Economics of Unions The strike that involved 125 000 teachers in Ontario is a good example of how unions can impact the relations between employees and employers. During the strike, around 5,000 schools were closed. The objective of the four unions whose members were teachers based in Ontario was to send a message to the Ontario government regarding their views on the reduction of funding of schools. The low funding and big classes were key issues that made the teachers strike. This case is also an eye-opener related to industrial relations in Canada. The industrial relation was widely used during World War II. The two reasons for its use are various war-time industries and the application of PC 1003 under the Federal Cabinet (Riddell, 1993). The Order-in-Council initiated the adoption of a model of industrial relations that was followed in Canada. The fundamental provisions of this model were the procedure of certification of unions and the responsibility for an employer during collective bargaining. In its broadest meaning, industrial revolutions entail all aspects that cover the relationship between employees and employers.…

Protection Masks- N95 vs Surgical Masks Surgical masks also known as face masks and N95 respirators are a category of personal protective gear whose function is to safeguard the user’s face from liquid contamination and airborne particles. While the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is ideal for one’s protection, it is essential to know that it takes a mix of different controls to prevent the transmission of airborne particles efficiently. It is easy to confuse an N95 respirator with a surgical mask. This is because these types of protection equipment look similar and words like ‘mask’ and ‘respirator’ are used interchangeably in reference to respiratory protection masks. However, wearing either of the respiratory protection devices does not come with an extra advantage, which is why other measures should be adopted. According to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the N95 respirators are not recommended as protective gear for respiratory diseases such as coronavirus (COVID-19). In light with the coronavirus global pandemic, the general public is advised to avoid exposure to this virus as the ideal way of…

The National Commission on Certification of Physical Assistants The National Commission on Certification of Physical Assistants (NCCPA) certifies physical therapist assistants to execute their mandate fully. Physical assistants are health professionals practicing medicine as team members under the supervision of physicians. They perform and offer multiple surgical and medical services to diverse populations, both in urban and rural settings. Licensed physical therapist assistants are therefore expected to educate and counsel patients, establish patient treatment plans, improve patient communication, perform patient physical examinations, evaluate and interpret patient diagnostic data (Platts et al. 262-273).

The examinations and procedures performed are aimed at ensuring high-quality diagnosis, prognosis, and care plans tailored to meet the patient’s needs (Gilliland et al. 499-511).…

Interview: The Inefficiency of Prisons to Deal with Mentally Ill Offenders Interview Questions Do you think that prisons serve a helpful purpose in trying to rehabilitate mentally ill offenders? What do you think happens to mentally ill offenders while in prison? Do you think our country has enough facilities to help rehabilitate mentally ill criminals and assimilate them into society? Have you ever interacted with a mentally ill person who was released from jail? If so, how did you feel around them? Suppose you were to have a mentally ill person just out of jail, living in your neighbourhood, what measures would you undertake to feel safe around them? Conducting the interviews I consider conducting in-person interviews as a more accurate way of gathering information for my research. With interviews, it’s easier to get the respondents’ opinions and perception about the issue in question, even through non-verbal communication (Sociology group, 2019). Since interviews are conducted in private, the respondent doesn’t feel shy from expressing their true feelings, and their responses are not influenced by others (Sociology group, 2019). It is…
