Public TV programming decisions seem to be unpredictable, so Build –Rite cannot estimate the probability of continued benefits from it relationship with the show.

...Executive Summery There are number of factors behind the rising trend of inflation in Bangladesh. The factors contributed the most in the rise hike of essential items, particularly food, are slow growth in agriculture, rise in the world prices of food items, sharp depreciation of taka against US dollar and especially against the Indian rupee, and rise in the prices of diesel and kerosene. These causes affect our general people directly. As per capita GDP is not responding with inflation, purchasing power of people has shrunk drastically. Food inflation is causing more problems for rural people than urban people. And loss of Taka’s value is making people go down class hierarchy. We recommend that Bangladesh Bank should take necessary steps to reduce inflation rate. We have to be concerned about devaluation of our currency. Inflation is a complex, dynamic process which cannot be comprehended simply through occasional debates or newspaper articles. Rigorous research is needed to understand inflation dynamics and its implications for monetary policy. Much of the responsibilities lay within the purview of local universities, policy institutes, and in particular the Bangladesh Bank. Table of Contents Introduction Inflation is an increase in the amount of currency in circulation, resulting in a relatively sharp and sudden fall in its value and rise in prices: it may be caused by an increase in the volume of paper money issued or of gold mined, or a relative increase in expenditures...

[er. ye@vepeea Dr. G. D. Banerjee DeeefLe&keÀ efJeMues50% 71 Chapter - VIII Impact of REDP The present chapter makes an attempt to assess the impact of REDP training. The impact of REDPs is measured in terms of (i) the number of new enterprises created by REDP trainees, (ii) the creation of new enterprises with and without wage employment, (iii) annual employment generation, (iv) annual incremental income and (iv) attainment of success rate. Thus, the impact of REDP is ascertained on the basis of changes in income and employment as a result of creation of new enterprises. The economics of REDPs is assessed with particular reference to costs and benefits of REDP. Cost includes expenditure incurred per trainee by agencies imparting REDPs, while benefits are taken into account as addition to value of produce and net surplus generated annually. The emphasis of the analysis was on major activities and agencies of the selected districts. Attempts were also made to estimate the Financial Rate of Return (FRR) of the Entrepreneurship Development Programme keeping in view NABARD’s financial contribution on the expenditure side and average net incremental income on income side. Impact of REDP 1. Enterprises set up with and without Wage...

...A STUDY ON THE EMPLOYABILITY AND ATTITUDE OF EMPLOYERS, TOWARDS EMPLOYING EX-PRISONERS AND EX-OFFENDERS AS PERCEIVED BY HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGERS IN ORTIGAS PASIG CITY Prepared By: Ms. Marilyn Dimaculangan CHAPTER I THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND INTRODUCTION It is well known that employment is an important need of most individuals; it provides income, social connection, and feelings of societal contribution and self worth. What may be less well known are the barriers to employment faced by those with criminal record, the challenges faced by employers in hiring ex-offenders and what can be done to facilitate employment opportunities as record numbers of people transition from incarceration to the community. A great number of employers are reluctant to hire individuals with a criminal past citing lack of skills and work history, untrustworthiness, and fear of liability for negligent hiring, among other things. Employers use of criminal history background checks over the past decades and they are less willing to hire ex-offenders that any other advantaged group. Their willingness to hire ex-prisoners varies according to the industry and position, the type and severity of offense committed by applicant and work experience since release. Employers are not always consistent in what they say versus what they do when it comes to hiring former offenders and prisoners Jail is a synonym for prison, especially when the facility is of a similar size as a prison. As with prisons...
