...Society and culture factors have created new marketing behaviors in today’s society (Kotler & Keller, 2012, p. 12). The responsibility of social and culture factors has an effect on the productivity of a company’s product and services.

...OCD Over compulsive disorder is a neurobiological anxiety disorder which can become a potentially disabling illness. OCD is characterized by uncontrollable, unwanted thoughts and repetitive, ritualized behaviors that people are compelled to perform. People with OCD are able to recognize that their obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors are irrational, however they are unable to resist them and break free. Obsessions are involuntary, uncontrollable thoughts, images, or impulses that occur over and over again in your mind. These obsessive thoughts are often disturbing and distracting. Compulsions are behaviors or rituals that you feel driven to act out again and again usually performed in an attempt to make obsessions go away. However, the obsessions don’t exactly go away, carrying out these rituals only provides temporary relief and must be repeated when the obsession returns. Not everyone has an observable ritual, the logic behind a covert ritual is if they think about it enough the thought will eventually disappear. If a person stops performing these rituals it can cause a great deal of anxiety that only results in endless cycles of repetitive thoughts and behaviors. Although the cause of obsessive compulsive disorder is not fully understood, there are biological and environmental factors that can trigger it. Research has found a link between low levels of Serotonin and OCD and evidence shows that a serotonin imbalance may be passed on from parents to children so the tendency...

...company. The three main domains affected by this policy are the User Domain, Workstation Domain, and the LAN Domain. The User Domain is anyone who accesses the company’s information system and is the weakest link in the infrastructure. Users will be strictly held to the acceptable use policy (AUP) which acts as a guidebook for what users are allowed to do with the company’s IT assets. Violation of the AUP can be grounds for immediate dismissal and/or legal actions. Any third party that may need access to our systems will need to adhere to these policies as well and will need to sign an agreement before any access is given. The Human Resources department will be responsible for ensuring that all employees have signed an agreement to the AUP. All employees must pass a background check and their identities verified by HR before any access to Richman’s systems are granted. The Workstation Domain is where most users will connect to Richman’s IT infrastructure. This includes all desktops, laptops, PDAs, smartphones, and tablets. No personal devices or removable media will be allowed to connect to Richman’s system. Any devices or removable media needed to conduct business will be issued by Richman’s IT department and be used for official matters only. Once HR has verified that the person has passed all identity and background checks they will inform the IT department of what access to the system the position requires. The IT department will ensure that a username and password are set up and...

...conclusion we’ll present our analysis to the President along with the recommendations needed to implement a better system of internal control. Issues: There’s an issue with too much responsibility placed on one employee. The accountant serving as the controller and treasurer creates a problem with documentation as you don’t have anyone to verify cash and revenue is accounted for correctly. It’s too easy for one employee to manipulate the books in his favor without a clear segregation of duties. The accountant is leaving checks in his office during the week exposing sensitive information and increasing the risk of theft in the office without securing the checks prior to leaving for the weekend. Access to petty cash is not regulated effectively due to lack of security and poor documentation. There’s a lack of human resource presence in order to complete a competent interview process and extensive background checks on all employees prior to employment. The infrastructure of the company has...

...number 594 concerns revolutionizing existing criminal and public safety background checks by licensed dealers to encompass all firearm sales and transfers by incorporating gun show, private sales, and online sales. With this measure to be voted on the ballot on November 4, 2014, there are some exemptions permitted for family, police (local and federal), military, and those in imminent danger. (Voters' Pamphlet) Cherie and I have put together this planning guide to give us the opportunity to think about the upcoming negotiation we have with Andrew and Ryan regarding the measure 594 and our thoughts. This measure is a topic that is relevant to the regional area as the vote is only a few weeks away. Background checks for gun transfers is being discussed in many forums, around many dinner tables, and the supporters of both sides of the measures are bombarding the voters with commercials, mailings, and phone calls to ensure knowledge of the measure and to sway the voters to their side. Cherie and I are mindful that the better the planning, the better the probabilities of a successful negotiation and thus are taking advantage of this opportunity and time to investigate the many facets to shield the public from unnecessary carnage in an effort to protect our society. 1.

...The Boys and Girls Club of Metro Atlanta. From past experience until this very day there needs to be more strict background checks implemented when it comes to the basis of hiring volunteers and employees. If a stronger hiring process is not implemented I really feel that this location of the Boys and Girls in Metro Atlanta will be in a crisis because the wrong individual(s) were perhaps mentoring young adolescents that shouldn’t be. If this continues this could ultimately crush the dreams and aspirations of young mind. Today in 2014 there is a new generation when it comes to technology, and it’s improving each and every day of our lives. So it wouldn’t be a bad idea to take opinions and suggestions from the public within the community area of Metro Atlanta. Atlanta isn’t really a big place for the most part, and everybody knows everybody as it may seem scarily strange. These surveys could deliver information about the needs of The Boys and Girls Club of Metro Atlanta, a comments section for the public, and ideas and information that they can share to better the individuals that mentor the young adolescents within the community. So the question is are the children safe and can parents put trust in the organization when it comes to their children. Discussing the analysis portions of my paper I want to touch basis on not only implementing a firmer background check but also implementing stress tests as well as psychological test as well to be aware if an individual actually...

...disabilities. As the circumstances in the situation suggest, Leonel and the other applicants were offered employment that was contingent upon passing background checks and medical examinations. The hinging factor was that American Airlines decided to have the applicants complete the medical examinations first before the also required background checks. FindLaw.com says this about the case: "When employers rescind offers made conditional on both non-medical and medical contingencies, applicants cannot easily discern or challenge the grounds for rescission. When medical considerations are isolated, however, applicants know when they have been denied employment on medical grounds and can challenge an allegedly unlawful denial." (Findlaw, 2016) This is the mistake that American Airlines made. They allowed the circumstances to dictate how their procedures were carried out. At the least they should have waited to rescind the offers of employment until after all examinations were completed. This might have provided more of a covering and could have prevented this type of lawsuit. However, as stated by the ADA in our textbook "Employers may require a medical examination only after a job offer has been made. The job offer may be made contingent upon passing the medical test, so the test must be administered after all other hiring information is obtained and found satisfactory." (Melvin & Katz, n.d.) So the mistake was not in having the applicants complete the...
