Does Flexibility of Employee–Management Relationship Influence the Operational Performance of Firms? A Case Study
Authors: Agarwall Himanshu , Das Chandrika Prasad , Swain Rabindra Kumar
Published: June 2019

Employee turnover (ET) is a function of the employee–management relationship. To some extent it is good for the organization as it injects new blood and enhances productivity through innovations and creativity. Still, a gap exists between an employee–management relationship due to various factors such as comfort zone of employee and management. However, to a certain extent, such gaps are bearable, but beyond a specific degree of ET, it may have an adverse effect on the firms’ operations and performance. Our study aims to measure the influence of this flexibility in employee–management relationship beyond tolerable limit on the operational performance of firms with special reference to Tata Consultancy Services over the period of 2005–2018. We have applied descriptive statistics to understand the basic features of the relationship between employees and management. Simple linear regression model has been used to determine the relationship and influence of ET on operational performance, and owner’s equity. Our study revealed that ET explains significantly about net sales to total assets, net profit to total assets and operating profit to total assets. However, ET does not influence much of the net worth of the business.
Standardizing Opioid Prescribing Practices for Cancer-Related Pain Via a Novel Interactive Documentation Template at a Public Hospital
Authors: Nusrat Maliha , Parkes Amanda , Kieser Ryan , Hu Bei , Farhat Dalia , Rieber Alyssa , Ma Hilary
Published: June 2019

PURPOSE:

Opioid misuse during cancer pain management places patients at risk for harm and physicians for legal liability. Identifying and monitoring patients who are at risk is challenging given the lack of validated clinical tools and evidence-based guidelines. In the current study, we aimed to standardize opioid prescribing practices at a community oncology clinic to help ensure patient safety and physician compliance with Texas state regulations.

METHODS:

We used the Plan-Do-Study-Act methodology. In the planning phase, current practices of assessing opioid efficacy, toxicity, and misuse were determined by surveying clinic physicians and reviewing patients’ charts. We developed a new standardized process that incorporated published literature, the Texas Administrative Code, and expert opinion. Two interactive documentation templates (SmartPhrases) were designed to implement the standardized process. The intervention was studied using repeat physician surveys and chart reviews, which prompted action for refinement and sustainability.

RESULTS:

At baseline, 9% of providers followed a systematic approach to prescribing opioids and 86% expressed an interest in process standardization. We noted high interprovider variability in the opioid risk stratification and refill process. At 2 months and 6 months postimplementation, provider satisfaction with the intervention was 83% and 75%, whereas compliance with SmartPhrase use was 70% and 54%, respectively. The frequency of state database check improved from 36% to 94% at 6 months. Improvement was also noted in assessment and documentation of baseline risk, chemical coping, and toxicity.

CONCLUSION:

We implemented a systematic approach for assessing opioid misuse, toxicity, and efficacy during cancer pain management at a community oncology clinic. The approach resulted in notable improvement in provider practices and documentation compliance.
The Cowardly Jew they Forgot to Gas: The Phenomenon of Dutch Post-liberation Antisemitism and Some Continuities
Authors: Gans Evelien
Published: June 2019

This article elaborates on two antisemitic stereotypes or phenomena that show how the Shoah was turned against the Jews as early as 1945. The curse “they forgot to gas you” popped up immediately after the war, during all kind of public rows on the street with Jewish employers and neighbours. It was, so to say, the first antisemitic post-Holocaust stereotype that sent the Jewish survivor – verbally – to the gas chamber. Several Jews took cases to court. The insult “they forgot to gas you” was taken more seriously by Jews themselves and punished more severely by the court than the simple insult “filthy Jew”. The identification of “the Jew” and the gas chamber never disappeared but lives on – also within the football world, satire and anti-Israel demonstrations. It is a manifestation of what Theodor Adorno coined Schuld- und Erinnerungsabwehrantisemitismus (antisemitism based on a rejection of guilt and unwelcome memories). The same goes for the accusation that, during the German occupation, the Jews had offered no, or not enough, resistance against the Nazis. Others had to fight for them. Jews were neither fighters nor heroes; they depended on the courage of gentiles. Also this stereotype of the passive, obedient Jew would persist, for example, in a final school examination paper in 1983 and in some recent Dutch historiography on the Second World War and the Shoah. In this way the Shoah functioned as a point of fixation for postliberation – and more generally – postwar antisemitism.
Personal Experiences in Post-Shoah Greece: The Case of Isaak Menahem Rousso
Authors: Droumpouki Anna Maria
Published: June 2019

In December 1971, twelve years after his first letter to the West German government, 73-year-old Isaak Menahem Rousso exclaimed: “I ask you, what did I do to you for you to destroy my wealth, my shops? You killed my parents, and now you want to pay me a pittance”? The article focuses on the individual struggle of a Jewish survivor to receive compensation from the Federal Republic of Germany, as can be traced in the personal archive of Isaak Menahem Rousso. It examines the numerous letters he sent to German officials during the 1960s and 1970s, documents and contextualises his feelings of despair, fear and anger, and elucidates upon them. These feelings are typical for the Greek Jewish survivors that sought compensation. Survivors complained that the claims evaluation process constituted an unpleasant and inhumane experience. Many found it very difficult to return to the past and remember their suffering, as some of them already felt guilt or shame for having survived, not to mention the pain that reliving these traumatic experiences incurred. Many victims suffered from post-traumatic disorders and it was not easy to revive these experiences. Through Isaak Menahems’ story, I want to explore the survivors’ feelings in their search for recognition and compensation.
The Emergence and Construction of the Memory of the Shoah in Greece (1945–2015): From Oblivion to Memory
Authors: Varon-Vassard Odette
Published: June 2019

The genocide of the Greek Jews was almost total, with the extermination rate of more than 80 percent much higher than in most Western European countries. Nonetheless, the decades that followed the end of the war, the liberation of the camps and the difficult return of the survivors were ones of silence. Greece was no exception to the oblivion that shrouded the event for decades internationally. On the contrary, compared to other Western countries, there was a longer delay in recognising this memory at the level of both the state and of society. If it was established internationally in the 1980s, this memory (and the associated historical studies and publication of testimonies) in Greece began in the early 1990s. Since 2004, the interest of the state began to manifest itself in practice. Even so, the question remains whether this memory has been recorded in the collective memory of Greek society. This article attempts to outline the long and painful course from oblivion and silence to the emergence and reconstruction of the cultural memory of the Shoah in Greece, noting the most significant events that it comprises.
The Return of the Jews: Jewish Owners of Amsterdam Real Estate and the Ground Rent, 1938–1949
Authors: Houwink ten Cate Johannes
Published: June 2019

The most recent public discussion on the return of deported Jews to the Netherlands took place in April 2013. On 30 March of that year, the Amsterdam daily Het Parool broke the forgotten story of how Amsterdam municipality in 1947 had imposed a fine of 3 percent per year on Jewish leaseholders, upon their return from Nazi captivity or from hiding, on any ground rent arrears that had accrued in their absence. The two authors who have written most extensively on this topic, Hinke Piersma and Jeroen Kemperman, have wrongly interpreted this fine as a typical example of the lack of solidarity of the municipality with the persecuted Jews. My findings – based on the original documents – suggest pretty much the exact opposite: the decision by local Amsterdam politicians to reduce these fines from six to three percent for Jews in particular was in reaction to Jewish protests and intended as a symbolic gesture to acknowledge the plight of the persecuted and decimated Jews.

Association between umbilical cord hygiene and neonatal sepsis among neonates presenting to a primary care facility in Nairobi County, Kenya: a case-control study
Authors: Moraa Phoebe K. , Mweu Marshal M. , Njoroge Peter K.
Published: June 2019

Background:Three-quarters of all annual neonatal deaths in developing countries are attributable to neonatal sepsis. In primary care settings, poor cord hygiene due to improper handling of the infant’s cord is a major contributor to the occurrence of neonatal sepsis. The objective of this study was to describe the umbilical cord practices among mothers attending a primary care facility, assess the relationship between umbilical cord hygiene and neonatal sepsis, its impact on the population, as well as the influence of other neonatal and maternal factors on this relationship.

Methods:A case-control study was conducted to assess the umbilical cord hygiene-neonatal sepsis relationship among neonates attending a primary care facility between August and October 2018. All cases were selected, while controls were systematically random sampled, as per study eligibility criteria. Exposure variables were summarized using descriptive statistics. A multivariable logistic regression model was fitted to evaluate the association between umbilical cord hygiene and neonatal sepsis adjusting for the effect of potential confounders. Subsequently, a population attributable fraction (PAF) was estimated.

Results:The proportion of mothers with improper hygiene was 35.3%: 72.1% among the cases and 16.3% among the controls’ caregivers. The odds of neonatal sepsis were 13 times higher (OR=13.24; 95% CI: [7.5; 23.4]) among infants whose caregivers had improper hygiene compared to those who had proper hygiene. None of the neonatal and maternal covariates confounded the umbilical cord hygiene-neonatal sepsis association. This odds ratio gave a PAF of 66.7% (95% CI: 62.5; 69.03).

Conclusions:Improper cord hygiene is prevalent in this low resource setting. Improper cord hygiene has a strong positive association with neonatal sepsis. Observing good cord care practices could avert up to 67% of newborn infections. This calls for inclusion of good cord care practices in the antenatal care educational package.

The Role of Personnel Marketing in the Formation of Competitive Advantages of the Enterprise
Authors: Малышев Алексей , Malyshev Aleksey
Published: June 2019

The article reveals the role of marketing personnel in shaping the competitive advantages of an enterprise, and approaches to the essence of marketing staff of various authors are considered. A model of personnel marketing has been developed in the formation of a competitive advantage of an enterprise based on elements of a systematic, process, and situational approach. At the first stage, this model implies the definition of enterprise goals, the study of personnel marketing and, on the basis of this, the formation of competitive advantages. At the second stage, the goals of personnel marketing and their implementation are determined; this stage is characterized by the admission of an employee to a specific position and his adaptation in the workplace at the enterprise. In turn, the adaptation includes: acquaintance with the organization and units, introduction to the position and conduct of primary education. The employee works on probation, after which he passes certification. Then the employee starts the employee in the appointed position. If job descriptions involve the development of certain competencies that the employee does not possess, then he needs to undergo training and certification. Positive certification of a specialist allows him to successfully work in his position and be appointed to the internal reserve of the enterprise. After assignment to the personnel reserve, career planning follows. Continuing careers and raising the qualifications of an employee and comparing the results of a learning assessment lead to the goal of this model, which increases employee productivity through an effective personnel marketing system. This model can be applicable for all enterprises and any industry. The model will: improve the competitiveness of the enterprise; strengthen competitive advantages; achieve the strategic objectives of the enterprise; increase the value of the workforce; to form and effectively develop the organizational culture of the enterprise; increase the efficiency of the communication process; improve the adaptability of the enterprise to changes in the external environment; to form an effective motivational policy of the enterprise; increase the attractiveness of the enterprise.

The training manual consistently addresses issues starting with the formation of sediments, their processing and further disposal or liquidation. Particular attention is paid to the processing and disposal of microbial biomass of excess activated sludge. The reasons for solving the problem of disposal of sewage sludge and activated sludge, which is largely hampered by the presence of toxic impurities, including heavy metals, as well as by the still poorly developed methods of processing these difficult dehydrated systems are set out in sufficient detail.
For the first time in the scientific and technical literature, various factors affecting the process of compaction and subsequent thickening of activated sludge and its utilization, in particular the mode of growing microbial biomass, as well as its preliminary preparation using physical and chemical methods are considered.
Possible cases of utilization or liquidation of various sewage sludge, including by burning in special furnaces, are described quite widely.
Much attention is paid to the selection of the best technologies for dewatering sewage sludge, including excess activated sludge, as well as their disposal. Considered foreign experience, including the Scandinavian countries, the treatment and disposal of sewage sludge as an organic fertilizer.
Possible cases of utilization or liquidation of various sewage sludge, including by burning in special furnaces, are described quite widely.

Published: June 2019

An ever-increasing number of pets, particularly dogs, are travelling from and back to the UK with their owners, in addition to new pets being brought in having been acquired outside the UK (often as ‘rescues’), and puppies bred outside the UK and imported legally or illegally. Such pet travel risks the importation of a variety of diseases that generally have not been present in the UK. Veterinary surgeons need to be aware of the risks associated with pet travel, and have a good understanding of these diseases. ESCCAP is an excellent source of information on parasites. To protect animal health, it is necessary to go well beyond the Pet Travel Scheme requirements. It is important to be able to provide owners with the best advice and preventative treatments to minimise the risks of pets acquiring parasitic, vector-borne and other diseases while travelling — for their benefit and for the longer-term health and welfare of the UK pet population, as well as the health of the human population. For any disease prevention or control programme to be effective, awareness and motivation must be raised, and for this, communication is key. It is vital to tailor the language used to match the audience in order for any message to be heard and accepted, and it is essential to remember the emotional attachment that people develop for animals they are ‘rescuing’.

548. Contribución al estudio del sector de los biocarburantes en España
Authors: Espejo Marín Cayetano , Millán Piñero Diego , García Marín Ramón
Published: June 2019

La implantación y desarrollo de las industrias de producción de biocarburantes en España ha venido motivada por las políticas de fomento del consumo de estos productos en el sector de la automoción. Desde el comienzo de su actividad, el sobredimensionamiento de la capacidad instalada y las importaciones masivas de países productores de las materias primas necesarias han sido dos factores clave que han provocado la infrautilización de las plantas de producción y el cierre de una gran parte durante los últimos años. También ha contribuido a esta situación la caída en el consumo de productos petrolíferos para la automoción, provocada por la crisis económica.
550. El soporte logístico de la especialización económica de Andalucía durante el primer tercio del siglo XX
Authors: Sánchez Picón Andrés , Cuéllar Villar Domingo
Published: June 2019

Los cambios en el transporte de mercancías durante el siglo XIX conllevaron unas mejoras significativas en las prestaciones de los diferentes modos de transporte. Sin embargo, estas evoluciones no solucionaban el problema completamente y fue necesario integrar las diferentes cadenas de transporte en una sola, que diera continuidad con la mayor eficiencia posible al flujo de mercancías para reducir los costes de transporte y los tiempos de viaje, y aumentar los volúmenes de carga y el valor de las mercancías en los mercados de destino. La economía andaluza entró en el primer tercio del siglo XX en este proceso, a través de una nueva etapa de especialización económica basada en la explotación de sus recursos naturales. Se desarrolló entonces un potente sector agroalimentario y su industria asociada (aceite, azúcar, vino, etc.), y se alcanzó también el máximo apogeo en la demanda de materias primas minerales.Lograr esa especialización económica requirió una profunda modernización logística, una relativamente rápida modernización de las redes de tráfico y un incremento de los intercambios entre los diferentes modos de transporte.
553. Consecuencias sociales del modelo económico basado en el crédito. Geografía de las ejecuciones hipotecarias en Menorca
Authors: Vives Miró Sònia , Rullan Onofre , González Pérez Jesús M.
Published: June 2019

El proceso de perdida de la vivienda que está sacudiendo a parte de la población con consecuencia de ejecuciones hipotecarias se entiende como parte de una estrategia de desposesión y cercamiento que la literatura al uso ha llamado new urban enclosures. Para analizar el proceso se presenta el caso de Menorca donde se analizan las ejecuciones hipotecarias con diferentes grados de resolución geográfica, llegando a la escala de dirección postal. El análisis se vincula a la política crediticia que alimentó la burbuja y con la geografía de los diferentes estatus sociales de la isla. Los resultados muestran cómo las ciudades, y en ellas las zonas de estatus social menor, es donde el proceso de desposesiones de viviendas por ejecuciones hipotecarias ha sido mayor, mientras que en las zonas rurales con zonas donde reside población con estatus social más heterogéneo el impacto de la crisis ha sido menor.
573. Le grand jeu à venir. Un manifiesto educativo a partir del discurso situacionista sobre lo urbano
Authors: Bonastra Quim , Jové Monclús Glòria
Published: June 2019

Este texto explora las posibilidades que ofrece hoy el discurso situacionista sobre lo urbano en el campo de la educación y pretende discernir si éste nos sirve, a principios del siglo XXI, como caja de herramientas en nuestro devenir como educadores y formadores de futuros maestros en el siglo XXI. En este sentido, los proyectos que desarrollamos con nuestros estudiantes nos servirán, a lo largo del texto, de eje vertebrador de nuestro discurso. Se trata de proyectos que sitúan la mirada en el entorno próximo, en los lugares vividos, en la ciudad…, que necesariamente se implican en la comunidad, y que harán de puente entre dos marcos conceptuales aparentemente desvinculados, el del discurso urbano situacionista y el de la educación.
574. Producción de espacio en la expansión neoliberal
Authors: Morcillo Álvarez Daniel
Published: June 2019

Tras dos décadas de expansión neoliberal, la crisis iniciada en 2007 parece haber puesto en entredicho la forma de producir la ciudad y los niveles de competencia espacial que estaban dándose, en especial entre el centro y la periferia urbanas. La atención puesta en las consecuencias que sobre el soporte físico y morfológico se producía en las periferias, relegó el estudio de los centros urbanos, de su desarrollo y de su papel en la producción neoliberal de espacio. Por ello, parece pertinente preguntarse qué estaba ocurriendo en ellos, en concreto en la Almendra Central de Madrid, mientras se daba la expansión de la periferia. El análisis morfológico de las geografías de acumulación de capital, económico, simbólico y social, nos aventura una intensificación de los valores de elitización y competencia durante los años previos a la crisis, aparentemente consolidados en el discurso urbano actual
555. El urbanismo como acto de comunicación. Theodora Kimball Hubbard y la Biblioteca de la Harvard Landscape Architecture School
Authors: García González María Cristina , Guerrero Salvador
Published: June 2019

La bibliotecaria Theodora Kimball (1887-1935) contribuyó significativamente a la consolidación del urbanismo como nuevo ámbito disciplinar con el establecimiento de unos criterios de clasificación de la amalgama de conocimientos, conceptos, utillaje técnico y experiencias que surgieron en las tres primeras décadas del siglo XX. Se favorecía así la formación de una literatura específica que permitiera una mayor presencia del urbanismo tanto en los círculos académicos como en los ámbitos profesionales. Su trabajo, desarrollado en la Biblioteca de la Landscape Architecture School de la Universidad de Harvard, constituye uno de los principales nodos norteamericanos de las redes trasnacionales del urbanismo de su tiempo. Fue clave en ámbitos como la formación universitaria, la divulgación científica, la participación ciudadana, la irrupción del zoning como nueva herramienta de control del desarrollo urbano frente al city planning y el paso del landscape architecture al regional planning.

Face à crise ambiental e urbana, a abordagem de “cidade sustentável” tornou-se parte do discurso político hegemônico para competir por investimentos. O planejamento estratégico vende a imagem de uma cidade ideal, reconfigurada, reformada, revitalizada através de rankings de melhores cidades. Entre as pautas da requalificação urbana está a mobilidade. Walkability, livability, bikefriendly são algumas dessas representações, porém, as consequências sociais advindas desse processo não estão sendo discutidas. Na eminência da elaboração dos planos de mobilidade nas cidades brasileiras, este artigo analisa o crescente interesse na mobilidade urbana sob três abordagens: o investimento em grandes obras de infraestrutura para a mobilidade por ocasião da Copa do Mundo no Brasil.
Administration of Islamic Law and Human Rights: The Basis and Its Trajectory in Malaysia

This paper looks at the interplay between the administration of Islamic law in Malaysia in relation to Islamic family law and Islamic criminal law; and human rights. The paper examines the basis of the administration of Islam in Malaysia in relation to its history and post-independence mandate. It looks at the position of human rights under the Federal Constitution and the position of the administration of Islamic law under the constitutional framework. The research found that entrenching fundamental liberties through the supremacy clause resulted in the prevalence of human rights over freedom of religion. However, this is not consistently arrived at since the constitutional frameworks allows for plurality of laws and exclusion of personal law from the principle of equality.[artikel ini membahas kelindan antara administrasi hukum islam, hukum keluarga islam, hukum pidana islam, dan HAM di Malaysia.

Polemics on Interfaith Marriage in Indonesia between Rules and Practices
Authors: Suhasti Ermi , Djazimah Siti , Hartini Hartini
Published: June 2019

The Indonesian rules on marriage manage that a marriage is required to be one faith marriage, i.e., a man and woman to embrace the same religion, and prohibits interfaith marriage. However, in practice interfaith marriage is concluded and the couple of such marriage struggled to conduct the marriage and to have the marriage legitimized. One of the ways is to propose a designation or decree from the civil court to officially allow them to marry and to mandate the Civil Marriage Registrar to register their marriages. This article discusses the practice of interfaith marriages based on the permission from the civil courts’ judges in Surakarta. Deploying the socio-legal approach and based on interviews with some relevant persons and on the observation on a number of civil courts’ decrees, this article finds that there are interfaith marriages in Indonesia and interfaith couple struggled to get their marriages officially admitted and legalized by taking the advantage of the legal gap on the issue. This article also argues that there has been divergent legal interpretation within Indonesians which led to legal uncertainty regarding the rules of interfaith marriage in Indonesia.[Peraturan tentang perkawinan di Indonesia mengatur pernikahan satu agama. Pernikahan harus antara wanita dan laki-laki Muslim dan larangan pernikahan beda agama. Banyak praktik pernikahan melakukan ikatan beda agama.

Pengadilan memberikan ijin pernikahan beda agama dan mandat kepada pegawai Pencatat Sipil untuk dicatatankan sebagai pernikahan. Artikel ini mengkaji praktik pernikahan beda agama melalui penetapan Pengadilan Negeri di Surakarta. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan sosiologi hukum dengan wawancara dan analisa terhadap beberapa penetapan dalam penyusunan paper. Artikel ini membahas pernikahan beda agama yang dilakukan masyarakat Indonesia yang mengalami kesulitan dan mengupayakan secara keras cara dalam pernikahan beda agama.

Teledetección aplicada al mapeo geomorfológico de los volcanes de la cuenca alta del río Chaschuil, provincia de Catamarca, Argentina
Authors: Malvina Serra , Herrera Carlos Gabriel , Niz Adriana Ediht
Published: June 2019

Contexto: La cuenca alta del río Chaschuil se encuentra en las provincias geomorfológicas de codillera Frontal y sistema de Famatina, se extiende desde el límite superior de la cuenca, a los 26° 45' 6,35" de latitud S y 68° 2'22 15" de longitud O, hasta el volcán Aguas Calientes, a los 27° 13' 25,81" de latitud S y 68° 19'5 48" de longitud O. La zona se inserta en el Cinturón de Fuego del Pacífico, que se caracteriza por concentrar algunas zonas de subducción más importantes del mundo, donde se genera una intensa actividad sísmica y volcánica.

Método: A través de operaciones estadísticas y numéricas aplicadas sobre los datos de las matrices que componen una imagen satelital, se generó la cartografía geomorfológica volcánica. Para dicho análisis, se utilizó el software libre SoPI 3.0, en el que se procesaron las imágenes satelitales Landsat 7 y 8, de los años 2002 y 2015. La cartografía fue elaborada en el software libre QGIS 3.2.2, con el apoyo del software libre Google Earth Pro.

Resultados: Los mejores resultados del procesamiento digital se dieron en las bandas de rango visible y mediante distintas combinaciones de bandas en RGB. Se describen 13 aparatos volcánicos principales, altamente erosionados, con lavas pahoehoe asociadas; y erupciones secundarias, con lavas rugosas tipo aa sobrepuestas a las lavas más fluidas.

Conclusiones: La aplicación del procesamiento digital de imágenes satelitales es una herramienta óptima para el estudio de estructuras volcánicas, que permite su delimitación y clasificación.

Academic procrastination has been one of the major problems among students from different levels of education, specifically for college students. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of problem solving skill, a kind of cognitive skill, as well as academic motivation on academic procrastination behaviors of university students. In this explanatory correlational research study, 509 college students who enrolled in an extensive English language program at a public university in Turkey were included. As data collection tools, Tuckman procrastination scale, academic motivation scale and problem solving skill inventory were used. After testing our proposed theory through Structural Equation Modelling (SEM), we found that problem solving skill had a strong effect on academic procrastination. We provided evidence showing that academic procrastination was a function of problem solving skill and academic motivation, rather than driven by intrinsic or extrinsic motivation. The current study emphasizes that academic procrastination behavior is related to the problem solving skill and presents a different perspective that should be taken into consideration in dealing with academic procrastination behaviors.
