Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Businesses should do anything they can to make a profit. Use specific reasons and examples to support your position.
----------------------------------
I do not agree with the statement that businesses should do anything they can to make a profit. No doubt a company or business may expand its scope by way of expansion, diversification, newer project, augmentation, mergers etc; in order to increase its turnover and thereby enhance proceeds, but a company or business can in no way do anything at the cost of quality of their products and service to customers.
Primarily every company or business must have its “Quality Policy” well defined and documented. Said policy must be made known to the customers by displaying the same at a location of rich visibility in company’s premises. Every business or company must strictly adhere to said quality policy.
Now a day there is tremendous competition in business. At the same time equal amount of advancement is seen in technology too. Companies come out with various attractions to get more and more clients. The brightest example is that of cell phone manufactures and communication service providers. A cell phone has variety of changeable musical ring tones and hello tunes. A cell phone can be used as a camera, sound recorder, calculator, stop watch, message sender and receiver, email sender and receiver and it can also be used as a personal computer with gigantic storing capacity and memory. Likewise all other businesses e.g. hospitality, airlines, medical care etc now provide variety of very attractive product and service. In a way world over now, sellers monopoly has ended. Now it is buyers market and not sellers market.
In conclusion to be in business, now the companies cannot do whatever they like to increase the profit. Now for the companies, only customer satisfaction is not enough, they have to strive for the customer delight.

“School Uniforms”
Some high schools require all students to wear school uniforms. Other high schools permit students to decide what to wear to school. Which of these two school policies do you think is better? Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
--------------------------------------
School uniforms are most common in primary and secondary schools in many nations. They are the most widely and popularly known as student uniform. Some other types of these include uniforms worn by students participating in higher vocational training, such as in health care occupations.
Traditionally, school uniforms have been subdued and professional. Boys' uniforms often consist of dark colored trousers and light colored shirt and a tie. Girls' uniforms vary greatly from country to country and schooling systems there, but typically girl’s uniforms consist of a dress or a blouse worn either with a skirt, culottes or under a pinafore. Gender-specific uniforms have been a point of contention, with some schools permitting female students to choose either skirts or trousers while still requiring male students to wear trousers. The use of a blazer or suit-like jacket for either gender is also fairly common, especially in cold weather.
School dress codes dictate what cannot be worn by any student, such as sheer or midriff-baring tops, clothing that advertises tobacco or alcohol or the T-shirts having arousing captions like sexy, slippery while wet, kiss me twice, hot stuff and many alike. Such type of dresses diverts attention of fellow students and cause disturbances in studies.
In conclusion, uniforms are the sign of discipline that is most important in education field. Uniforms are used in army, police, navy, air force, and many more. Uniforms create a feeling of unity, oneness and fellowship. Uniforms elevate and boost up the spirits hence uniforms are used in forces and sport events too. Hence uniforms in schools, colleges and universities must be welcome.

“Research to Improve Working Conditions”
Enormous effort is put into researching & marketing “The Perfect Potato Crisp”, while research into stress at work, for example, is ignored.
How important are the staff working conditions? Should employers research and improve the working condition of their staff or should they concentrate more on their product?
-----------------------------
The staff is the human resource that is the most precious asset for any company; and safe working conditions are most important. Hence companies must not only concentrate on to the production but also on to improving working conditions for the staff.
Production of perfect potato crisp is the job involved in a food industry. A major difficulty in food industry producing potato crisp can be good housekeeping. Stale and spoiled raw material must be disposed off promptly. Bad housekeeping attracts cockroaches, rats, and mosquitoes etc. This results into health hazards for the workers. It can also cause accidents by way of workers slipping on floors thereby causing injury or fractures.
Three main resources for any industry are “Man, Money & Material”. Men are most precious asset. Hence utmost care must be exercised for the safety of the workers, otherwise production shall be paralyzed. With the time, working conditions change, and it is essential for the management to continue research and improve working conditions from time to time.
I know of giant Oil Company of India that is highly Safety oriented. The company has a wonderful Fire & Safety Department fully equipped to combat any big fire. This company keeps researching on Fire & Safety practices and it is recipient of numerous International Safety Awards. It has fully equipped Medical Department for the medical help to the workers and their dependents. This company provides safest working conditions to the employees. The company is high profit making company that is listed in international magazine “FORTUNE-500”.
In conclusion safety is most important hence companies must research into the area of safety and improve it. Absence of safe working conditions can cause accidents and health hazards to workers thereby paralyzing the work and cause production losses.

----------------------------------
Giving and receiving gifts is one of the ancient customs that have been preserved throughout time and now, in the age of modern technology, has reached its climax.

Wrist watch upon completion of 15 years of service, silver coin on completion of 20 years, gold coin upon completion of 25 years and two gold coins upon completion of 35 years of service. I am also a recipient of those. Those gifts are given incentives and admiration an employee’s dedicated service to the corporation. These gifts boost the morale of an employee.
