Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Responsabilidad Social Corporativa (RSC) es un tema de gran interés para las empresas en la actualidad, esperándose de ellas que sean responsables no sólo en lo económico y financiero, sino también asumiendo impactos sociales y medioambientales. Más aún, la RSC está pasando a ocupar una posición central en todo tipo de organizaciones como herramienta de comunicación con todos sus públicos internos y externos. Desde este encuadre, este trabajo analiza la RSC, así como los índices de RSC que nos van a permitir medir el grado de cumplimiento de ésta en las organizaciones. Estos conceptos se van a presentar en el caso de la empresa Sanitas. En la parte teórica, se define en primer lugar el marco conceptual y en segundo lugar, el marco referencial y realidad de la RSC, donde se desarrollarán diversos índices, tomando mayor importancia el Libro Verde de la Comisión Europea. En la parte empírica se lleva a cabo un estudio de caso de Sanitas, presentándose una descripción del mismo y del modelo práctico empleado en el trabajo. A continuación, en el capítulo de resultados se analizan tanto la dimensión externa como la interna de la RSC. Finalmente, se realiza una valoración del estudio de caso Sanitas, presentando las principales conclusiones del estudio, así como las correspondientes propuestas de mejora. Palabras clave: responsabilidad social corporativa, Stakeholders, Libro Verde, estudio de caso, Sanitas.

Download or read book La responsabilidad social de las empresas y los nuevos desaf os de la gesti n empresarial written by Tomás G. Perdiguero and published by Universitat de València. This book was released on 2005 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los textos que han sido recogidos en esta obra constituyen una valiosa aportación al debate sobre la Responsabilidad Social de las Empresas (RSE). En ellos se refleja la rica pluralidad de voces y posiciones que suscitan los nuevos valores de responsabilidad, tanto en el ámbito del pensamiento y la investigación académica, como en el de las políticas públicas, las organizaciones empresariales y sindicales y de los propios dirigentes de las empresas. Sin embargo esta pluralidad de lecturas y de posiciones es compatible con dos tipos de acuerdos esenciales. El primero es la aceptación de la necesidad de un enfoque más responsable de la gestión, firmemente comprometido con el cuidado del impacto económico, social y ambiental de las decisiones y actividades empresariales. El segundo se refiere al desarrollo de una nueva visión de la empresa, como una institución mucho más abierta a otras necesidades, intereses y expectativas diferentes a las de los propios gestores y accionistas, lo que exige la búsqueda de un equilibrio más equitativo entre los distintos grupos participantes en la actividad económica (stakeholders) Tomás G. Perdiguero es profesor titular de Comunicación Audiovisual y Publicidad en la Universidad Rey Juan Carlos de Madrid. Ha participado activamente en el debate europeo sobre la Responsabilidad Social de las Empresas. Entre sus principales contribuciones al desarrollo de la investigación en España sobre la RSE debe destacarse el libro La responsabilidad social de las empresas en un mundo global, finalista del Premio Anagrama de Ensayo en 2003. Es miembro del Grup d'Investigació sobre la RSE de la Universitat de València.

Download or read book Labics written by Maria Claudia Clemente and published by Park Publishing (WI). This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Labics, based in Rome, is a leader among Italy's up-and-coming architecture firms and has gained great international acclaim for submissions to competitions and a number of realized projects. This first-ever monograph on Labic's fast growing, impressive body of work features some twenty of their designs, representing the entire range of the firm's achievements. The selection comprises housing and office buildings, museums and cultural centers, schools, public spaces, and subway stations, located in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Finnland, Iran, Italy, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, and the UK. All are documented with atmospheric photographs and a wealth of plans and diagrams to illustrate concept and many details of each project. Structure, in a variety of notions of the term, is guiding Labics' approach. Consequently, the book is arranged in five chapters exploring geometric, bearing, circulation, public space, and urban and territorial structures in topical essays. This provides the frame for the featured projects, all of which exemplify the importance of the respective type of structure for Labics' work". (éditeur).
Download or read book Semantic Interoperability Issues Solutions Challenges written by Dr. Salvatore F. Pileggi and published by River Publishers. This book was released on 2012-03-13 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Semantic technologies are experimenting an increasing popularity in the context of different domains and applications. The understanding of any class of system can be significantly changed under the assumption any system is part of a global ecosystem known as Semantic Web. The Semantic Web would be an evolving extension of current Web model (normally referred as Syntactic Web) that introduces a semantic layer in which semantics, or meaning of information, are formally defined. So, semantics should integrate web-centric standard information infrastructures improving several aspects of interaction among heterogeneous systems. This is because common interoperability models are progressively becoming obsolete if compared with the intrinsic complexity and always more distributed focus that feature modern systems. For example, the basic interoperability model, that assumes the interchange of messages among systems without any interpretation, is simple but effective only in the context of close environments. Also more advanced models, such as the functional interoperability model that integrates basic interoperability model with the ability of interpreting data context under the assumption of a shared schema for data fields accessing, appears not able to provide a full sustainable technologic support for open systems. The Semantic Interoperability model would improve common interoperability models introducing the interpretation of means of data. Semantic interoperability is a concretely applicable interaction model under the assumption of adopting rich data models (commonly called Ontology) composed of concepts within a domain and the relationships among those concepts. In practice, semantic technologies are partially inverting the common view at actor intelligence: intelligence is not implemented (only) by actors but it is implicitly resident in the knowledge model. In other words, schemas contain information and the “code” to interpret it.

This book was released on 2016-07-20 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we help students work effectively with others from diverse cultural backgrounds? How do we help them understand the world? How do we prepare them for work and life in an era of globalization, volatility, and uncertainty? Empowering Global Citizens offers educators and parents compelling answers to those questions. This book presents The World Course, a curriculum on global citizenship education designed to equip students with the competencies they need to thrive and contribute to sustainable development in an era of globalization. Drawing on curriculum mapping this book offers a coherent and rigorous set of instructional units to support deep learning of twenty-first-century competencies that develop agency, imagination, confidence, and the skills to navigate the complexity of our times. Drawing on a rich conceptual framework of global education, The World Course scaffolds the development of global competency drawing on project-based learning and other pedagogies that support personalization. The course expands children's horizons, helping them understand the world in which they live in all its complexity from kindergarten to high school. This is done through learning activities at the zone for proximal development for each age group, with activities that foster student agency and a growth mindset.
Download or read book Screening and Surveillance of Workers Exposed to Mineral Dusts written by Gregory R. Wagner and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive guide to the establishment of screening and surveillance programmes as a strategy for protecting the health of workers exposed to respirable crystalline silica containing dust, coalmine dust, and asbestos dust. Addressed to health planners as well as specialists in occupational health, the book covers both the general principles of effective screening and surveillance and the specific approaches, methodologies, tests, and examinations useful for detecting diseases induced by exposure to mineral dust. Recommended approaches and practices reflect the consensus reached by an international group of experts. Background information is provided in the opening chapters, which explain differences in the aims and methods of screening and surveillance programmes, offer advice on the selection of appropriate medical tests, and discuss essential programme components. Against this background, the most extensive part offers detailed guidance concerning which diseases should be monitored and which tests should be performed. All the major diseases associated with mineral dust exposure are reviewed, emphasizing knowledge about causes, pathological characteristics, manifestations, latency period, the advantages of early diagnosis, and the effectiveness of available interventions. On the basis of this review target diseases for screening and surveillance are identified. The next chapter discusses the uses and limitations of each test commonly used to detect diseases related to mineral dust exposure. Tests are discussed in the categories of conventional chest radiography, additional imaging techniques, measures of lung function, and questionnaires. The final chapter sets out recommendations for the periodic screening and health surveillance of workers.

Book excerpt: "Sol Plaatje's Mhudi is the first full-length novel in English to have been written by a black South African and is widely regarded as one of South Africa's most important literary works. Set in the 1830s, it tells the tale of Mhudi and Ra-Thaga, a romantic story set against a violent backdrop of war between Barolong and Matebele, complicated by the intrusions of Boer trekkers with whom the Barolong form an alliance. It is notable, among other things, for the way Plaatje uses the past to explore the roots of the oppression and injustice suffered by his people a century later, when the book was written"--Page 4 of cover

Download or read book An Outline of the New African Movement in South Africa written by Ntongela Masilela and published by Africa Research and Publications. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New African Movement stretched over a century from about 1862 (Tiyo Soga) to 1960 (Ezekiel Mphahlele). It consisted of writers, political and religious leaders, artists, teachers and scientists who called themselves New Africans - specifically New African intellectuals - to distinguish themselves from the Old Africans. They felt they stood out as a new movement because they were engaged with creating knowledge of modernity rather than taking consolation and satisfaction in the old ways of traditional societies.
