Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Particularmente en la industria de la construcción, algunos profesionales preocupados por los problemas que deben sortear a diario, todavía no terminan de convencerse de la importancia vital que este aspecto tiene, si queremos que se vean reflejados en la calidad de vida y preservación de la salud de los trabajadores de la construcción. Se ha tratado de condensar en este libro los fundamentos básicos de los temas relativos a la Higiene y Seguridad Laboral, sin dejar de lado el enfoque de la Política de calidad de la empresa, según las Normas ISO 9000, e ISO 14000. Para lo cuál se basaron en la lectura de la bibliografía nacional y extranjera existente en la materia, y además en la experiencia profesional como Jefe de Obras, acumulada a través de varias décadas de participación en empresas constructoras, al frente de obras ubicadas en diferentes partes del territorio nacional, lo cual implicó sortear diferentes circunstancias geográficas y climáticas. La intención de esta obra, no radica en que el lector se convierta en un especialista de los temas citados. Lejos de ello, se ha pretendido resumir y rescatar el concepto básico de la prevención de los riesgos, visto con el enfoque del Jefe de Obra o Producción, para así motivar el interés y la conciencia de profesionales y también de alumnos, preparándolos para cuando efectivamente lo necesiten en el transcurso de su actividad profesional.
Download or read book Work and Labor Relations in the Construction Industry written by Dale Belman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for a skilled, motivated and effective workforce is fundamental to the creation of the built environment across the world. Known in so many places for a tendency to informal and casual working practices, for the sometimes abusive use of migrant labor, for gendered male employment and for a neglect of the essentials of health and safety, the industry, its managers and its workforce face multiple challenges. This book brings an international lens to address those challenges, looking particularly at the diverse ways in which answers have been found to manage safe and productive employment practices and effective employment relations within the framework of client demands for timely and cost-effective project completions. Whilst context, history and contractual frameworks may all militate against a careful attention to human resource issues this makes them even more deserving of attention. Work and Labor Relations in Construction aims to share understanding of best practice in the industries associated with construction and related activities, recognizing that effective work organization and good standards of employee relations will vary from one location to another. It acknowledges the real difficulties encountered by workers in parts of the developing world and the quest for improvement and awareness of some of the worst hazards and current practices. This book is both critical and analytical in approach and seeks to alert readers to the need for change. Aimed at addressing practical issues within the construction industry from a theoretical and empirical standpoint, it will be of value to those interested in the built environment, employment relations and human resource management.

Download or read book Education for Sustaining Peace Through Historical Memory written by Markus Schultze-Kraft and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Informed by the author's long-standing work on violent conflict, peace and education in countries of the Global South, particularly Colombia, this open access book presents a comprehensive narrative about the relationship between peace education, historical memory and the sustaining peace agenda, advocating for the adoption of a new perspective on education for sustaining peace through historical memory. Education on and for peace in countries wrestling with, or emerging from, protracted violent conflict is up against major challenges, and both conventional and critical approaches to peace education are limited to address these. Incorporating a focus on historical memory, without losing sight of its own pitfalls, into peace education can support learners and teachers to come to grips with achieving positive, peace-sustaining change at both the micro (individual) and macro (social and institutional) levels, and to develop concepts and practices of effective and legitimate alternatives to violence and war. Conceived in these terms, historical memory-oriented peace education also stands to enhance the work-in-progress that is the UN-led sustaining peace agenda, including its Sustainable Development Goals.
