Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book Quality of Work Life: A Comprehensive Study is written in the context of changing and emerging workplace realities. More than a decade has passed since the phrase “quality of work life” (QWL) was first introduced. During this period, QWL has been the subject of many academic papers, experiments in different settings and, recently, increased interest among managers and the popular press. This book also presents the new reality that QWL is the shared responsibility, not only for the management and workers but also the union leaders, government officials and behavioral scientists. QWL must change continually and go forward from initial problem solving to an actual partnership between management and workers. The content and the elements of the book would encourage the students to relate their own knowledge and experiences to the text.

Download or read book The Quest for Quality in the NHS written by Sheila Leatherman and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-12-14 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PUBLISHED IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE NUFFIELD TRUST Quality is an issue of central importance in the NHS and yet, despite a considerable number of initiatives, programmes and organisation that have focussed on improving quality in the NHS over recent years, there's no comprehensive, reliable balance and rigorous account of the strengths and weaknesses in healthcare delivery. This book provides an authoritative and accessible account of the state of quality in the NHS. Unless information on quality is properly gathered, organised, analysed and used, the health service will continue to lack a foundation on which sustained and systemic improvement can be based. The Quest for Quality in the NHS: a chartbook on quality of care in the UK is a comprehensive, rigorous and robust account of healthcare quality and will inform the public, managers, researchers and policymakers about gaps between what is possible, and what is delivered by the healthcare system.
Download or read book Quest for Life written by Yossi Turner and published by Academic Studies PRess. This book was released on 2021-01-26 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A.D. Gordon was one of the most interesting and original Jewish thinkers of the twentieth century. Quest for Life presents Gordon’s philosophy, which was developed in Hebrew at the beginning of the twentieth century, to the English reading public. It discusses the role played by the early Land of Israel pioneering labor community in the development of his thought, and offers a new understanding of its major themes, including: the relation of humanity to nature, human freedom, ethnicity, religion, and ethics. In addition, the book discusses the repercussions of Gordon’s thought with respect to contemporary civilization while suggesting its implicit ‘quest for life’ as the basis for a re-evaluation of such topics as the meaning of human life, Jewish peoplehood and the idea of a Jewish homeland.

Download or read book Statistics and the Quest for Quality Journalism written by Alessandro Martinisi and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at how numbers and statistics have been used to underpin quality in news reporting. In doing so, the aim is to challenge some common assumptions about how journalists engage and use statistics in their quest for quality news. It seeks to improve our understanding about the usage of data and statistics as a primary means for the construction of social reality. This is a task, in our view, that is urgent in times of ‘post-truth’ politics and the rise of ‘fake news’. In this sense, the quest to produce ‘quality’ news, which seems to require incorporating statistics and engaging with data, as laudable and straightforward as it sounds, is instead far more problematic and complex than what is often accounted for.

Download or read book The Happiness Riddle and the Quest for a Good Life written by Mark Cieslik and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-23 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the meaning of happiness in Britain today, and observes that although we face challenges such as austerity, climate change and disenchantment with politics, we continue to be interested in happiness and living well. The author illustrates how happiness is a far more contested, social process than is often portrayed by economists and psychologists, and takes issue with sociologists who often regard wellbeing and the happiness industry with suspicion, whilst neglecting one of the key features of being human – the quest for a good life. Exploring themes that question what it means to be happy and live a good life in Britain today, such as the challenges young people face making their way through education and into their first jobs; work life-balance; mid-life crises; and old age, the book presents nineteen life stories that call for a far more critical and ambitious approach to happiness research that marries the radicalism of sociology, with recent advances in psychology and economics. This book will appeal to students and academics interested in wellbeing, happiness and quality of life and also those researching areas such as the life course, work-life balance, biographies, aging and youth studies.
