Secondly, the topic of new uniform (or scrubs) turned into the public ostracism of the nurse due to her appearance, which is in fact an action punishable by law. The ad hominem accusations prevented the meeting from ...

The proposal by Nestle for 15 percent workforce cut was essential for organizations to realize the changes. The response by CGT shows complete resistance to change as the union safeguard the interest of employees. The firm positions by both management and union influences initiated ...
