Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

putting a halt on the layoffs

Explanation:

This strategy should begin by putting a halt on the layoffs. This should be top priority since the layoffs themselves are the main cause for the criticism that the company is receiving and this criticism is the sole reason as to why its market position and staff productivity has fallen drastically. People think the company is failing and the staff is scared that they will eventually be fired. By stopping layoffs and waiting for a market recovery you give other better options a chance to arise and more efficient strategies to take effect.

I think policymakers would link social security payments to inflation to help the recipients with the increased cost of living due to inflation of prices also. I don't think small increases due to a low rate of inflation is a downside because the low rate of inflation means goods and services will not increase much in price so will still be relatively affordable.

sp2606 [1]

Answer: When people have insurance against a certain event, the notion that those people are less likely to guard against that event occurring is called a <u>moral hazard.</u>

Explanation: Moral hazard happens frequently in cases of insurance. If a person has a house, they can decide to install a vault because it reduces the risk of being robbed;

However, when the same person has arranged an insurance that covers the risk of theft of the house, they will have fewer incentives than in the previous situation, to install the security door and ultimately it will be able to increase the probability of the loss in this Theft case. This behavior, for example, before insurance coverage is called moral hazard.

According to the human-capital view, education
lana66690 [7]

According to the human-capital view, education is an indicator of natural ability.  Human capital encompasses assets such as education, training, intelligence, skills, health, and other characteristics valued by employers such as loyalty and punctuality. As such, it is an intangible asset or characteristic that does not (and cannot) appear on a company's balance sheet.

Human capital is thought to boost productivity and consequently profitability. The more a firm invests in its personnel, the more likely it is to be productive and successful. Because not all labor is created equal, firms can develop human capital by investing in employers training, education, and perks.
