Answer:

a) The key issues are the sue for libel and the evidence.

b) I would make a deal with her and implement a security program in the company.

Explanation:

The main issue in this case is that Pam Jones sued the company for libel, and the company remains in a position in which it has to prove that the internal investigation followed the right steps and indeed, the proves reflected that she was guilty and the fact that she got fired was correct.

The important here is exactly that the theft can be proved.

As an HR Director, I would give the correct proves in order to win the case, and if that is impossible, because of the tools and evidence, I would make a deal with her where both parts can be adequate to the problem.

She can´t be working again in the company but she can get financed according to her working years; also I would use this case as a growing opportunity by implementing new security methods that give more confidence between the company and its employees.

A homeowner consumes 260 kWh of energy in July when the family is on vacation most of the time. Determine the average cost per k
Llana [10]

Answer:

16.2 cents

Explanation:

Given that a homeowner consumes 260 kWh of energy in July when the family is on vacation most of the time.

Where Base monthly charge of $10.00. First 100 kWh per month at 16 cents/kWh. Next 200 kWh per month at 10 cents/kWh. Over 300 kWh per month at 6 cents/kWh.

For the first 100 kWh:

16 cent × 100 = 1600 cents = 16 dollars

Since 1 dollar = 100 cents

For the remaining energy:

260 - 100 = 160 kwh

10 cents × 160 = 1600 cents = 16 dollars

The total cost = 10 + 16 + 16 = 42 dollars

Note that the base monthly of 10 dollars is added.

The cost of 260 kWh of energy consumption in July is 42 dollars

To determine the average cost per kWh for the month of July, divide the total cost by the total energy consumed.

That is, 42 / 260 = 0.1615 dollars

Convert it to cents by multiplying the result by 100.

0.1615 × 100 = 16.15 cents

Approximately 16.2 cents

Differences between acidic and basic Bessemer process​
dybincka [34]

Answer:

In the acid processes, deoxidation can take place in the furnaces, leaving a reasonable time for the inclusions to rise into the sla*g and so be removed before casting. Whereas in the basic furnaces, deoxidation is rarely carried out in the presence of the sla*g, otherwise phosphorus would return to the metal.

How many robots does bailey nursery own ​
givi [52]

Answer:

The Bailey family has flourished during its business’ 110-year history. But Bailey Nurseries’ leaders still operate with the belief that the family doesn’t always know best. The company has grown from a one-man operation selling fruit trees and ornamental shrubs to one of the largest wholesale nurseries in the United States, thanks to insights from those who are family and those who aren’t.

“For a business to thrive, you have to ask for outside help,” says Terri McEnaney, president of the Newport-based company and a fourth-generation family member. “We get an outside perspective through family business programs, advisors and our board, because you can get a bit ingrained in your own way of thinking.”

When Bailey Nurseries chose its current leader in 2000, it brought in a facilitator who gathered insights from key employees, board members and owners. Third-generation leaders (and brothers) Gordie and Rod Bailey picked Rod’s daughter McEnaney, who had experience both inside and outside the company.

When removing a diesel engine from a truck, Technician A says it is OK to disconnect an air con­ditioning hose, but the refriger
agasfer [191]

Answer:

Technician B is right.

Explanation:

Air conditioning refrigerant contains Freon R22 and R410a, which have been linked to environmental damages, including ozone depletion, global warming, and energy-inefficiency.  For environmentally-savvy entities and individuals, there is the modern move to a more environment-friendly refrigerant, known as R-32.   Technician A's advice to vent the refrigerant outside the shop is in bad taste.  He does not seem to be aware of the environmental footprint of such an action.  Venting gas outside, in addition to the environmental damages, is also a waste of resources, and therefore, costly.  This is why Technician B's advice should be preferred.
