This research was therefore, aimed at evaluating the level of maintenance within the ambits of budgetary provisions in Universities. The methodology involved survey design, review of related literature, questionnaires, direct observations and interviews. The sample techniques involved both purposive and stratified random sampling applied on a population of 1300 staff, students and 84 buildings respectively. Data was analyzed using frequencies, percentages and mean scores. Pearson correlation coefficient, regression analysis and student t-test were employed in testing the hypotheses. Results revealed that maintenance of buildings in the institution is not effective. The research concluded that lack of building maintenance, funding and management decision play an important role in the physical condition of buildings which in turn affect staff productivity and students’ academic achievement. The study recommends among others regular annual budgetary allocation to building maintenance; review the budgets from time to time to accommodate inflationary trends and early release of funds. Management should explore other ways and means of generating and sourcing funds for maintenance as a result of restrictions on government subsidies to institutions.

A safe and comfortable human life could be achieved by controlling the work environment so that the release of energy that is harmful to human health can be avoided. Noise often arises from an uncontrolled work environment and currently, more than 600 million people are exposed worldwide. Increased cortisol levels were one indicator stress-inducing of the occurrence of health effects because the worker's body is exposed to noise. If left longer it could increase sugar levels and cause diabetes mellitus. This study aims to analyze the effect of noise exposure on increasing blood cortisol levels and blood sugar levels in garment workers. This type of research was an analytic survey with a cross-sectional design. The respondents were chosen by using a stratified random sampling method and the total amount of respondents with a mean difference formula. As many as 75 people became respondents after being counted using the mean difference formula and chosen by the stratified random sampling method. The data were analyzed using ANOVA and Pearson Correlation. The results showed that respondents who exposed to noise above the threshold limit value had higher average blood cortisol levels compared to other respondents (p<0,000). Furthermore, an increase in blood cortisol levels was also positively correlated with an increase in blood sugar levels (r=0,898; p=0,000). Therefore, workers must be disciplined in using personal protective equipment.

<p>The unrests witnessed in 2018 reminded Kenyans of past bloody episodes, which, though rare, caused pain, loss and destruction. Several  parents are likely to still be struggling to come to terms with the loss and destruction of those events. Unfortunately, despite several studies that have tried to investigate and recommend solutions for these menaces, this is still freshly being experienced in the country. This scenario informed the study with the purpose of investigating the role of school politics in management of unrests in public secondary schools in  Kenya. The study was guided by conflict theory and theory of symbolic interactionism, and a descriptive survey design with a target population of the 57 public secondary schools in Taita Taveta County, Kenya. The sample consisted of 194 headteachers, heads of departments and Board of Management members. Stratified random sampling was used to select respondents. The study used a questionnaire and interviews to collect data. The study found that school politics including teachers’ incitement has a significant role in management of unrests in public secondary schools in Taita Taveta County.</p><p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0778/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
