This article examines the effectiveness of management and quality improvement due to the various tools considered in the article; it gives recommendations for improving the efficiency of staff, training it for a new level and improve its qualifications and the efficiency of the hotel. In the face of fierce competition, hotel companies come up with and carry out new searches for modern methods of increasing competitiveness between hotel companies and creating demand for hotel services. One of the ways to make a hotel competitive is to enhance the hotel services in the enterprise. Hotel services directly depend on the competence of the staff, on their preparedness and stress resistance. In turn, the hotel company must contain satisfied employees to service hotel guests. Basically, the HR department monitors the number of personnel, their main task is to have as many employees in the company as should be in the staffing table. But now today it is important for the personnel department to achieve not only the timely filling of personnel, but to hire competent employees with good knowledge and qualifications. It is necessary to retain a good worker by offering and developing good working conditions, a system of motivation and quality management. As a result, an agreed personnel policy will be developed, which includes a system of personnel selection, training, improvement, personnel remuneration, as well as an established policy and subordination between management and subordinates. This article examines how, by applying different methods, to build good relationships between employees, to increase the motivation system, and to be a competitive hotel.

This paper examines the organization of digital piracy in the context of reshaping labor under neoliberalism. It discusses the practices by which enclosures of intellectual property are resisted by drawing from literature on the labor process, and examining the historical emergence of piratical practice on electronic bulletin board systems. These pirates sought, above all, to preserve autonomous, self-managed working conditions in the face of tendencies to commodify, enclose, and deskill.

Corporate reputation, being one of the most important assets that affect the profitability of companies, creates a difference in helping companies to recover from economic crises, gain price advantage against their competitors, diversify their products in the face of fierce competition, and thus, raise their brand value. Non-predictable and sudden global or regional events may cause companies and organizations to make unplanned changes and these changes can inflict difficulties on business operations. This chapter addresses the sudden crises experienced by companies and illustrates their success or failure in managing these crises and the extent of reputation being affected in return. Examples are given to show how crises can be turned into opportunities when managed well and how they can lead to disaster when managed inappropriately.

Pranab Bardhan’s 1984 book The Political Economy of Development in India (PEDI) has had enduring influence. For students of Indian political economy it quickly became a scholarly touchstone. In the years since publication, however, political economy has fallen out of favour in South Asian studies. The contributors to this volume revive class analysis to interrogate India’s great transformation since the 1980s. This chapter outlines Bardhan’s key analytical tools, his innovative fusion of Marxist and rational-choice theory, and his diagnosis of India’s deep collective-action problems as a result of fierce competition between dominant classes. It then surveys the chapters that follow, which together find striking continuities in contemporary Indian political economy in the face of three decades of liberalization.

This chapter is based on a number of international case studies of grassroots occupational and environmental health struggles that are attempting to link workplace, environment and community. Interviews with key people involved in each struggle, in combination with documented campaigns and our own experience as occupational and environmental health activists, have provided a picture of the changing patterns of work under neoliberalism, and the implications for community and workers’ struggle for environmental justice and occupational health. Themes include the erosion of the distinction between work and community and between the workplace and the environment; the increasing casualisation and precarity of work; downward pressure on working conditions; repression of trade unions and decline in union membership; deregulation of work, safety and environmental protection; and particular risks faced by women, young and migrant workers. Union and community organisers are employing diverse tactics in the face of these challenges.

Among European transition economies and the CIS, Russia is the largest country and has the most important endowment of natural resources, well-educated labour force, and large potential market. Paradoxically, Russia is one of the least attractive host countries in this region. This situation may generate a risk of economic marginalization. Our main task is to develop our understanding of FDI in Russia by asking a main question: Why is Russia an exception in the context of FDI globalization? Is Russia willing to stay outside the general trend of fierce competition for FDI and able to developed endogenously sustainable growth?

Mahut Group (name disguised) was a family-owned business group that operated two cement companies, Heera and Moti (names disguised), in Gujarat, the Western part of India. Heera Cement had been making substantial losses since its inception and was currently under the consideration of Board of Industrial & Financial Reconstruction (BIFR). Moti Cement was also a loss-making company but the losses were not as substantial as that of Heera. Each of the cement companies, Heera and Moti, had a production capacity of 1.2 million tons of cement per annum. The Mahut Cement Group had about 1000 employees, out of which about 30 personnel were in the top management. As of 1999, both the cement companies competed with each other in addition to competing with other cement players operating in Gujarat. The cement industry was deregulated in India in the late 1980's which resulted in fierce competition and price wars among the cement firms. In the face of this fierce competition, the Group decided on a restructuring process, and hired an American consulting firm, in 1998, to find a "synergy" between the two companies, Heera and Moti, and help the two companies to turnaround. This case discusses the issues of the restructuring process and the various interventions undertaken by the top management of Mahut Group. The case discusses the recommendations of the consultant and the role of human resource management during the restructuring process.

Abstract Objective. In this article we discuss the attitudes of teachers towards immigrant students in the classroom and investigate the students' experiences and that of their family; the other important factor in their education. Method. The methodology used was qualitative interviews, carried out in a comprehensive school catering for the different stages of compulsory education in Sicily (Italy). In-depth interviews were performed on 15 teachers who tutored immigrant students, with the aim of revealing their thoughts, emotions, perceptions and attitudes with regard to this social and educational experience. Results. Although there were disparate elements within the context of the school, the results were consistent with other studies that address this global, contemporary problem. We found a pronounced receptivity on the half of the staff, good responses between equals, but also a degree of impotence and institutional neglect in the face of the problem. It was consistently perceived that families of immigrant students were rarely involved in school life. The influence of socio-economic, ethnic and religious factors that often affect relations between the immigrant student's family and the school, also emerged. Conclusions. The phenomenon of immigrant children's school integration is plagued with difficulties, which are repeated and maintained in different areas and periods of time. Within the school, the teachers take on the main task of offering these children a favourable environment for integration. However, the other major aspect of our study, the family relationship, was less encouraging. The teachers felt a lack of cooperation from the families of immigrant children.
