The article deals with methodological aspects of the production funds analysis. In this work the study of literature which examines the basic and transferable funds is presented. Much attention is paid to the analysis of basic production funds in the crane sector. Analysis of the basic production funds in the country’s crane sector is presented. Special attention is paid to the structure of the cranes park and crane utilization efficiency. In the analysis of basic production funds, the factors that impede the efficiency of production funds were established as follows: the greatest negative impact on basic production funds efficiency of businesses was in small tower crane fleet; a small range of tower cranes in the park is reducing the technical possibilities of the lease. Basing on the analysis and observation of tower cranes installation and dismantling, the poor supply of the parts for the work place, lack of competence and motivation of the support staff have been ascertained. After elimination of these factors it is possible to raise the efficiency of the main production funds. Santrauka Straipsnyje nagrinėjami gamybinių fondų analizės metodiniai aspektai.

Field experts take numerous approaches to modeling how culture influences groups in dealing with interpersonal conflict and its dynamics. Researchers investigate cultural traits that may predict a range of cultural conflict behaviors. In addition, anecdotal evidence shows that researchers continue to take up a constructivist approach of identifying the centrality of cultural influence that causes work related conflicts. This study attempts to determine the different types and levels of conflicts within a multicultural workforce by considering various factors such as ethnicity and geographic and lingual diversities within the global context. The scope is to find possible solutions to reduce and/or eliminate group related and, to a certain extent, individual conflicts within the work place, which have become a matter of concern for any international organization. The findings reveal systematic conflicts between and within work-groups and suggest that regardless of type, relationship, and process, conflicts are detrimental to the operation and total outcome. Those conflicts have a negative impact on performance in the production, especially when they escalate. Displays of interpersonal hostility (yelling, name-calling, throwing things at people and making derogatory inferences about others’ own cultures) prevent productive work in all groups, which are inefficient and do not seem motivated to complete their tasks. Increased bickering and hostile behaviour inhibits talking about and working on the immediate task. To a certain extent, the situation could be described as a “toxic working environment.” A key finding reveals through interviews and participative and non-intrusive observations demonstrated that members of these work-groups are psychologically distressed when there are frequent arguments about interpersonal issues. Consequently, the intrinsic problems which escalate over a five year period, together with extrinsic economic problems due to the global economic downturn, cause the company to have high cost of labor and material. With less than expected sales and, operational destruction due to distress about going concern, PTI is put to challenge. Hence, PTI faces a serious test in solving the existing group conflicts. Failure to improve the working relationships could jeopardize the strategic going concern of the company.

This paper presents the status of women rights in Pakistan and protection of these rights under the umbrella of legal reforms. After independence the women of Pakistan played an active role in nation building activities as well for their own social uplift. International organizations played special attention towards the issue of women empowerment During Ayub Era Muslim Family Law Ordinance 1961 was promulgated which is regarded as a first step forward for the protection of women rights. During Zia regime discriminatory laws were introduced which disturbed the equilibrium between male and female in the society. These laws put a negative impact on the status of women. Women organizations protested against Hudood Laws and demanded to repeal it. During the period of Musharruf new laws were introduced for the protection of women rights(women Protection Act 2006),it is regarded as golden era in context of legislation made for women empowerment .The process of legal reforms is in progression .The women are still subjugated to many criminal acts like harassment at work place ,attempted rape and acid throwing. There is a need of devising effective implementation mechanism in true letter and spirit for the safeguard of women rights.

Introduction. Building materials industry, including the production of clay and ceramic building bricks, cement, concrete products, saw building stone, sawn wood, granite blocks and rubble, is one of the most important economy units, prompting authors to generalize research data about working conditions and the incidence of occupational diseases in the main production building materials industry/ The data were accumulated during many years. Material and methods. Research methods included a comprehensive study of the working conditions of employees at enterprises of construction materials industry, followed by in-depth periodic medical examination. Then, with statistical methods (determination of the confidence interval index of the binomial distribution) calculated confidence interval for the prevalence of patients with an established diagnosis of occupational diseases in similar enterprises. Results. Results of 40-years research on occupational hazards parameters and physical examination of workers employed at productions of clay and ceramic bricks, cement, armed concrete, saw building stone, lumber wood, granite blocks crush stone were summarized because of the absence of complex estimation of work-place conditions and incidence of occupational diseases in main production of building materials industry. Typical occupational hazards were established for the every production. Many productions show the greatest disadvantage concerning levels of physical overload that was neglected by specialists in occupational health and safety for many years. The prevalence of patients suffering from chronic occupational diseases was predicted for employees of investigated productions and the most relevant forms of occupational pathology were determined. About 7.7% of workers in investigated productions appeared to suffer from occupational diseases that were not timely diagnosed. This figure is approximately 10 times higher than official statistics. The dependence of the prevalence of patients with occupational diseases from the level of technological modernization of production was revealed. If we can accept the proportion of patients with occupational diseases among employees working in the complex automated production (the highest degree of organization of labor) for referent unit than at the enterprises with the other technologies the proportion will be different: automated production - 10, mechanical work - 4, mechanical hand work - 5, hand work - 3.

Job stress is an iceberg phenomen. A great number of unreported cases and there is no aplicativeprogram in Indonesia cause increase of job stress risk and its negative impact to productivity andcompany image. More complex job demand without appropriate work capacity and inharmonicrelationship in the work place could be the main sources of job stress. This paper is focused on jobstress management program guidance that applicable at company and physiologic stress responseand also in depth theoretical point of job stress management within psycho-physiology aspect. Theaim of this written paper is to increase awareness and understanding of the application of stressmanagement programs among occupational physician, industrial community and industrialpractices. Stress management programs in company not only post about the improvement ofworking conditions also focuses on an individual orientation. On aspects of working conditions, theimprovement should be referring to standard of occupational health and safety (OHS) -management program, while aspect of individual coping skills can be done with the training ofproblem focus technique. Several studies have shown that the program creates respond to the limbicsystem of brain which is integrated with the function of cortex frontals. In addition, it could createrespond to changes body’s homeostasis due to changes in the response of the limbic system to theHPA (hypothalamic - pituitary - adrenal) axis and SAM (symphato - Adreno - medullary) - axis.The effectiveness of the program can be measured by the subjective and objective parameters.

9575 Background: Adolescent and young adults (AYA) 15 to 39 years present unique health care needs; however, barriers to communication of treatment-related and psychosocial difficulties exist. We hypothesized that a tailored AYA Touchscreen Tool (AYATT) in cancer patients/survivors would facilitate patient-provider communication, toward the larger goal of timely intervention. As a first step, we evaluated the feasibility of such a tool, operationally defined as an 80% acceptance and completion rate. Methods: Eligible City of Hope AYA patients receiving treatment and follow up care for oncologic or hematologic disease were systematically approached for study participation. Target accrual to assess feasibility was set at 50 participants. Consented patients completed a concise AYATT battery, mostly standardized measures, assessing access to care (CHIS), needs, neurocognitive function (BRIEF-A, CogState), and other quality of life (PedsQL) issues. Patients and clinical/support staff completed satisfaction and ease-of-use surveys to further evaluate feasibility. Results: 54 participants were accrued over 8 weeks, with a 96% completion rate exceeding our primary feasibility criteria. At the time of participation: Mean age=26.2 years; Range 15.3 to 38.9 years. Acceptability was high with positive responses throughout the survey. Based on patient responses, the AYATT helped 52% remember issues they had, or have, with their care or treatment; 39% were encouraged to discuss medical issues with their care team that they might not have discussed; 92% found it a useful way to communicate with their health care team; and 98% would recommend that other patients use AYATT. A separate survey from 31/36 clinical/support staff reported AYATT had minimal negative impact in clinic or patient care, increased communication, and was useful in maintaining/improving care. Conclusions: The aggregate findings from this feasibility study support utilizing a tailored touchscreen device in the AYA oncology population. Predictably, high levels of computer knowledge in our AYA cohort may account for the success and acceptance of using such a tool. These results provide evidence for further exploration and continued use in the AYA clinic and patient care setting.
