JOB SATISFACTION IN PHILIPPINES

According to this article Philippines are less happy at work even though most of them look forward to career development. This unhappiness is attributed to lack of career development, lack of training opportunities and organizations’ management styles. Job dissatisfaction has continued to go down as it was 4.97 in 2016 while in 2017 it was 5.25.
In a survey that was conducted with the aim of knowing what would make people more satisfied with their jobs most people mentioned pay rise while others insisted that they would like to leave their jobs and get new ones. Good relationship with colleagues was the only reason why they were still in their jobs.
The extent to which workers were dissatisfied was different depending on workers age and professional stage. Those workers who were born before 1960 were found happier compared to those born after 1995. In terms of position those at the executive level were found to be more satisfied compared followed by new graduates.
For the baby boomers were happy about a job because of the schedule while the younger were interested in work location and work relationships. Older employees are dissatisfied due to lack of training, career development, and low wages. The managers need to communicate with employees on what factors would boost their job satisfaction.
Job satisfaction in Philippines is very different compared to US. In US 51% of all employees are satisfied while in Philippines job satisfaction is very low. Philippines can borrow much from what US has done to ensure that workers are satisfied with their jobs. The similarity in the two countries is that the rate of job satisfaction has been declining in the recent past. Philippines have much to learn from US than it is for US to learn from Philippines.
Philippines can make sure that its labor markets are tight to ensure low layoff rates. It can also improve working conditions and increase opportunities for its labor markets. As baby boomers continue to retire labor demand will go up and the rates of job satisfaction would go up.
Relationships are also important in ensuring job satisfaction. To ensure this there should be good relationships with coworkers, supervisors and their physical work environment. Job quality is also a mechanism of increasing job satisfaction. Employees should be given opportunities to develop their careers and be taken through trainings. They should also be given quality pay for their work and have good benefits e.g. health and retirement benefits.
For both countries, there must be communication with the employees to identify what things make them be dissatisfied with their jobs and something can be done to improve the situation. The labor market should be looked into if the situation has to improve.

Part I Genetics – From Genes to Proteins, Mutations Background .docxbridgelandying
Part I: Genetics – From Genes to Proteins, Mutations
Background:
DNA represents the architectural blueprint for all living systems, encoding specific instructions in the sequence of its four nitrogen-containing base pairs that are necessary for building the organism.
During the process of transcription, the information in the DNA codons of a gene is transcribed into RNA.
A change in the DNA sequence, for example as a result of a "mistake" during DNA replication, is defined as a mutation. Mutations may result in a change in the "blueprint," which may then change the resulting protein product.
Assignment details for part one:
Transcribe and translate EACH of the
three
following DNA gene sequences.
Turn these in using the graphic organizer. The letters represent the DNA N-base sequences of the genes.
The first is the original gene. The next two are mutations of the original. Note that the changes (mutations) are shown in red.
Original Gene sequence 3'-T A C C C T T T A G T A G C C A C T-5
Mutated gene sequence 1 3’-T A C

Mutated gene sequence 2 3’-T A

Also, answer the following questions:
What is the significance of the first and last codons of an mRNA transcript?
What meaning do these mRNA codons have for protein synthesis?
Did the mutations result in a change in the final proteins? If so, describe the change.
In general, why might a change in amino acid sequence affect protein function?
Part II: Inheritance of Traits or Genetic Disorders
Background
: Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disease that affects the respiratory, digestive, or reproductive systems of the body, with symptoms ranging from mild to severe. Bob and Sally are recently married. Upon deciding to plan a family, both Sally and Bob find out that they are both
heterozygous
for
cystic fibrosis
, but neither of them has symptoms of the disorder.
Assignment details:
Complete a
Punnett Square for cystic fibrosis
for this couple using the following alleles:
C = normal allele
; and
c = allele for cystic fibrosis
.
Complete the Punnett Square in the graphic organizer.
Also answer the following questions:
Based on the Punnett square, calculate chances (percentages) for the following:
for having a healthy child (not a carrier)
a child that is a carrier for the cystic fibrosis trait
a child with cystic fibrosis
Be sure to submit these percentages as part of your assignment in the Graphic Organizer.
Part III: Cell division, sexual reproduction and genetic variability
Background
: Eukaryotic cells can divide by mitosis or meiosis. In humans, mitosis produces new cells for growth and repair; meiosis produces sex cells (gametes) called
sperm
and
eggs.
Although mutations are the ultimate source of genetic variability, both meiosis and sexual reproduction also can contribute to new genetic combinations in offspring.

Part II
: Reading Modern literature can sometimes be a frustrating quest for coherence and meaning. Modernist authors
tend to omit explanations, interpretations, connections, and summaries that we are accustomed to in traditional literature.
O'Neill's method in
The Hairy Ape
demonstrates a striking departure from traditional stage drama since audiences are faced with an exaggerated and stark realism, and with dialog that is crude, natural, and slangy. How do you react to the play? What happens to Yank that leads him to expose his primitive interior self? What happens at the end, and how are we--the reading or viewing audience--to interpret his death?

Part I:
Name one surprising fact you discovered about any of this week's authors. Why did it surprise you?
Part II:
Most of the works this week were somewhat specific in terms of location.
How might the perspective have changed if the events were placed in a another location
? For instance, lynchings took place in the North, as well as the South. What is the significance of placing "Song for a Dark Girl" in the South? How would the impact have changed without that information? That is only one example.
Part III:
Although the focus of the week was race and ethnicity, Morrison, Hurston, and Walker present strong female characters.
What characteristics do these stories imply are desirable

Using the data in the file named Ch. 11 Data Set 2, test the research hypothesis at the .05 level of significance that boys raise their hands in class more often than girls. Do this practice problem by hand using a calculator. What is your conclusion regarding the research hypothesis? Remember to first decide whether this is a one- or two-tailed test.
Using the same data set (Ch. 11 Data Set 2), test the research hypothesis at the .01 level of significance that there is a difference between boys and girls in the number of times they raise their hands in class. Do this practice problem by hand using a calculator. What is your conclusion regarding the research hypothesis? You used the same data for this problem as for Question 1, but you have a different hypothesis (one is directional and the other is nondirectional). How do the results differ and why?
Practice the following problems by hand just to see if you can get the numbers right. Using the following information, calculate the
t
test statistic.
Using the results you got from Question 3 and a level of significance at .05, what are the two-tailed critical values associated with each? Would the null hypothesis be rejected?
Using the data in the file named Ch. 11 Data Set 3, test the null hypothesis that urban and rural residents both have the same attitude toward gun control. Use IBM

A public health researcher tested the hypothesis that providing new car buyers with child safety seats will also act as an incentive for parents to take other measures to protect their children (such as driving more safely, child-proofing the home, and so on). Dr. L counted all the occurrences of safe behaviors in the cars and homes of the parents who accepted the seats versus those who did not. The findings: a significant difference at the .013 level. Another researcher did exactly the same study; everything was the same—same type of sample, same outcome measures, same car seats, and so on. Dr. R’s results were marginally significant (recall Ch. 9) at the .051 level. Which result do you trust more and why?
In the following examples, indicate whether you would perform a

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

searches.
Integration of technology in the global operation supply chain
management to keep up with fast changing markets such as
invoice automation
Improvement of quality services for customers through
reduction in supply chain management complexity.
Another project is rebuilding work flow in manufacturing
through optimization of work scheduling.
Another project is complete transition to a new ERP platform
without interrupting current supply chain system
5.0 Identify two potential projects from the list above, for
further development.
Some of the project of interest generated from above list
includes; improvement in efficiency and reliability of the
supply chain network management for companies operating
globally through reduction in complexity of supply chain
networks.
Another project is effect of integrating technology and strategic
monitoring in improving service delivery in the supply chain
network. These two potential projects cover a relatively wider
list of problems normally encountered in global operation and
supply chain management such as maintaining quality of
services and goods sold to customers at all times (McAdam &
McCormack, 2001). Also avoiding delays and even risk
management in the supply chain management especially in
global operations.
6.0 Provide a rationale for the selection of the two projects for
further development. What makes these projects manageable
and feasible? What questions remain?
The main reason for selecting the two projects is because a
supply chain management rely on simplicity in operations
within the supply chain network so that delays may not arise
which is often costly on the side of the business as it reduces
profit margin as it increases risks for the business (Bozarth &
Handfield, 2008). Therefore further development of this project
16. will reduce complexity in the supply chain networks and
increase efficiency which many companies yarn for in global
operations.
The other topic of integration of technology and strategic
monitoring of supply chain network helps in ensuring that
convenience in management and cost reduction is achieved
through reducing certain costs of operations. This is because
technology plays a vital role in ensuring quality and efficiency
is achieved particularly in supply chain management.

STATEMENT OF ORIGINAL WORK
Capella University’s Academic Honesty Policy (3.01.01) holds
learners accountable for the integrity of work they submit,
which includes but is not limited to discussion postings,
assignments, comprehensive exams, and the dissertation or
capstone project.
Established in the Policy are the expectations for original work,
rationale for the policy, definition of terms that pertain to
academic honesty and original work, and disciplinary
consequences of academic dishonesty. Also stated in the Policy
is the expectation that learners will follow APA rules for citing
another person’s ideas or works.
The following standards for original work and definition of
plagiarism are discussed in the Policy:
Learners are expected to be the sole authors of their work and to
26. acknowledge the authorship of others’ work through proper
citation and reference. Use of another person’s ideas, including
another learner’s, without proper reference or citation
constitutes plagiarism and academic dishonesty and is
prohibited conduct. (p. 1)
Plagiarism is one example of academic dishonesty. Plagiarism is
presenting someone else’s ideas or work as your own.
Plagiarism also includes copying verbatim or rephrasing ideas
without properly acknowledging the source by author, date, and
publication medium. (p. 2)
Capella University’s Research Misconduct Policy (3.03.06)
holds learners accountable for research integrity. What
constitutes research misconduct is discussed in the Policy:
Research misconduct includes but is not limited to falsification,
fabrication, plagiarism, misappropriation, or other practices that
seriously deviate from those that are commonly accepted within
the academic community for proposing, conducting, or
reviewing research, or in reporting research results. (p. 1)
Learners failing to abide by these policies are subject to
consequences, including but not limited to dismissal or
revocation of the degree.
