Performance appraisal of employees is one of the most efficient methods for employees’ development, motivation and evaluation.
Performance appraisal systems are typically used to measure the effectiveness and efficiency of an organization's employees.
The objective of performance reviews is to help ensure employee productivity is sufficient to meet the overall organizational objectives outlined in the Strategic HRM plan.
HR professionals and management usually develop an appraisal system so employee performance can be evaluated on a regular basis.
This system also normally includes a set of formal policies to help deal with performance issues in the workplace.
The advantage of having such a policy is that it can eliminate wrongful termination legal action.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
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.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
2. Types of Accidents
• From cuts and burns to slips and falls, restaurants can present numerous dangers to an often inexperienced
workforce.
• In fact, one in 20 on-the-job injuries and illnesses worldwide, occur at eating and drinking establishments.
2
The main injuries hospitality staff incur can include:
• Cuts - Restaurant staff members can often incur cuts or puncture wounds due to frequent contact with
knives.
• Burns - From boiling water to fryers and hot stovetops, heat and water burns also create another potential
hazard for restaurant workers.
• Sprains and Strains - Hard-to-reach items can cause worker injury due to overreaching or trips. Workers
can also suffer from strains due to improper lifting.
• Eye Injury - Splashes from grease or sanitizing chemicals frequently used in food service environments
can result in injury to the eye.
• Other Factors - Equipment accidents, stairways and staff clothing can also be the cause of injuries.
3. The use of fire, electric and gas stoves, fryers,
etc, in restaurants can lead to a fire
hazard. Insufficient and improper
maintenance and cleaning work, and
accumulations of grease and oil, greatly
increase the risk of fire.
Once any one of the three elements is
removed, the fire can be put out successfully.
The use of different fire extinguishers can
remove one or more elements to help
extinguish the fire.
Three
elements
are required
for an object
to burn:
Combustibles
(fuel)
Oxygen (air)
Heat

Properly clean and maintain cooking equipment
and exhaust hoods/ filters.
For sanitation as well as safety reasons, limit
smoking to restricted areas.
Be sure there is adequate fire extinguishing
equipment on hand. Personnel should know where
it is located and how to use it.
Use fire detection devices that can detect smoke,
flames, and heat.
Use automatic sprinkler systems. They are an
effective way to control fires
The following
precautions can

Employees should know where all emergency exits
are located, and fire drills should be conducted
regularly.
Contact the local fire department for specific help
in designing emergency procedures.
Make sure all doors to the property open out and
that fire exits are kept clear at all times.
Fire department telephone numbers should be
located near telephones.
Fire Fighting
Principles
Local ordinances usually require special fire extinguishing equipment to be located under ventilation
filters. Regardless of the type (dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or chemicals in special solutions), this
equipment can only be effective if it is professionally designed, installed, and maintained.
The following four precautions should be implemented to help maintain a fire safe environment.

First Aid
Hospitality operations should have first aid equipment and supplies located
in a convenient area.
Immediately after an accident occurs, first aid is the primary concern. It is
very important that someone trained in first aid apply treatment.
In the case of a minor
injury, give the person
whatever aid is
necessary from the
property's first aid kit.
Fill out an accident
report, and urge the
victim to see a physician
if that seems
appropriate
Because of an obstructed airway, choking is a leading cause of
accidental death.
If a choking person is not coughing or is unable to speak, that's your
cue to perform the Heimlich maneuver immediately.
The Heimlich maneuver is generally considered to be the best first aid
for choking.
10. Heimlich
Maneuver
Look at the image to see the five steps
that can help to save a choking victim.
Repeat step 5 until the foreign body
has been expelled. Make each squeeze-
thrust strong enough to dislodge a
foreign body. Keep a firm grip on the
victim, since he or she may lose
consciousness.

Place yourself slightly behind the standing
victim.
Place your arms around the victims waist
Make a fist with one hand and place just
above the victims belly button
Grab your fist with your other hand
Deliver an upward squeeze-thrust into the
abdomen
11. CPR
(Cardiopulmonary
Resuscitation)
• This is a lifesaving technique useful in many
emergencies, in which someone's breathing or
heartbeat may have stopped. Begin CPR with
uninterrupted chest compressions of about 100 a
minute until medical help arrives.
• CPR can keep oxygen and blood flowing to the
patients heart, brain and other organs, until medical
treatment arrives.
• See the attached diagram for the four basic steps in
administering CPR
11
12. Conclusion
• Restaurants and kitchens can present numerous dangers to an often inexperienced workforce. Injuries can range
from cuts and lacerations, burns, slips and strains, eye injuries and other factors.
• Employees must be alert when using knives, slicers, or similar equipment. All employees should be trained on
how to use, maintain, and clean equipment. The use of fire, electric and gas stoves, fryers, etc, in restaurants can
lead to a fire hazard.
• Firefighting facilities and equipment are commonly found in restaurants include, extinguishers, fire blankets,
sprinkler systems, fire hose reels, emergency lighting and visual alarm systems.
• Fire extinguishers allow people to extinguish small fires under safe conditions, but extinguishers must be only
used on the types of fire they are designed for.
• Restaurants and restaurant kitchens should have first aid equipment and supplies located in a convenient area.
• Immediately after an accident occurs, first aid is the primary concern. It is very important that someone trained in
first aid apply treatment.
• CPR and the Heimlich maneuver are two basic steps in first aid that some restaurant staff should know and
understand.
