Abstract
This paper discusses different initiatives that could be taken to reduce unemployment rate. It also looks at how current methods such as over payments of unemployment insurance benefits are not particularly effective.
From the Paper
"The Department of Labor was designed to provide benefits to those who had been working and then lost their jobs. For the past few decades the department has done more than just pay out benefits by way of a weekly check until the recipient either got a new position or their money ran out. The department has offered job programs designed to help the recipients of benefits locate and obtain new employment. The job programs are successful for certain segments of the population but miss the mark when it comes to the people in the lower socio-economic segment of society. "

Abstract
This paper is an in-depth examination of the public's opinion of government assistance programs that deal with job finding and a guaranteed standard of living. It includes a discussion of the 1996 Welfare to Work At and how it was received by the American public. The writer examines the relevant literature to test the hypothesis that the profile of an American who supports government assistance in job-finding will be dependant on their race, sex, and income level.
From the Paper
"In the late nineteen-seventies and the early eighties, the United States faced high rates of unemployment coupled with a recession and high rates of inflation (Milkis 1999). To help ease the percentage of unemployed Americans, the government established programs to assist those who were out of work, especially for those in minority communities, to find new employment. Programs such as ?Welfare to Work? and ?Community Jobs,? have remained through the past thirty years, still helping those in need find gainful pay. However, in today?s booming economy, I expect more Americans are wondering why their tax dollars are being used to fund programs for people who, in their assumption, could easily find a job on their own."

From the Paper
"Across the nation school reform has been the issue stressing the need to bring student achievement scores higher and to prepare students for movement into the labor force. The nature of our society makes it imperative that graduating high schoolers be prepared to become members of the labor force. In particular, minority students who will not go to college to obtain higher degrees must be able to perform jobs which are technical although not particularly skilled. Vocational education in high schools has seen a growing change (Burke, 1986). More and more schools have moved toward providing computer classes in the form of work skills rather than the traditional programming skills of 10 years ago (Roblyer, 1988). However, little research has been done to (...)"

Abstract
This paper studies the problem of women maintaining jobs after welfare to work programs in Philadelphia and how success or failure revolves around family support and job quality. This paper focuses on the fact that women are not receiving adequate childcare in tandem with the job training they are receiving, will fail to maintain their position of employment. By actively creating job training of a higher quality in these programs and giving special programs for childcare and transportation, the issue of unemployment will soon decline.
From the Paper
"The aim of this study will be to examine women that have completed "welfare to work" programs, but cannot maintain jobs in the city of Philadelphia. The majority of women that do not hold jobs after completing their program relate directly to family support systems, but also the quality of the job is a strong factor in regards to their training. With these two important factors: family support and job quality, one can examine possible solutions for single mother families that cannot retain employment after completing welfare to work programs. Within the past five years there has been an increase in the number of welfare to work women in Philadelphia. These women had completed transitional work program, but were unable to retain employment after six months."

School-to Work Programs, 2002.
A discussion of the disadvantages of school-to-work (STW) programs.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper looks at school-to-work (STW) programs, which are designed to meet the needs of a large portion of today's students - those who are work-bound as soon as they graduate high school. It looks at how many of these programs allow students to enroll as apprentices and accumulate hours and experience towards a qualifying certificate in a specific profession while earning credits towards their high school graduation diploma, as well. It supports the opposing viewpoint of school-to-work programs, arguing that education that concentrates on job training results in graduates who are less adaptable and less able to change occupations without retraining. Without training in liberal arts, many high school graduates have difficulty learning new skills and adjusting to new jobs.
From the Paper
"According to the U.S. Department of Education (2001), in order to create a national school-to-work system, the departments of labor and education provide start-up grants to states and local communities. In addition, the federal government, states and communities can build on programs such as vocational education, technology preparation, youth apprenticeship, career academics, school-based enterprises, job training programs, and cooperative education to create school-to-work systems and transform learning in high schools."

Effective Orientation Programs, 2002.
A discussion of the significance of orientation programs and how they can be made effective.
1,966 words (approx. 7.9 pages), 7 sources, MLA, $ 62.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper examines how the process of orientation actually entails designing a desired set of policies, principles or rules, drafted such that the entire program accommodates the individuals under consideration, grabs their attention, arouses their interests and compels them to perform the way they are required to, functioning to the best of their abilities under varied circumstances subject to constant change. It discusses how this applies to every walk of life be it manufacturing, selling, buying, pursuing a job or a career in an academic field and how it is not only schools, colleges and universities requiring effective orientation programs but also firms, organizations and various other workplaces where employee morale must remain high. It evaluates how to make students and employees orientation programs effective and in particular how to make orientation programs effective for deaf-blind children.
From the Paper
"With the growing need for and awareness regarding Orientation Programs that have proved fundamental to every facet of human life, educational institutions are making efforts to draft more effective orientation programs. Hence, the incorporation of such programs into the curriculum is increasing with every sketching moment, with number of academic institutions increasing in number and the universities and schools realizing their responsibility in regulating student behavior and in enhancing their sense of responsibility and discipline thereby making desperate attempts to reduce health related and other social problems that are alarmingly augmenting (Curtis, 1999)."

Abstract
This paper explains that problems in the hospital environment have created a high turnover among experienced nurses whose jobs are being filled by new graduate nurses, especially for the night shifts where there is the least backup support for these experienced nurses. The author reports that preceptor/residency programs have been developed for new graduate nurses to provide orientation to the specialty areas, such as critical care, medical/surgical and psychiatry and to help these new nurses address the challenges they face in their new positions. The paper indicates that, although there are relatively few articles available on mentorship for graduate nurses, studies do indicate the importance of these orientation programs not only to improve clinical care but also to decrease nursing staff turnover, preceptor burnout and the financial burden such turnover costs the healthcare system.
From the Paper
"Marcum and West (2004) examined the effect of a structured mentoring program on the retention of nurses within a healthcare system. In this study, twenty new graduate nurses were enrolled in a "New Graduate Orientation Program" which had been developed when the need to retain nurses was identified. The program used for this study marked an entirely new was of thinking for this particular organization, and was managed in a stepwise approach. Management appeared to have significant by-in to the plan. Current staff was polled to identify career goals, performance and support issues. At this point it was identified that the largest pool of nurses from whom the organization would have to choose from would likely be the new graduate population."

From the Paper
"Results from the Utah state university program indicate that in general, students are satisfied with their job roles. However, there was some dissatisfaction expressed as a result of salaries obtained by graduates. Other concerns were frustration over the amount of paperwork required by managed care systems and frustration over a lack of training in the business aspects of professional practice. None of the evaluations indicated a lack of knowledge as far as the program was concerned. Students had a high degree of success attaining state licenses. Utah State University began conducting the survey five years ago. This program represents one of the most extensive and proactive evaluation systems found among universities.
Rackham Graduate School began a program as recently as October of 2006 to help retain graduate students and to help them achieve greater success after they graduate. This program focuses on reducing stress in teaching students through management skills designed to deal with the pressures of graduate school."

From the Paper
"A job-sharing program has distinct, and serious disadvantages. Firstly, job sharing may result in a lack of consistency within a position. When two people share one position, their methods of organization, employee leadership, and their performance of specific duties may be highly individual. As a result, a lack of consistency may develop, leading to difficulties with employees, and a lack of standardization in the way tasks are competed. In short, the implementation of a job-sharing program may result in decreased productivity, at best, and a financial loss, at worst (Olmsted, 1983)."

From the Paper
"Jobs are the building blocks which build organizations. The interrelationships among jobs forms the complex structures of the largest organizations and even small companies depend on each individual performing his or her job appropriately in order to accomplish the company's goals and objectives. Despite the importance which jobs hold to the success of an organization, surprisingly little consideration goes into analyzing and evaluating jobs within many organizations. This research examines methods for performing job analysis, considers job specifications and requirements, identifies key approaches to job design, and looks at job descriptions from both traditional and modern perspectives."

Abstract
Managing human resources is a challenge in today's dynamic business environment. New approaches to traditional tasks have been implemented to help human resource professionals. This paper gives the tools to aid businesses in approaching job analysis and design, and to work to develop job descriptions which are integrated with the company's overall goals and objectives in order to increase productivity.
From the Paper
"There are typically three different methods used in job analysis: task, behavioral and ability (Milkovich & Newman, 1996, p. 78). Task data focuses on the fundamental units of work with an emphasis on the purpose of each task. Task data must be developed for each job individually since the purpose behind each task varies from job to job. Thus a programmer might "consult with engineers to determine program specifications" in a task environment, but the engineer might "consult with programmers to develop specifications". In both cases, both the purpose and the task are specific to the job and cannot be substituted."
