Write a paper in which you describe three pieces of legislation that have been critical in defining the rights of management and unions.

In your paper answer the following question:

• Why are the laws you chose important and what role did they play in shaping today’s management-union relationship?

Strategic Logistics Management, Inc. (SLM) is a U.S.-based third party company whose primary business is to deliver logistics services. Currently, SLM manages several warehouses in Los Angeles and the New York/New Jersey area. SLM provides expertise in air and ocean shipping, customs clearance, forwarding, warehousing, and ground transportation. Over the past five years, SLM has built a successful logistics information system (LIS) that includes personnel, equipment, and technology. The decision-support systems included in the LIS are a transportation management system (TMS) and a warehouse management system (WMS).

SLM employs experienced personnel in the United States to handle a wide range of logistics activities and provide customized logistics solutions and services. The company is considering expanding their global operations to provide the same range of services in Australia, including:

• Imports: A network of offices and trade connections to support import consolidation, provide warehousing of goods prior to customs clearance, and manage import documentation for customs formalities.
• Door-to-door services: Cargo pickup from supplier locations and transportation of goods directly to the customer, as well as freight bookings with airlines and ocean lines to handle cargo exports from both the United States and Australia.
• Exports: Handling of various types of cargo exports by ocean and by air, ensuring the timely movement of goods at the most competitive rates. Complete export documentation is provided.

SLM is working to secure two contracts in Australia that will go into effect next year. The first contract is with Greer Wire Company in Melbourne, Australia, to transport two million pounds of stainless steel brushfire mesh used in protecting homes in brushfire prone areas. This cargo will be shipped to Los Angeles, California. The stainless steel wire mesh is supplied in five-meter rolls with an outside diameter of 500 mm, and each roll weighs 50 kg.

The second contract is with Brooks Brothers, a clothing company located in New York City, for warehousing and transportation of clothing in various sizes of cardboard boxes that easily assemble in one unit load on a 48-inch by 40-inch pallet. The goods will be shipped from New York, New York, to Sydney, Australia. For the purpose of this assignment you can make reasonable assumptions about the weight of the boxes.

SLM will manage a rapid flow of goods to and from Australia. The proposed warehouses in Australia will be located in proximity to two large metropolitan areas, Sydney and Melbourne. In the first year of its operations in Australia, SLM plans to handle an average of 200 20-foot equivalent units (TEUs) of imports and exports between the United States and Australia every month.

You are a Logistics Manager at SLM. As part of the company’s goal to strengthen its competitiveness in the global marketplace, the CEO has asked you to design a logistics plan for the proposed warehouse operations in Australia and transportation of goods between Australia and the United States.

In your report (allowing for reasonable assumptions when necessary),

• Select one of the two SLM contracts described above.
• Analyze the product’s physical properties, volume, and quantities to determine if the product’s shipment size is small (150 to 500 pounds) or a larger (consolidated) shipment (at least one TEU).
• Evaluate at least two modes of transportation that best support the organization’s supply chain for shipping the product from one country to another, door-to-door, in a multimodal shipment. Explain your reasoning.
• Identify the type of warehouses that SLM should employ in Australia to ensure a rapid movement of goods. Recommend either public, private, or contract warehousing and explain how your recommendation supports SLM’s supply chain management.
• List and describe the necessary commercial, banking, and shipping documents that comply with export and import procedures in the United States. These may include a commercial invoice, certificate of origin, shipper’s export declaration, shipper’s letter of instruction, bill of lading, freight bill, and letter of credit.
• Determine the appropriate Incoterms® 2010 rule, depending on the shipment mode and buyers’ and sellers’ responsibilities.
• Select a process (Lean, Six Sigma, Just-in-Time, or Kanban) and explain how the process can be implemented to ensure effective and efficient warehouse operations techniques are in place that support the company’s supply chain design.
• List a minimum of four additional budget line items in the table below with a rationale to ensure smooth warehouse operations in Australia. Support your rationale by including various logistics activity measures, cost drivers, profit models, and the role of inventory and how they influence SLM’s financial outcomes.

Character Evolution – Explain how a character from a novel, film, television show, or another medium of your choice evolves—either good or bad—from the beginning to the end of the story.

Your introduction will provide a brief synopsis of the story and then smoothly transition into the last sentence of your introduction—the thesis statement. Next, you will develop at least three body paragraphs, each dedicated to one example (such as a scene) in your chosen medium that serves as support for your thesis claim. Finally, you will compile a conclusion paragraph that synthesizes your findings.

Creating the thesis statement:

Is your argument focused and meaningful in a way that it also offers a clear-cut, but debatable point of view, which a reader might either agree or disagree with? Avoid claims that are too obvious to the readers—offer them a new idea! Remember, a thesis also serves as a map for your essay, providing a promise of subtopics you will discuss in your body paragraphs in the order in which they appear in your essay.

Sample thesis statement: In The Midnight’s Shadow, Charles Bellingham begins as a lonely, self-loathing candle maker, but after he meets Miss Charmaine, begins working for the king, and takes an understudy, he transforms into a confident man who sees the townspeople and the kingdom as a friendly and prosperous community.

Developing the body paragraphs:

The way you present your supporting evidence is just as important as the evidence itself. When you create a body paragraph with the goal of supporting a claim in your thesis, you want to include a balance of research and/or examples with original material. In other words, original material refers to discussions you develop that help explain the connection between your research and/or examples and your thesis claim. You don’t want to assume that your research and/or examples are enough to prove your thesis—you want to inform your reader how and why cited material serves the purpose you intend.

Therefore, begin each body paragraph with a topic sentence that affirms your opinion. A topic sentence for the first body paragraph in a paper with the thesis from above might say, “Miss Charmaine, ever so charming in her ways, bumps into a scowling Mr. Bellingham, only to annoy him further, but as he slowly raises his gaze to evaluate the source of this unpleasantry, he is rather surprised to see a such a lovely creature affectionately maintaining his stare, eliciting an intrigue that serves as the first defining moment in Charles’ positive transformation.” Next, follow up the topic sentence with more about this scene that serves as the defining moment. Then, spend significanttime explaining how the events you just discussed prove your thesis. Finally, end the paragraph with a concluding sentence that synthesizes your efforts.

Compiling the conclusion:

Lastly, compile a conclusion paragraph that summarizes your findings in a new manner, using fresh language and perspective. Make sure to work in a restatement of your thesis statement (but not a repetitive version) as well as any other relevant ideas you present in the essay. You want your conclusion to read like new information but without actually presenting new arguments. In sum, synthesize instead of summarize.

Conduct a policy analysis on a public health issue that has an impact on the health of populations. You are to select the public health issue and find 2 existing policies (i.e. laws, bills, resolutions) that address the public health issue. You will be conducting an analysis of the 2 existing policies as to how well they address the public health issue. Apply theoretical constructs of social change, health behavior, and social justice in planning public health interventions. Problem Statement: Define the problem to be analyzed. Include a brief description of the problem along with a well-stated problem statement. The problem statement should address its effect on the health of populations. The statement can be a neutral statement or a value-driven statement that provides information on the direction that the policy analysis may take. Background: In this section, the problem is defined in more detail that outlines any adverse effect on the health of populations. Vital statistics can be used to provide evidence that the problem indeed has an effect on the health of populations. In this section, you want the seriousness of the problem to be evident to the reader. Scientific data from studies, pertinent laws, and cost impact and financing can be included to indicate the depth of the problem. If there are any ethical considerations, these can be included in this section. Provide enough factual information that highlights the seriousness of the problem. Landscape: Key stakeholders and their positions as they relate to political, social, and economic factors are thoroughly discussed so that the reader has an adequate amount of information about the key stakeholders and their positions on the problem. Describe and analyze two policy alternatives that address the public health issue. The policies must address the best course of action in alleviating the public health issue you identified. Consider the outcomes of the policies as to how well they address the public health issue (1). This includes presenting the pros and cons of each policy (2). The pros and cons for each policy can be analyzed by cost, political feasibility, legality, fairness, timeliness, or targeted impact (3). How the policies will be evaluated needs to be considered with each policy (4).Offers one clear option from the two presented that best addresses the problem. If you think neither option best addresses the problem, a recommendation supported by scholarly literature is provided. Discusses the outcomes of the selected option carefully and provides reasons as to why this is the best option to pursue.

Assume that you have been tasked by your employer to develop an incident response plan. Create a list of stakeholders for the IR planning committee. For each type of stakeholder, provide the reasons for inclusion and the unique aspects or vision that you believe each of these stakeholders will bring to the committee.

This week, you will continue building your small MNC.  Work on addressing the following questions while continuing developing your small MNC:

• Assuming that your international business is successful, identify reasons why it may be feasible to establish a small subsidiary in the foreign country rather than continue exporting.
• Identify the disadvantages associated with establishing a small subsidiary in the foreign country of concern.
• Consider a possible project that would result in expansion of your international business. Describe how you would derive a required rate of return for this project. Compare the possible rates of return and compare them to domestic projects. Which one makes better sense for your MNC? Relate this information as if you were explaining it to shareholders.
• If you seriously considered whether to implement your international business idea, you would have to measure the costs and benefits of this idea. Describe how you would estimate the dollar revenue to be received from your business.
• Describe how you would estimate the expenses associated with your business.
• Describe how you would estimate the net cash flows (in dollars) of your business.
• Explain why your estimate of the net cash flows (in dollars) could be overestimated.

Describe in one to three paragraphs when you first heard this phrase (whichever you chose “like a girl” or “so gay”). Explain what the situation was, how old you were, whether it was toward you (personally), someone you were with or a stranger. Discuss if it made you feel anything in particular (e.g. good, bad, indifferent).

Draw from the readings (primarily) and videos (secondarily) to explain how the use of the phrases shapes an individual’s agency, experience, opportunities, desires, sexuality and/or perceptions of themselves or others. Think about “when and how” these phrases became bad/negative/used as insults. When/how did they get so much power? You must cite from the text here (in-text citations, however no reference- end page is needed as we are all working off of the same articles/videos).

Discuss how you think we (as a society) and you (as an individual) can combat the use of these phrases in day to day conversation and how we can work to empower “girls” and “gays” in a meaningful, positive way (vis a vis this use of language).
