...Employees Home Depot and the Pandemic
The novel coronavirus (COVID 19) has affected business operations across the globe because of the health and safety risk it poses.

Why The Gender Wage Gap Is Really A Myth
...Employees The Wage Gap
Whether or not the wage gap exists depends entirely upon who one asks. If one is asking Christina Hoff Sommers, resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and writer for Time, she will say, no, it does not exist: “The bottom line: the 23-cent gender pay gap is simply the difference between the average earnings of all men and women working full-time.” The enduring myth that “women earn 77 cents for every dollar a man earns—for doing the same work” is based on the average earnings statistic—not on an actual analysis of a side by side comparison of pay for men and women doing the same work (Sommers). But if you ask Nikki Graf, Anna Brown and Eileen Patten, writing for Pew Research, you will research a much different answer. They argue that the pay gap is closing but that women are still behind by as much……

What Business Entity Structure Should Be Used
...Employees The company should operate as a C corporation. There are a few reasons for this choice of business structure. As a sole proprietorship, Bob faces a number of challenges, including the reality that his legal downside includes his personal property. Maintaining his business as a sole proprietorship will also have tax and timing implications for when he wants to pass the business on to his daughter. Therefore, the sole proprietorship should be a non-starter. He has the option of S and C corporations, and there are specific implications for each of these.
An S corporation elects to “pass corporate income, losses, deductions and credits through to their shareholders for federal tax purposes” (IRS.gov, 2020). The company is eligible to be an S corporation, as it meets the criteria that the IRS has laid out. One of the risks, however, is in the transfer of ownership to Mandy, in particular if……

Marcus Aurelius
...Employees Comparing Marcus Aurelius and His Stoicism with Rousseau s Libertinism
Marcus Aurelius: What Has Been Lost
Natural law ethics were articulated by Aristotle in classical Greek philosophy and have been a mainstay of Western philosophy ever since, being discussed by Roman philosophers, early Church Fathers and Scholastics in the Middle Ages. It was not until the Reformation and the Age of Enlightenment when modern society began to reject the Old World values where natural law conformed with moral law. Enlightenment philosophers like Jean-Jacques Rousseau abandoned the notion of Original Sin and of fallen human nature and viewed natural law from a liberal perspective in which every human impulse was deemed good regardless of whether form followed function (Laux). For Rousseau liberty was what mattered most, and that meant rejection of the order of the medieval Church and of the doctrines of sin and redemption. It also meant rejecting the natural……

Strategy Development For Nonprofit Organizations
...Employees Strategy Development
Big Splash
Making a big splash to establish a new policy has its risks, but this approach can be advantageous as well. The current situation is that there are only a few volunteers working with the organization regularly and they are facing burnout. So there is a problem that may break soon, and threaten the ability of the organization to do its work. The training seminars are going to be a barrier for those who are already working to continue, and a further barrier to attracting new people to do this work. There is no particular evidence that the seminars are going to solve any problem at all, so I would treat them with some skepticism. This is especially true in that 75% of volunteers are one-offs, and the number of one-offs might drop to near zero if they have to attend the seminars before volunteering.
The advantages……
