Essays on Incident

Introduction: According to Thaden and Alyssa (2008), “human error is the main cause of flight accidents in complex systems. Therefore since errors are inevitable in the commercial airline industry, it is doubtful to assure safety on the air.” On the other hand, Mangla and Haress (2011) claim that - “air travel is the safest mode in the history of aviation.” Whose statement is reliable between them? In aviation, it is true that human error leads to accidents in the sky, but it is also true that for every accident that happens on the air, the airline company reviews their ...

The book “Country of My Skull” has been written by Antjie Krog, who strives to include her own as well as other individuals’ stories about the creation, development, and conclusion of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC). The truth and reconciliation commission was in charge of uncovering past wrongdoings in Africa and was established to bring the perpetrators and criminals to justice.

Impacts of Social Media on Public Relations Practices and Crisis Management

Social media has created a channel for organizations, particularly public relations managers to communicate issues ascribed to crisis management. However, it has also increased pressure among public relations managers who struggle to formulate or craft messages as well as main control information that flows from diverse users.

Benefits resulting from Due Diligence for Responsible Business Report

CSR generates benefits for a business internally as well as for the external stakeholders. However, it is challenging to monetize the benefits of the CSR since much of the benefits are only visible in long run. In addition, the challenge comes from the fact that they are indirectly led to by the positive changes of the CSR (Sino-German, 2012). On the other hand, whether firms are likely and able to practice the CSR is highly dependent on their managers’ incentives as well as constraints that are in turn determined by their preferences, contracts, ethical beliefs and objectives. The major ...

Abstract

Domestic violence, as its name suggests, involves intimate partner and family violence. The law has historically treated domestic violence as only a secondary issue. The treatment reflects the longstanding notion that family and domestic matters are private and should not be subject to law enforcement interference. Compounding this blasé attitude towards domestic violence was the fact that traditionally, women were considered to belong to their husbands. Until very recently, a husband could not be prosecuted for the rape of his wife. What is important to note is that domestic violence affects all types of persons. There is no one, ...

Abstract The successful flight of an aircraft is often attributed to the finesse of its pilots as well as the dispatcher. It is a common practice in air crash investigations to put the blame of such a mishap on the shoulders of its pilots and the air traffic control unit. Most often, the other factors that are inclusive in any successful flight, is omitted. This paper tries to analyze these causes from the perspective of National Transport Safety Board, to generate an independent view about the crash of UPS Flight 1354. After thorough inspection of NTSB reports three main ...

Introduction

The Sandy Hooks debacle sent shock waves throughout the American education system and by extension, compelled other forward thinking nations to review their respective educational systems. In unison, the community around the Sandy Hooks Elementary School, the nation and the international community at large rallied behind the victims of the tragic events.

Introduction

This paper aims to relate the concepts of and the paradoxes behind equity, efficiency, security, and liberty to a news article titled San Francisco students suspended over racist ‘wigger party’ by Kale Williams (2016). It reports the incident where over twelve high school students were suspended from San Francisco’s St. Ignatius College Preparatory for taking part in a “wigger party,” a racist themed party where White individuals emulate the culture of African Americans through a depiction of the stereotypes in mannerisms and clothing (Williams, 2016).

One of the hallmarks of the US criminal law is the extent of protections afforded to criminal defendants. While a large body of criminal procedure has been developed and refined through case law, the US Constitution lays the foundation for procedural protections that are guaranteed to a criminal defendant. Law enforcement at all levels are required to adhere to such protections and guarantees. The reason that such projections and safeguards are so important for a criminal defendant is to prevent the government from abusing its power. In most cases, a criminal defendant will have considerably fewer resources and means ...

The health and safety representative have to find out the health and safety issues the staff believes are important and convey these issue to the management (Queensland Government, 2016). Therefore, it is important to describe the process we undertook to identify, analyse and consult on the risk. We tried to implemented the well-known risk management process using the four major stages, which are identifying the hazards, assessing the risks (if required), controlling them and reviewing the control measures (SafeWork Sa, 2011). First, we filled the incident report, with all the necessary information recorded. We tried not only be descriptive, ...

Meyer et al., (2009, 38-39) stated that organisms are usually “grouped” according to their traits in a single taxon which is to track the original ancestor of the specie; the traditional naming was based on the Linnaean classification composed of: kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and specie. It is important to note first the characteristics of the organism before naming. In the scientific world, taxonomy is the universal language in which scientists from different nations understood each other because of the Latinized classifications as a result of the physical attributes, performance, lifespan, location of the discovery, cell structure, ...

Preventable hospital re-hospitalizations are key quality and patient safety concerns. Statistics suggest that one in every five Medicare enrollees is re-hospitalized within 30 days of discharge from an acute care facility, and an estimated 75% of these readmissions are avoidable. Readmissions are expensive costing the United Sates (US) healthcare system an estimated $17 billion annually. The 2010 affordable care act established the Medicare Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program. This program offers a financial incentive to hospitals to reduce excess readmissions (Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, 2013). In efforts to avoid Medicare penalties, hospitals around the country have implemented programs aimed at ...

Introduction

It was in 1993 when dozens of girls in Chihuahua, Mexico were murdered and dumped around the city to be left out as if they were garbage (Wright, 2011, p.707). The number of murders grew over the years, as police officers proved unable to control and find the perpetrators, until the protesters had become the activists. The town became a place of femicide, and currently, it has become a place of Narcopolitics. In this area, the connection between drugs and the dynamics of power appeared to be relentless. This took place even during the opium trade when Western imperialism ...

This brief essay examines ethical considerations surrounding two military and politically-charged events, one in 1960 and the other in 1968.

The U-2 incident occurred as the U.S. was gathering data on Soviet missile sites. President Eisenhower affirmed the value and continued use of U-2 flights for important reconnaissance data needed to negotiate with the Russians who were withholding vital weapons information.

Following the American Psychological Association’s Guidelines

The story of the USS Indianapolis was quite controversial during the World War II and after its end. Many things were covered-up, and they remain hidden nowadays. According to MacMillan Dictionary, cover-up is “an attempt to stop people from discovering the truth about something, especially a crime or a serious mistake.” Cover-up and lack of information was the reason why the captain of Indianapolis McVay was accused of the sinking and committed suicide (Stanton, 2001). War is one big mess, where information gets lost and misinterpreted all the time. It is extremely hard to keep things in order in ...

How was the My Lai Massacre reported by the U.S. media? 1680 words

Plan of the investigation

How did the United States media represent the My Lai Massacre? What did the incident look like in the American newspapers? I have chosen this topic because the importance of the media during the Vietnam War (particularly the My Lai) cannot be underrated. The U.S. media influence Americans’ perception of the event, as the primary information was reversed and many details were never revealed. Throughout the world history, many countries did the same thing in order to avoid panic and unneeded criticism. In this particular case, ...

Organizational culture refers to the underlying values, beliefs, norms, assumptions, and the mode of interaction existing in a particular work setting of an organization (Lubis & Hanum, 2020, p. 88).

Perhaps the most pitiful person in the text is Lily because of how she is treated by her husband. First of all, she is a school dropout. She then goes on to get married to Floyd, a young man who owns a pool hall ...

Application: The Ethics and Legalities of Medication Error Disclosure

When making an unintentional error in prescribing a drug to a patient, and considering the ethics of disclosure and nondisclosure, there are many implications that can come as a result of such an action. From an ethical standpoint, the ANA Code of Ethics is quite clear; in the case of an error, “nurses are expected to follow institutional guidelines in reporting errors committed or observed to the appropriate supervisory personnel” (2010). From a legal standpoint, errors are equally maligned; in the state of Texas, the Texas Board of Nursing states their belief that “protection of the public is not enhanced by the reporting ...

Responding to emergency situation requires constant preparation in anticipation of an untoward event. Auf der Heide’s disagreement to the assumption that disaster response is an extension of daily emergency procedures is apparently true to my perspective.

Inferences and Assumptions

Two important aspects of reasoning are the usage of inferences and assumptions. An inference is a conclusion that is drawn (or made) from a combination of many factors. Many inferences -- or conclusions -- are drawn from underlying assumptions. Underlying assumptions are facts that are taken for granted, or presuppositions. If an underlying assumption is invalid or incorrect, then, by necessity, the inferences one makes are skewed, and do not reflect the reality of the matter at hand. Many people -- including myself -- make inferences based on underlying assumptions. It is a normal, healthy aspect of everyday decision-making. However, when one's ...
