When seeing a resident in public, you should not mention knowing them from a care facility in case they wish to keep that a secret from the person they may be with.

This report will be about my chosen business Tesco. I will talk about the recruiting and selection process of Tesco. I chose Tesco because Tesco is one of the biggest supermarkets and they exist long time ago and they have been successful. Tesco has more than 250 employees so it is counted as a large business. Tesco was found in 1919 by Jack Cohen. Tesco on his first day made profit £1 from sales £4. Tesco’s brand appeared in 1924. Tesco has also bank, insurance company and petrol stations. Tesco have 476 000 employees so it is large business because is also international business.

Increasing security threat: Zara were working from a decentralised IT system based on floppy disks, providing little opportunity to access highly valuable data on a networked database. The majority of security breeches originate with careless or vindictive employees (Austin and Darby, 2003).
