The General Objectives Of Business Operations

Employees under the union contract don’t want to follow the hotel’s rules which causes a conflict between the union leaders and the hotel management. Also the union employees take advantage because union employees are hard to get fired even though the hotel management know that they don’t perform a good job, this become an issue for the hotel.. These employees argue that they are under the union contract and fight until they get their job back or solve the problem to their

There were a lot of issues that prompted employees at the Frontier hotel to take striking as an action to be heard. When watching this documentary for the first time I didn’t realize how long these workers were on strike for. One word to describe the owners of these hotels is “savages”. They started to fire individuals for no apparent reason it seemed the owners wanted to cut back. There was one girl that worked in the culinary department for eight years and she was let go. The hotel also took away health insurance benefits, pension contributions for employees trying to retire and the most important cutting employee wages for the hotel to save money and for the owners to profit even more letting these employees work next to nothing. A lot of workers said they felt their pride was being taken away also trying to take care of their own family will be even more inflexible. The hotel took away everything so these employees had no chose but to strike.

They upgrading a hotel first upgraded employee facilities. When a survey at London hotel showed dissatisfaction with workers’ areas, installed new floors, lockers, and showers within three months. Four-seasons needed to get it down to the front line: clerks, bell-staff, bartenders, waiters, cooks, housekeepers, and dishwashers, the lowest-paid and in most companies the least-motivated people, but the ones who would make or break a five-star service reputation. Four-seasons needs employees able and willing to respond on their own to whatever comes up, employees who can spot, solve, and even anticipate problems. That means delegating authority as well as responsibility. Four-seasons pay attention on how to treat employees and make them feel confortable when they work in hotel because employees could bring positive attitude towards customers if they in good mood.

Contemporary globalization of businesses and growing global market competition has made effective human resource planning as one of the major strategies to forge ahead and remain proactive. It can be said that an organization 's success lies to a great extent to the knowledge, skills, creativity, and dedication of its workforce. Every aspect of an organization needs human capital to drive its activities or operations to achieve individual strategic goals and objectives towards its purpose of existence, growth, and competitive status. Companies can compete at all levels of the marketplace through improved commitment not only through creativity, innovation, and research, but also human resource development (Truong, Heijden, & Rowley, 2010). In this regard, the human resource planning is needed to ensure a systematic analysis of human resource needs so that the right quantity and quality of employees are always available when required. Fundamentally, organizations are looking for the best people that would help drive them to their desired destination of achieving their missions. Therefore, it is important to develop human resource strategies to support organizational strategies, through measures such as forecasting human resource requirements, and effective strategic staffing. Technically, an organization 's mission, goals, and objectives drive its strategy and human resource (HR) and staffing strategy in an interactive manner. The purpose of this

IDENTIFY AND REVIEW THE RELEVANT RANGE OF OPERATIONS AND THE SPHERE OF BUSINESS ARRANGEMENTS OF THE ORGANISATION

In order to engage the employees the Portman must be dedicated to a performance management system. This cannot be the “system of the month” that simply creates hype for a time and then fades away, as they experienced with the 5-Star system. The hotel must set goals, monitor and evaluate these goals, provide feedback and create a reward and recognition program. (Krasner, 244). With the introduction of the 5-Star Program, the Portman relied on the PV’s to participate in the problem solving for the hotel. The Portman should again rely on the employees with the establishment of a performance management system by using a Management by Objectives system. This type of system would incorporate participation from the employees for decision making, goal setting and objective feedback (Kreitner, 246). This program should begin with the strategic plan of the hotel and then set goals for employees that will align with the hotels organizational objective. These goals should be set using the SMART method (Kreitner, 248). Once the goals are set, management must get commitment from the staff that they believe these goals are attainable and that they believe in why they are pursuing these goals. If the Portman uses staff to set these goals, commitment will be easier to

Sergey had a number of girls as assistants. They were all attractive and caught Japes fancy. Now that Japes had made it as an executive, he realized that romance with a subordinate would be inappropriate. So there would be no romance, but he certainly spent fruitful working hours in the girl’s company and helped make their lives fun. A union in a hotel is the most ridiculous thing Japes had ever seen. Unions for servers were marginally necessary many years ago as the Bulls had abused workers and paid terrible wages. Hotel work, for the housekeeping department, was all about routine. Although it is hard physical work when one becomes proficient at it can be rewarding. These servers got paid a low-wage and deserved every penny they made. The extra monies that the union got for these servers, was taken up in paying their dues to the union representatives. It made no sense to Japes at that hotel or any hotel he would work at in the future. In fact, the maintenance and front office departments chose not to join the union. They realized that the only ones that benefited from the union were the union reps themselves. The hotel was poorly organized and there were times that the housekeeping department did not have enough linen to make up guest rooms. The housekeeping staff, especially the maids, would leave at a specific time. Japes and All-in on a few occasions would join Sergey and her assistants

One of the main tasks of the enterprises of various forms of ownership and spheres of activity - the search for effective ways to manage labor to ensure the activation of the human factor and achieve the best production results.

Low morale among employees in any company eventually leads to decreased profits with other factors of the business decreasing along the way. “And US Airways employees, who have seen their pay cut by more than 20 percent and their health insurance and pension plans shrink, are certainly an unhappy lot” (Claudia H. Deutsch). In order to increase profits, the airline has decreased pay and took away some of the earned vacation. “Company executives say they are taking steps that will improve working conditions and profitability” (Claudia H. Deutsch). Many employees were calling in sick which the company believed would eventually lead to poor customer service.

In order to amplify its potential, the government gave contract to change RDH to Hotel International (HI), a reputed global management organization. The new management (HI) took over and started implement the changes to meet the international standards. But the employees could not go under the sudden changes because of their habit of traditional way of working and without having reasonable answers to their questions. This made them feels pressurized and moreover, the policies and procedures implemented were perceived as against the local

However, the operations of first month at the Portman Hotel was as not as managers and PVs expected. All PVs expected they could offer guests what the guests wanted, but most of the PVs are doing cleaning which is not what they want to do before they decided to work here. Those who saw this position as a ground-floor entry job into an exciting new concept in the hotel business were disillusioned with the hotel's strategy.

Part of EnerMech’s strategy is to expand its global footprint into the western hemisphere, due to the location of the oil in gas in politically unstable countries for example Brazil and Colombia. Since 2010, oil production has flattened out entirely. In 2013, Brazil averaged only 2.7 million bpd of oil production, which is where it was three years ago. This is due to corruption and money laundering in the major Brazilian oil producing companies. http://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/Problems-At-Petrobras-Mount-As-Brazils-Oil-Production-Stagnates.html Local content legislation is also obstructing production.
