Age Discrimination in Employment (Paperback)

Distinction based on age was and still seems to be common practice at workplace without the question arising whether the applied measures and practices are objectively justified. However, such ignorance no longer seems acceptable nowadays in view of the individual's dignity as well as in view of economical issues. Fertility rates decrease and older workers leave employment too early. Current pension systems are not designed to finance the longevity of today's retirees. It should be of special concern to eliminate any discrimination against older workers which deprives them of the possibility to work. This study compares age discrimination legislation of Europe, Germany and the USA regarding access to employment, conditions of employment and termination of employment. It also integrates an economic and sociological viewpoint and offers a possible solution to better eradicate discrimination. This study addresses academics and professionals in the field of labour law and will also be of

Business and Private International Law in the EU (Paperback)

This book acts as a guide to companies doing business with parties in the European Union. It provides the reader with answers to key questions of private international law. When and under which conditions can the court(s) of an EU Member State assume jurisdiction and which law will be applied? Will the resulting judgment be recognised and enforced in other EU Member States? In addition to a general explanation of the system of private international law in the EU Member States, the book provides answers on questions of jurisdiction and applicable law in a selection of areas: the negotiation and conclusion of general contracts, consumer contracts, individual employment contracts, directors' liability and tort. The integrated treatment of jurisdiction and applicable law for each of these subjects also makes the book an excellent guide to legal practice.

Acoustically effective façades design (Paperback)

The silhouettes of the great European metropolises are characterised by a high density of high-rise facades made of glass, metal or stone. On one hand this density stands for economic power and good employment values. On the other hand, the large sound-reflecting surfaces in the cities are responsible for an increase in sound pollution in their vicinity. They cause the most frequent inner-city sound source, traffic noise, to double in perceived intensity. Direct sound and reflected sound add up in the urban environment. This effect of sound level increase through reflection has been subject of acoustic research for some time. In architecture, however, the topic of noise reflection has been completely neglected. But it is exactly these concentration processes in the continuously growing metropolises that make architects face problems that they cannot solve with their own tools alone. For example, placing bedrooms in the quiet part of a building is only possible if there are quiet areas.

Transformation in Composition (Paperback)

This study enlarges on the notion of composition in landscape architecture, building on the 'Delft Method', which elaborates composition as a methodological framework for landscape design. At the same time it takes a critical stance in respect to this method in response to recent developments in landscape architecture such as the site-specicity and process discourses. The notion of composition is examined from a historical, theoretical and lexical perspective, before turning to an examination of the brownfield park project realised in the period 1975-2015. These projects emerge as an important laboratory for developments in landscape architecture, whereby contextual, process, and formal-aesthetic aspects form central and inter-related themes. The thesis of this research is that a major theoretical and methodological expansion of the notion of composition can be distilled from the brownfield park project, in which seemingly irreconcilable paradigms such as site, process and form are

Managing safety, health and environmental risks in laboratories (Paperback)

Different chemicals and different methods of analysis are used in each laboratory. Such a fact does not make it easy to provide a standard guideline for working in the laboratory in a safe and environmentally friendly manner. This book helps the reader to better assess the risks that they may come across in their own unique situation, and to take suitable precautionary measures. An approach focused on sources is a central component of this effort. With the proper approach and common sense, each laboratory employee can find practical solutions that will make his or her workplace safer. This book provides tips for working safely with chemicals, biological agents, radioactive substances, equipment, gas cylinders, cryogenic substances and glassware. Attention is also given to the physical load presented by lab activities. This new edition includes the recent changes in radiation protection legislation and the changes in laser characterisation. The text has also been adapted to incorporate

The Triple Layered Business Model Canvas in practice (Paperback)

The traditional, “old” economic mindset - centered on linear growth as the primary goal - is a thing of the past. Long-term, circular thinking is the new focus. But how do you combine economic prosperity with environmental benefits and human well-being? The Triple Layered Business Model Canvas has proven to be a clear, accessible and logical model for learning to think about “new economics.” The model consists of three layers, starting with the ECONOMIC LAYER, where you describe how you create, realize and deliver value. This first layer stems from the Business Model Canvas, which is widely used in practice and study. The second layer is the ECOLOGICAL LAYER, and the third is the SOCIAL LAYER. Each layer features nine building blocks that are explained and illustrated using examples from real companies. What makes this book unique is the combination of the above three layers with a fourth: the PERSONAL LAYER. This last layer stems from the Business Model You, where the focus is on you.

The Return of Ethics and Spirituality in Global Development (Paperback)

The theory of modernization basically reduces the meaning of development to economic growth often measured by Growth Domestic Product of the country or overall purchase power parity of the nation. This approach ignores the variety of perspectives on development, hence excludes the role of culture, identity, and spirituality as social determinants of good development. More importantly, modernization theory which informs the mainstream view on development ignores the structural causes of underdevelopment, including colonial heritage or the current unbridled capitalism in many societies. Against reductionist views of development, fundamental questions are raised about the theory and programming of development. From what perspective is the conception of development perceived? Who should decide and depict development goals? What kind of development could result in desirable changes? Is it morally desirable to dictate an exclusively Western understanding of development to others? Is there
