The Origins Of The Occupational Safety And Health Act Of 1970, Patrick G. Donnelly
The Origins Of The Occupational Safety And Health Act Of 1970, Patrick G. Donnelly
Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work Faculty Publications
This paper analyzes the emergence of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 and finds previous explanations of its origin inadequate. I trace the roots of this law to the protests of rank-and-file workers across the United States at a time when the support of these workers was particularly important to the two main political parties. The protest was directed not only at those employers who operated unsafe and unhealthy workplaces, but also at union officials who paid little or no attention to safety and health issues in negotiating new contracts.

A Human Resource Planning Approach For Reducing The Cost Of Absenteeism, Dow Scott
A Human Resource Planning Approach For Reducing The Cost Of Absenteeism, Dow Scott
Dow Scott
Although absenteeism rates can be reduced significantly in most organizations, it must be recognized that absenteeism is a legitimate employee benefit and will occur at some level despite control efforts. The author proposes that a human resource planning approach can substantially reduce the cost of absenteeism by staffing for predicted levels of absenteeism. There are three preconditions for such an approach: (1) absenteeism measures must be developed and attendance data collected: (2) the probability that jobs will be vacant must be calculated; and (3) a cost analysis for alternative strategies of filling job vacancies must be completed. Diagnostic instruments are …

Trust Differences Between Blacks And Whites In An Organizational Setting, Dow Scott
Trust Differences Between Blacks And Whites In An Organizational Setting, Dow Scott
Dow Scott
As increased numbers of blacks enter jobs from which they were formerly excluded, concerns about whether they can perform the work and interact successfully with peers, subordinates, and superiors have been expressed [18]. This study examines a large organization that has been racially mixed through top management for over ten years. The author identifies and examines trust differences between black and white exempt employees (supervisors, managers and professionals) toward superiors, peers, and top management.

Attendance Control Techniques: Union Vs. Non-Union Differences In The Southeast United States, S E. Markham, Dow Scott
Dow Scott
This research examines both the rate of absenteeism and the attendance control methods found in a sample of 423 union and non-union organizations located in the Southeast United States. These data indicate that absenteeism rates for union and non-union organizations are not significantly different. Methods of controlling absenteeism are reported for both union and non-union facilities. Implications for the control of absenteeism are discussed.

The Nominal Group Technique: Applications For Training Needs Assessment, Dow Scott, D Deadrick
Dow Scott
Recommends that the nominal group technique (NGT), a structured group meeting conducted by a group leader, be performed on 3 analytical levels: organization, operations, and person. A principle value of the NGT is the emotional commitment developed by involving not only supervisors but potential trainees as well. Strengths and weaknesses of this training-needs assessment are discussed.
