Evaluting Military Compensation


Free Download Jaime G. Duenas, "Evaluting Military Compensation "
English | ISBN: 1607414767 | 2009 | 85 pages | PDF | 3 MB
This book evaluates military compensation. To attract and retain the military personnel it needs, the Department of Defense (DOD) must offer a competitive compensation package – one that adequately rewards service members for the rigors of military life. After reenlistment rates declined in the late 1990’s, lawmakers and the DOD began increasing cash and non-cash elements of military compensation. In 2000, for example, they authorised that basic pay for service members would rise 0.5 percentage points faster that wages in the civilian sector through 2006. Housing allowances and other compensation were also increased. This book looks at compensation for the 83 percent of active-duty U.S. service members who are enlisted personnel. It considers various ways to measure military compensation and examines common methods of, and problems with, comparing that compensation with pay and benefits in the civilian sector. The analysis also explores the connection between the components of military compensation and the military’s recruiting and retention of personnel. It also discusses possible options to make the military compensation system visible to service members and decision-makers more efficient.

Strategic Compensation in Canada, Fifth Edition, by Richard Long is part of the market-leading Nelson Education Series in Human Resources Management. This text balances and integrates the strategic, behavioural, and technical principles for identifying and designing the compensation system that will add the most value to an organization. This is accomplished within a systematic framework that is based on a foundation of scientific research and relevant theories and verified by actual organizational experiences. This approach is delivered in an informal writing style and supported by strong pedagogical features―such as opening vignettes, Compensation Today, Compensation Notebook, and end-of-chapter material―that maximize its value as an effective learning tool. Students’ learning can be further enhanced by the accompanying Strategic Compensation: A Simulation, Fifth Edition, which provides students with the opportunity to design an entire compensation system, from strategy formulation to implementation of the new pay structure, complete with market-based actual dollars attached to the pay ranges. This simulation has been specifically designed by its authors (Richard Long and Henry Ravichander) to utilize all the steps along the road map to effective compensation, as described in the Strategic Compensation in Canada text.

In May 2005, the International Max Planck Research School for Maritime Affairs organized an international conference addressing marine pollution. At the conf- ence venue, the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, academics and practitioners debated recent developments from an interdisciplinary perspective. The papers shed light upon ecological aspects, upon the efforts of the international community to prevent and combat marine pollution by appropriate institutions and regulations, and upon the compensation of losses which have occurred despite those efforts. The present volume collects the papers of the conference and at the same time conveys an impression of the diversity of subjects discussed in the International Max Planck Research School for Maritime Affairs. The editors of this book have been supported by advice and help from several persons: In particular we are indebted to Dr. Silke Knaut and Dr. Anatol Dutta for their editorial assistance, to Anna-Maria Hubert who, as a native speaker, carried out the linguistic revision of several papers, and to Ingeborg Stahl for the prepa- tion of the manuscript.

Compulsory Insurance and Compensation for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage


Free Download Compulsory Insurance and Compensation for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage By Dr. Ling Zhu (auth.)
2007 | 242 Pages | ISBN: 3540459006 | PDF | 3 MB
Oil tankers are not the only vessels that have caused oil pollution at sea. Numerous spills in the past have been of heavy fuel oil from non-tankers. However, the international liability and compensation regime covered only oil pollution damage caused by oil tankers. There was thus a need to bring the law on marine oil pollution responsive to oil pollution damage caused by non-tankers. In March 2001, the International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage was adopted following a diplomatic conference at the International Maritime Organization. Though this convention has not yet come into force, its various aspects should already be considered as they will surely affect the maritime industry as a whole and the non-tanker sector, in particular. This book provides a timely and comprehensive study on the concept of compulsory insurance, its main purpose of ensuring compensation and its interrelations with other features such as the rule of strict liability and the limitation of liability under the convention.
