Green Human Resource Management– A leap towards sustainability

‘Green’ today has become a buzz word only due to the corporates and the individuals understanding that the consumption levels of resources made by them are higher than what is available. This justifies the fact that there is enough for the world’s need but not enough for the world’s greed. From this emerged the concept of sustainability and greening. Green earlier was important only to the non-governmental organizations because their work style was focused on societal welfare which included the optimal utilization of the available resources. But, slowly the same responsibility of optimally utilizing resources was taken up by various industries. Here, at an industrial level, measures were taken to control pollution and thus, the entire industry worked towards it. However, it was never imagined that the same zeal of going green would percolate to all the management functions of the organizations. The human resource function is one of them has largely adopted this greening factor that leads to the rise of the term or the method of ‘Green Human Resource Management’ also known as GHRM. Today the same is not just a method adopted to reduce the carbon footprint or to optimally utilize resources, but, is also a factor of competitive advantage. It has proved not just sustainability but has also lead to an increase in the profits of the firms along with increased goodwill. The study done on the same lines wishes to fulfill four main objectives, First of them was to identify & explore the awareness levels of Green HRM among the employees in an organization. A sample size of 146 respondents was taken into consideration in order to fulfill this objective. The second one is to analyze the views of employees on Green HRM and its effectiveness in organizational growth and environmental sustainability. The third was to identify a few Green HRM practices incorporated in various corporates across cities in India. The fourth was to understand whether (if yes, how) Green HRM practices impact employees and the environment. The second, third and fourth objectives were fulfilled by conducting this study on a mixture of both public and private sector companies located in Bangalore and Chennai. The study then concludes with suggestions to corporates regarding the implementation of green human resource practices leading to increased profitability.

Rehabilitation of arch bridges with lithely arch method

Lithely arch method is the innovative, modern, economic and fastest method of construction of arch bridges. This method is invented in Maharashtra, India. Bridges constructed using this method are purely compressive in nature. This method utilizes precast units for construction of arch bridges. This method can be utilized for rehabilitation of old arch bridges in India very economically and with less time

Financial inclusion “Integrating India with the world”

Around the world, 1.7 billion adults remain financially excluded and roughly 70% of the world poor lives in middle-income countries, including India. India regards 6th largest in terms of nominal GDP and 3rd in Purchasing power parity and one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Despite India boasting economic growth rates higher than most developed countries in recent years, a majority of the country’s population are the part of financial exclusion. Towards faster financial inclusion, the financial institutions have to recognize and encourage taking up larger responsibilities on domestic and global levels. Finance and finance related institutions have a very crucial and a wider role to play in fostering financial inclusion. The policy makers will bring the possibilities and uplift the poor through the process of becoming stronger and more confident, especially in controlling one's life and claiming one's rights know as empowerment. The paper is organized in two sections, first presents the financial inclusion status of India with help of Global index data, Crisil inclusix index and Reserve bank of India. Then the next section followed by the government initiated schemes such as Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana, Insurance Schemes, Mudra Yojana, Make in India and Digital India, to boost up financial inclusion among the working-age population and integrate India with the world.

Multi-route coding for reduction of IR drop losses and length

This paper mainly focused on the reduction of path length by using multi-route coding, which provides for reducing the signal integrity problems like power dissipation and IR drop losses. Here we use multi-route coding is incorporated into diagonal routing to give the enhance the reduction of path length with varying of wire length and width, which leads to analyze the IR drop. Finally, we compare these results with triangular and square topologies with respect lengths as well as the drop variables also analyzed.

Biophilic image of built up green space in Barddhaman town, West Bengal

With the Global urban population expected to double to around 6.5 billion by 2050 (WVP, 2014), bio – prospective in the cities of the Developed World is increasing gradually while is decreasing in the Developing World with some exception in the metropolitan cities due to environmental planning. This worsening scenario of decreasing green, as well as the animal in the city space, is not a healthy sing from an ecological perspective. Therefore perception of city dwellers be changed in terms of bio perspective for prospecting of greens, forest and also the living wild animal species. Due to this Global trend towards urbanization, in city and peri- urban green senses will play an increasingly important role in the future. The wellbeing of cities population especially in megacities will increasingly depends on ecosystem services provided by urban green space. Urban green space in addition to ensuring valuable traditional goods also furnish a species of socio-economic benefits such as Bio-diversity conservation, the mitigation of at atmospheric population, air quality of urban micro climate imperilments the enhancement of cities aesthetic, as well as providing recreational and cultural opportunities, such as environmental awareness mainly terms of Bio-prospective.

Thesis

Experimental investigation strength properties of concrete incorporating fly ash and silica fume in cement and replacing river sand by foundry sand and M-sand

Sand mining is a current problem faced by the construction industry in the present day. Hence there is a need to identify suitable alternatives to natural river sand as fine aggregate in concrete to cater the future demand of fine aggregate. Foundry sand, a waste product obtained from metal foundry is identified as a potential replacement to river sand. The present investigations are focused on fly ash concrete mixes incorporating foundry, M sand as a fine aggregate. In this study, the strength and durability properties with incorporating of cement with fly ash and silica fume with different levels of replacement (0%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30%) of river sand with foundry sand and M-sand are evaluated. The present study will address the disposal related problem of fly ash and foundry sand, thus reducing environmental hazards and also will lead to the conservation of natural fine aggregate for future.

Case Study

Text reader using convolutional Neural Networks

Vision loss may be a drawback that affects individuals all around the world. As pcs have gotten higher at understanding pictures because of advances in computer vision, the idea of a virtual assistant for the blind that would scan text1, identify/spot objects2, or maybe describe an entire scene in natural language3 is turning into more and more realistic. In this project, I created an Associate in Nursing robot application capable of reading aloud Network, text (e.g. product labels, price tags, text on clothing). the appliance uses a classifier trained exploitation the MS-COCO4 and COCO-Text5 datasets to seem for text and uses Google Cloud Vision to extract the text.

Implosion of water: Boon for agriculture

With the increase in population (approx. 133.92 crores), there is a crisis of water in raising a crop, especially in the drought-prone areas. With uneven utilization of water, the water level is decreasing continuously. So, there is great need to evolve such a technique that increases crop yield per unit volume of the water (water productivity). There is hope that implosion of Water using Phase Conjugate Magnetic Part And Centripetal Implosive Part Improves Growth attribute of seed and the plant.
