Abstract

Pre‐retirement activities, ranging from man‐to‐man counselling to weekend “bargain breaks” in hotels, are expanding. The most active organisation in the field is the Pre‐Retirement Association, covering the scope of personnel, education and training. Core contents of all seminars in this area tend to be similar, covering finance, health and fitness, and retirement activities. (List of commercial organisers included.)

Abstract

Two former “proposals” will become embodied in new legislation now that the return of a Conservative administration has removed uncertainties. The first of these (to enable employers and employees to agree on non‐cash forms of wage payment) will demand research and education. The second (to be dealt with later) will require some constructive rethinking of training in manual lifting and handling as it will reduce the areas for excuse for manual handling accidents.

Abstract

When we start to worry about the pound dollar exchange rate and maybe to think that there is something awe inspiring about ‘parity’ (ie $1 exchanging for £1) — we might just remember that forty years ago the £ was worth five dollars and at the same time our standard of living was about half of that we enjoy today. Money doesn't matter — what does is the goods and the services that go to make up our living standards.

Abstract

A FEW MONTHS ago we were listening to a management consultant who had arrived here from the USA, though he was originally an Israeli. We did not agree with all the things he said. One of his audience, in fact, asked a question based on one of his statements that he seemed to have difficulty in answering. Certainly it did not seem to satisfy his questioner.

He said that the publication of a discussion paper on industry, education and management underlined that industry in Britain today had many first class managers who made vital contributions to the economy.

Abstract

IT was no surprise to us, that news published just as this issue was being prepared, that Clive Sinclair was in an advanced stage of examining the possibilities of his firm, known all over the world as pioneers of electronics and the one which has brought micro‐computers within the reach of every family, expanding into the production of battery‐driven electric motorcars. He has recognised, as so many other directorates have failed to do, that the recession can only be beaten by finding new markets for new products. The world of yesteryear will never return.
