Employers innovate to reduce job losses

Across Europe, companies react to plummeting demand by trying to find innovative solutions that fall short of simply firing people, the Financial Times reports. In looking at possibilities such as pay cuts, leave of absence or job sharing, companies are hoping to avoid some of the problems from the last downturn when cutting staff too severely led to trouble when a recovery came. For example, many German manufacturers are still struggling to fill engineering jobs after their non hiring of such positions at the start of this decade led to a sharp fall in engineering graduates.

This Week's Top Headlines

Financial Crisis Prompts Economists to Rethink Regulation

Several high-profile economists—including five Nobel Prize winners—gathered in Trieste, Italy, to discuss the urgent need to reshape regulations of the banking sector. The economists called for an overhaul of both international banking regulation and the regulation of financial markets. They also argue that any new regulatory regime needs to restrict activities of commercial banks.

Obama Environment Team Plans Green Measures to Stimulate Economy

President-elect Barack Obamas newly nominated top energy and environmental advisers—Nobel Prize-winning physicist Steven Chu, former U.S. Environmental Protection Agency head Carol Browner, New Jerseys former head of Environmental Protection Lisa Jackson, and Deputy Mayor of Los Angeles Nancy Sutley—plan to revive the U.S. economy by boosting renewable energy use, developing policies for reducing carbon emissions, and creating millions of “green” jobs that will ease U.S. reliance on foreign oil.

UN Program Aimed at Bolstering Critical Water Investment in Africa

Estimating that Africa needs US$65 billion in investment over the next 20 years if food production is to keep up with its population boom, the UNs Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) announced its “Blue Revolution,” a new program designed to use Africas largely untapped water reserves to produce more food and energy. The program aims to ensure water supplies in villages for irrigated land.

South African Legislation Aims to Ease Mine Danger

Dangerous mining conditions in South Africa, and the fatalities that can result, have prompted the South African Parliament to consider measures that threaten company executives with prison time for deaths within their mines. Though declining, the rate of mining fatalities in South Africa is greater than in most other countries in the world, and in post-apartheid South Africa, the welfare of miners—nearly all of them black—is a matter of serious concern.

Big U.S. Companies Launch Ethical Standards Group

Seventeen of the largest U.S. companies—including General Electric Company, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., PepsiCo, Inc., UAL Corporation, Dell Inc., and Accenture Ltd—launched the Business Ethics Leadership Alliance in a drive to improve ethical business standards and curb declining political and public perceptions of American corporations.

APEC Summit Concludes with Fresh Commitments for Financial Crisis

Leaders of the 21 nations in the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) group agreed last week at their annual meeting in Lima, Peru, to a 12-month ban on erecting new trade barriers, and they committed to advancing the Doha round of trade negotiations within a month. "We are committed to strengthening the social dimension of globalization and ensuring that all members and all sectors of our economies can access the skills and opportunities to participate in, and benefit from, regional and global trade and investment," the leaders said in a declaration released after the summit. Although the global financial crisis dominated the agenda at the summit, leaders reaffirmed commitments to combat corruption, strengthen corporate responsibility, improve disaster relief management, and address climate change and energy security. APEC leaders also committed to reduce the gap between developed and developing countries and address how the volatility of food prices disproportionately affects the poor; as a result, they pledged to increase technical cooperation to boost agricultural sectors and enhance natural resource management.
