  • Help you loose weight

Running is a physical activity that will put your whole muscles into work. By running, you will burn a lot of calories throughout the whole time. The weight that you loss will depend on the intensity of your run, the number of time you will run per week and the length that you will be ready to run. Moreover, it’s important to know that someone you will burn more calories by running at a steady pace than just having a 20-minutes HIIT session.

  • Help for your mental health

Running is a time that you take for yourself only, without having to think about anyone or anything else. You won’t need to think about the stresses of your day-to-day to life. By running, you will be able to clear your mind of any negative thoughts that are filling your head. Moreover, the act of running will release endorphins to your body. Endorphins are neurochemicals known to help reduce anxiety and stress, alleviating depression and boost your self-esteem. Each time you run , alone or with an online running club, your body will release endorphins and you will feel happier and less stressed, thus improving your mental health.

  • Develop new friendships

With the help of an online running club, you will feel more motivated to run in general and you will be able to bound with other people on an activity that you like. Having the same interests help in creating friendship, it’s a great conversation starter and you will be able to get and share tips with other people, thus improving your skills in running. With a running club app, you will feel a connection with other people that will push you give your maximum when you train.

  • One of the cheapest way to work out

With running you technically don’t need anything. You can run anywhere and at anytime you want. You will be the master of your running course. Of course, if you want to improve your running experience, you have the possibility to buy specific connected gears that will give you information about how you run, the number of calories that you are burning, as well as your heartbeat. However, you don’t really need to use it when you are running only for yourself and not as a professional runner.

  • Give you an opportunity to discover new places

When you run you will most likely go from point A to point B or do a roundtrip. This activity gives you an occasion to explore your surroundings while loosing weight and gain more muscles.  Running is your opportunity to see your neighborhood in another point of view. It’s also a great way to visit another country and meet people along the way.

Productive Team https://www.workerstimes.com/productive-team/ Thu, 22 Jul 2021 03:29:20 +0000 https://www.workerstimes.com/?p=34 Just like anyone, you want to optimise and boost your profits. The one element you need is productivity within your team. There are different steps and tasks within which all accumulate to reach the overarching goal of productivity.

The results are all worth it – when you have productivity implemented, you are already prepared to face future challenges. The team are ahead of the game with tasks and can quickly get more done if unexpected tasks arise.

office, business, product-5967479.jpg

This isn’t just important for business owners. You can be in any department and have been in the company for any length of time, but if you put forward beneficial ideas, there’s no doubt you’ll be put in high regards.

Now, let’s dive deeper into just how you can create a productive business.

Encourage communication

As they say, communication is key. Then effective communication takes it to a whole new level. Essentially, it will decrease wait times on retrieving information and as a result, boost productivity. Research released by document management system Docsmart Solutions revealed productivity increases by up to 25 percent when employees are connected through communication.

Ineffective communication will have counterproductive effects, with tasks inevitably taking longer with more back and forth conversation, and more miscommunication.

You can make use of communication platforms best suited to your industry, and instill them as universal workplace communication portals for specific scenarios.

Balance everything.

Too much of anything is bad. And I’m not just referring to negative aspects. For instance, if you allocate only riveting tasks, you can’t move forward. There are always going to be boring tasks, and these need to get done in order to run an efficient workplace. That’s where balance comes into play.

On the other end of the spectrum, an overload of negative types of work will create an unhappy workforce and therefore, a toxic environment. Workers won’t enjoy their work, won’t get as much done and it will be at a lower quality. You will also have a higher turnover rate of workers, causing disruption to the workplace.

Allow easy access to documents

DocSmart Solutions also found 62% of employees find it more difficult to get content they are looking for when working in a different environment to their colleagues.

You can’t simply pop over to your colleague and have them show you where to find a document, which usually takes a matter of minutes. Instead, sending an email while your colleague is in a strenuous task will more than likely result in waiting hours before gaining access.

There is a way to problem-solve this so you don’t face a disaster when you’re short on time or leading up to a deadline. Utilise modern document management platforms. As the name suggests, these tools file documents and allow access so you don’t have to disrupt the workflow to do so. Revolutionary.

Create a positive workplace culture.

If your employees aren’t happy, it will show in the work that’s produced. Think of some of the most successful names – Google and Youtube. The Googleplex Campus takes a fun office to a whole new level. They provide multi-colored bikes for “Googlers” to ride between campus buildings. Interesting art is splashed everywhere, such as a Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton, giant cartoon figures and a sand volleyball court.

Putting in place team-building activities, fun lunches and ensuring workers feel validated will bring in more benefits than you’d think.

On that note, validation is extremely important. When workers put in significant effort, and then don’t feel validated or that their work is appreciated, this gives no incentive for them to repeat their high-quality work.

Allow flexibility when applicable

The notion that flexibility is allowed will bring a sigh of relief to many, taking stress off their plates before they’ve even reached a heavy workload. Whether it be traffic, kids, mental health, or other factors, a lot of the time, workers can’t work their best at the set times – 9-5, and in a set location.

For this reason, introducing flexibility can make use of employees working at their best, without stressing about the lack of sleep from waking up early to skip traffic, or stressing about childcare.

The two recurring outcomes from this analysis is balance and tools. Balance between work and play, balance between flexibility, and the integration of tools to encourage productivity.

Once you’ve integrated processes that enforce productivity, your business will flourish and stand the test of time. Now more than ever, it’s time to adapt and evolve in order to survive business uncertainties.

Business Ethics https://www.workerstimes.com/business-ethics/ https://www.workerstimes.com/business-ethics/#respond Thu, 22 Jul 2021 03:25:10 +0000 https://www.workerstimes.com/?p=31 You are probably wondering how do I choose the best topic for my business ethic research paper? Where do I even start? Well, put your mind to rest and let me help you out.

skyscraper, singapore, sky-3184798.jpg

Well, it is important to know that a good paper has its setting right from the start. In some instances, your lecturer may give you the topic to choose from, but in most cases, they will leave it up to you and that where the work begins. You need to set yourself up properly for your paper right from the beginning. The topic that you choose will also guide you on the material to use for research and describe your confines when it comes to research and articulation of matters.  

When it comes to business ethics, there is just so much you can talk about, but the real question will be, to what extent can you break it down and how relevant is it? What scope are you working with and most importantly how practical is it? Well, our business ethics assignment help service have taken time to research all valid topic on business ethics, and trust me the list was long, but I have cut it down to bring to you the top 10 most interesting business ethics topics.

  1. Decision making and moral principle
  2. Ethical dilemmas at the workplace
  3. Ethical conflicts
  4. Personal integrity and its role in business success
  5. Employee relationships

Don’t mind the interruption, but I had to put this across. there is much more to these topics than meets the eye. Say, when talking of employee relationships, it is just more than how they relate but also what the company’s policies are and how it affects business. It is always advisable to take into consideration a case study, to put things into perspective when handling ethical issues in a business setting. Expressing this in a paper might be quite a challenge to most students who are doing this for the first time, however, expert writers have your back. Get your well done, quality paper and hit the deadlines with ease. When working under pressure, even your best points tend to somehow, vanish. Eliminate the doubt when handing in your paper with the help of experienced business ethics assignment writers.

  1. Insider trading
  2. Bribery and under the table deals
  3. Fiduciary responsibility
  4. Bookkeeping standards
  5. Corporate responsibility

Well, for a bonus round;

  1. Environmental concerns in business
  2. Ethical missteps and their financial effect

When handling business operation, almost every operation presents a loophole that needs a decision to be made and this is where business ethics come into play. In a perfect world, everyone should uphold these standards but every now and then they are overlooked and this causes a business ethical problem.

Before you engage in this paper, you need to understand what are business ethics? And what is the ethical code of conduct in business? These will give you the basis you need for research and compilation. Always have clarity on your topic before engaging in it. Choose a topic that interests you as well, this will motivate you to work your way through it. You can check out these Tips on Business Ethics Research Paper, to understand the dos and don’ts of a business ethics project.

Internet Marketing https://www.workerstimes.com/internet-marketing/ https://www.workerstimes.com/internet-marketing/#respond Thu, 22 Jul 2021 03:13:49 +0000 https://www.workerstimes.com/?p=28 Privacy has been a big topic of conversation online, and I’ve been seeing more of it recently especially on Linkedin.

social, social media, communication-3064515.jpg

Take this random popular post, for instance, which is an analogy to big tech and how they use our data:

———-

Imagine inviting a business partner for dinner in your home. During the entire dinner, they constantly try to sell you their products or services. More so, whenever you aren’t looking, they’re taking pictures of every corner of your home, sneaking into your bedroom and combing through your drawers and personal belongings. If and when you confront them, they tell you that it’s your responsibility to *opt out* of such conduct. After all, they were just trying to get to know you as well as possible, to calibrate their offerings to you. In fact, they may even justify their conduct as appropriate because YOU did not proactively opt out of it. And, naturally, they would be firm on having the right to sell all the information they collected to whoever was willing to pay for it. Why not, right?

You’d likely kick them out of your house, and probably it wouldn’t stop there.

So why allow companies to do exactly that online?

———-

Why allow companies to do such things?

Simply because you allowed them to. As soon as you click that “register” button on Linkedin, Facebook, Twitter, or Google, you’ve agreed to their terms and conditions and privacy policy whether you read it or not.

In other words, they wouldn’t justify their conduct as appropriate just because you didn’t proactively opt out, it’s also that you’ve given your consent to let big tech do what they want with your data in the first place.

So in my eyes, there’s a big hole in his argument.

But there is good news.

It’s not like you don’t have control over your privacy. There are a couple of things that I’ve done to give myself a bit more control:

1. Going to my account settings and adjusting the privacy configurations (I’m not sure if many people are even aware that they’re able to do so).

2. Using browser extensions to block trackers, ads, and third party cookies.

3. Finding alternative services that take data privacy more seriously. For example, I’m in the process of switching from Gmail over to Protonmail. It’ll take a while to completely migrate since I have a lot of files stored in Google Drive, but it’ll get done eventually.

And then the post goes on:

———-

Businesses with the greatest ability to access and engage people (their employees, customers, and the public) will win in the digital age and have a bright future ahead of them. It’s those companies we entrust with our data, money and attention. It’s those brands I would gladly advocate for and spread the word about.

It’s so much easier to advertise, sell and run a business well when your target audience is willing to pay attention. Build trust with them, and they will build trust with you. Stop fighting and antagonising, starting putting people first.

It’s the best strategy for the short and the long term, and besides, it’s also the right thing to do.

———-

Indeed, it is the right thing to do.

And there are multiple solutions to getting your target audience to pay attention and build trust with you.

Social media, podcasting, webinars, public speaking, or all of the above.

But by far my favorite:

Emailing

Specifically by using my methods I teach in How to Become an Email Titan.

Improving your work ethic https://www.workerstimes.com/improving-your-work-ethic/ Thu, 22 Jul 2021 03:10:29 +0000 https://www.workerstimes.com/?p=25 5 Tips for improving your work ethic We’ve all been there. That feeling of really, really not wanting to go into the office of a morning. It cripples productivity, raises stress levels, and makes us unhappy within ourselves and the people, we work with

So Why do we do it The feeling of not wanting to go to work is often the result of a poor work ethic. If you’ve experienced it now or in the past, that doesn’t make you a bad person or poor employee – a poor work ethic usually arrives subconsciously and is something you’ll have little control over or forewarning of its impending arrival.

Thankfully, there are some simple tips and methods you can employ right now to improve your work ethic fast, and they’re not quite as tricky as you might think.

To help you get out of that rut and back, fighting fit for a productive time in the office, we’ve decided to list our top tips for improving your work ethic starting today.

1. Look at your body – and treat it right A healthy body, produces a healthy mind that will help you build a better approach to work because the two are intrinsically linked.

If you feel lazy in the morning, the last thing you’re going to want to do is to spring out of bed and head to the office. You’re far more likely to lay in and hit the ‘snooze’ button and curse the fact you even have a job in the first place.

Lethargy can be a result of not enough sleep and poor levels of exercise, therefore if the feeling just described is something you’re all too familiar with, it’s time to go on something of a permanent health kick, start off with a simple walk, better-eating habits.

Start to walk instead of taking a lazy drive down to the corner shop, walk when you’d normally take the car, and swap those regular junk treats for fruit and glasses of water – you’ll be surprised how much more up for it you’ll feel each morning.

2. Chuck the poor distractions How many times do you check your email each day? What about social media? Is your Facebook feed something you access every five minutes to check in on what your friends and family are up to?

We live in a world full of distractions. Junk TV, junk news, junk newspapers, multiple forms of content, relentless notifications and devices capable of connecting us immediately to the Internet are everywhere and it seems impossible to drag yourself away from, it becomes an addiction you don’t really need, get rid of it or at least cut-down.

Check your email only two or three times a day, turn off notifications and leave social media for the moments when you’re sat on the sofa with nothing better to do.

3. Be dependable If you promise to complete a task or project – do so. Get it done on time (or before, if possible), and pat yourself on the back, get yourself a small reward, and if you feel things are slipping, be honest with those for whom you promised completion date.

Being dependable at work will earn you respect and increase your levels of satisfaction considerably. If people know they can rely on you to get the job done, you’ll be rewarded with their gratitude, and there are few things that can push you on to achieve more than a heartfelt “thank you”.

4. Your timeclock, your flexible day Working a strict nine-to-five isn’t for everyone, the working world has changed and so has the usual stiff 9-5, if you find yourself regularly flagging at 3 PM, or uninspired until mid-morning, you’ll probably benefit from working a more flexible day, only you will know what hours suit you.

This, of course, depends on whether or not your employer will allow flexible working, but if they do (or if you’re the boss), being a little more dynamic with the hours you work will help you raise productivity levels and increase your desire to get the job done.

The ongoing advances in web-based technology have made this form of working easier and more possible than ever before with the ability to work when you feel most inspired and stop when you can’t see the wood for the trees is liberating.

5. Don’t let mistakes ruin your progress You’ll slip up – probably daily. We all do. However, the people with the best work ethics are capable of picking themselves up swiftly after their mistakes, learning from them, and moving on.

Don’t beat yourself up, If you allow mistakes to ruin your progress at work by occupying every thought, your desire to get the job done will quickly evaporate, your day will just get worse

Great things will happen if you embrace failure.we learn from it, and move on, no one has ever achieved greatness without slipping up at multiple stages along the way, and you’re no different.

We’re imperfect, but that’s what makes us brilliant, we learn and grow, that’s development.

Wrapping things up Unless you’re particularly spritely in the morning, like most people, it’s unlikely that you’ll literally jump out of bed and head to work full of an endless supply of energy, but if you follow our tips above, you’ll greatly increase your ability to foster a healthy approach to work and become a better worker all round

Whenever you feel uninspired by your role, but you know it’s something more superficial than job dissatisfaction, check that you’re doing all you can to improve your work ethic. As we’ve demonstrated today, it really isn’t that difficult at all.

GST Tax reduction https://www.workerstimes.com/gst-tax-reduction/ Thu, 22 Jul 2021 02:26:11 +0000 https://www.workerstimes.com/?p=15 calculator, calculation, insurance-385506.jpg

GST Tax reduction was very necessary for the fields of milling, pharmaceutics, education, and the food industry. The government, we know, has announced a number of reliefs to taxpayers. These include programs for amnesty, midday meals, lower tax rates for COVID drugs, equipment kinds, and a range of others.

These reliefs seem to provide taxpayers comfort and optimism in the face of Covid-19’s severe second wave.

We will thus learn about GST tax relief in the fields of milling, pharmaceutical, educational, and food products in this post.

GST Tax relief in Milling Industry It has been made clear by the GST Council that no GST would be payable to a government by any individual for the purpose is to distribute that wheat flour to the public distribution system.

However, if the composite value of service exceeds 25 percent in milling of wheat into flour or paddy into rice will attract only a GST Tax rate of only 5%.

The impact on GST Registration companies would certainly be favorable. Under this clarification, taxpayers can now claim the tax benefit. In addition, taxpayers can request refunds on the basis of excess tax calculations.

GST Tax Relief in Education Sector It would be reasonable to remark in the context of the Covid-19 issue that citizens of the country look forward to the allowances and advances beyond the deadlines only. In the present scenario, the middle class of the country sustained considerable losses.

Millions of people would benefit from CBIC’s strong drive to give clarifications pertaining to the exemption of GST from different Central and State Board’s services, such as the National Review Board (NBE).

CBIC said that in conducting examinations for students, including admission examinations, it would not be charging GST on services supplied by central or state boards like NBE.

Furthermore, GST Tax relaxation is given to such boards for input services. For instance, admission or examination, such as online testing, published results, admitted cards, questions, etc. Hence, The decision will benefit millions of students plus it will further rationalize the cost of educational institutions. The benefit of which can be passed on to the households.

Important updates for EPF (Employees Provident Fund) subscribers about pandemic relief. These new modifications must be noted by taxpayers and those who have EPF Registration. The most recent EPFO changes add a second Covid-19 advance to a non-refundable EPF advance. These updates are critical for anybody since they can aid in the fight against Covid-19 and other financial issues.

This post will discuss 5 Important Updates for Employee Provident Fund Subscribers.

5 Important updates for employees provident fund subscribers In the midst of the covid-19 crisis, the government has issued a number of updates to assist residents in India. For example, various tax breaks and GST exemptions on COVID-19 supply.

Similarly, fresh statements have been made by the Employees Provident Fund Organization (EPFO). These statements are positive and provide significant relief to employees who have EPF registration. Let’s take a closer look at each of them.

Non-refundable advance – Important updates for employees provident fund subscribers EPFO members who have been out of work for one month or more may withdraw up to 75 percent of their PF balance, according to the latest update. EPFO offers this service to EPF depositors without closing their accounts, allowing EPFO members to continue collecting pensions and benefits under EPF pension laws.

Second-CoronaVirus Advance Second, we have a significant update on EPFO withdrawal. According to the EPFO, an EPF account holder who drew a Covid advance during the first wave is now eligible for a second Covid advance from his or her PF account.

However, an EPF account holder will only be entitled to withdraw up to 75 percent of his or her EPF balance, or three months’ basic pay + Dearness Allowance, under this EPFO relief (DA).

COVID Advance after leaving the job On the third number of Important updates for employees provident fund subscribers, we have COVID Advance after leaving the job. An EPFO member is now eligible for a Covid advance from his or her EPF account even if he or she has left his or her employment.
