JI Employee Engagement Index


Chattanooga, TN (PRWEB) November 18, 2011

Judgment Index USA, a Chattanooga, Tennessee based consulting & marketing company has released its new Employee Engagement Index. Its Judgment Index™ (JI) assessment tool is commonly used in employment screening and selection, workforce retention, safety & risk management, wellness implications and return to work aspects for the impaired, disabled or “stuck” employees. Another valuable component of JI Platform is the Judgment Coach, a series of streaming coaching videos four to five minutes in length that further drive the development aspect of improving judgment. The JI and the work of Dr. Steve Byrum, President, Judgment Index USA, are benefiting a large number of organizations globally. The company currently has operations in the USA, UK, Germany, Netherlands and coming to Australia soon.

“Unlike other Engagement Reports, the Judgment Index Employee Engagement Index measures areas that are deemed the real reasons someone stays or leaves their employment (behavior & attitude toward work), things other assessments don’t measure,” stated Bill Wilson, CEO.

The purpose of this report is to assess the degree of engagement reflected in a person’s values and its parallel judgments. Engagement is examined in four primary dimensions and twelve categories of insight. By using this report, it is possible to be more highly predictive about a potential employee’s degree of engagement. In addition, by using the report to better understand present employees, it will become clearer how it is possible to develop and improve the potential for higher levels of engagement.

In Jim Collins’s book Good to Great, he emphasizes the importance of having the right people in the right seat on the right bus. Arguably, the most critical seat is held by the bus driver who must guide the bus in the appropriate direction and makes sure it arrives on schedule. To be successful, the driver must be completely engaged in his work while handling distractions along the way. Like the bus driver, Key Leaders of any organization must be engaged, must have a bus (platform/product/ideas/mission), must be certain the right people are in the right seats (engaged employees/job fit for best performance) and must know where they are going (business direction/master plan, goals & targets.)

Engagement as defined by Judgment Index USA is the emotional attachment an individual feels towards an organization. It is a critical factor in determining the discretionary effort, loyalty, morale, motivation and ultimate performance of an employee.

The roadblocks, potholes, and detours experienced by drivers and business leaders are common concerns to every industry.


    Turnover / Attrition Rate
    Cost of a bad hire / Replacement Cost
    Absenteeism
    Shrinkage
    Safety / Accident Reports
    Compliance Related Concerns
    Issues Related to “Poor Judgment”

Engaged employees help “shrink” these events, disengaged employees help “create” them.

The Judgment Index Employee Engagement Index (EEI) provides:

    Provides key information to an employer about the level of engagement of their employees.
    Shows what your employees need to do to become more engaged.
    Shows if a person has the judgment capacity to meet the judgment demands for effective engagement.
    Pinpoints specific aspects of judgment directly related to the above list of concerns for each employee.

High Level Results that we are seeing:

    In general, 31% of employees are Actively Engaged and 19% are Actively Disengaged.
    Engaged employees plan to stay for what they give; disengaged employees stay for what they can get.
    Identification of ways you can effectively communicate to your employee audience.

An Economic Assessment of Proposed Cigarette Excise Tax Hikes in the State of West Virginia

An Economic Assessment of Proposed Cigarette Excise Tax Hikes in the State of West Virginia

Diplomarbeit, die am 08.10.2002 erfolgreich an einer Technische Universität in Deutschland im Fachbereich Wirtschaftswissenschaften eingereicht wurde. Abstract: Many states in the U.S., including West Virginia, are recently contemplating increasing the state cigarette excise tax rate in order to alleviate their tense budgetary situation. Two groups have dominated the political process of cigarette tax legislation. The health community contents that smokers impose costs on the society by excessively using the health care system and damaging the health of non-smokers through second hand smoke. Also, youth are unaware of the full risks of smoking and therefore unable to make fully informed decisions. Therefore, the health community demands higher cigarette taxes to deter youth smoking and make smokers bear the costs they impose on the public. The tobacco industry, lobbying for low cigarette taxes, argues that the current cigarette tax is sufficient to compensate for the excess health care costs of smokers. Higher taxes are also said to disturb the free market mechanism by depriving consumers of making free consumption decisions. Most importantly, rising tax differentials between states would lead to a large smuggling problem. In fact, West Virginia’s border states Kentucky and Virginia and nearby North Carolina levy the lowest cigarette excise tax rates in the nation, currently being 3, 2.5, and 5 cents per pack, respectively. A tax hike on top of West Virginia’s current 17 cents per pack may promote tax evasion and thus counteract the fund-raising efforts of the West Virginia State Government. This study carefully examines the economic validity of both lobby groups’ arguments and aids the legislative decision making process by providing a scientific framework for the appropriate taxation of cigarettes in West Virginia. Part I determines the efficient cigarette excise tax rate based on economic efficiency theory.
