  • Killer UX Design Preface
    Killer UX Design About Jodie Moule Jodie Moule is co-founder and director of Symplicit, an experience design consultancy based in Australia that focuses on research, strategy, and design services. With a background in psychology, her understanding of human behavior is central to helping businesses see their brands through the eyes of customers, influencing the way they approach the design of their products, systems, and processes. About SitePoint SitePoint specializes in publishing practical, rewarding, and approachable content for web professionals. Visit http://www.sitepoint.com/ to access our books, blogs, newsletters, videos, and community forums. Preface When I embarked on my career as a psychologist, I never imagined I’d end up designing technology products and services. Funny where you end up in life, and lucky for me all those years at university weren’t wasted: the business of understanding humans and the way they behave is critical to designing. With the digital and physical worlds merging more than ever before, it is vital to understand how technology can enhance the human experience, and not cause frustration or angst at every touchpoint. To create technology that seamlessly fits into our daily lives, there’s a simple formula. First, consider the person attached to your technology solution and the context in which they’ll be using your creation; then, design your solution and involve users in the process to refine your thinking. Today, technology is used to change attitudes and behavior, creating amazing challenges for designers. And if we want to create products and services that have the power to educate people so that they may live better lives, or help to reduce the time people take to do certain tasks—or even attract them to our products instead of our competitors—we need to first understand what makes them tick.

  • Upcoming Album by the Cousins, Including a March 17Th Release and Full Track Listing
    I’m having a rather ‘One and Only’ Valentine’s Day evening as I write this editorial but at least I had Jim and Kevin bring me a little ‘Sunshine’ fresh from the studio earlier; new tunes beat roses any day. The serpentine return of The Cousins from the mists of time has also got me thinking lately about another obscure, old family band who haven’t put out an album since 2004 called the Brothers Creeggan. We can live in hope... - Mil NEWS The Ladies have been in the studio all month working on new music! We’ve seen 14 new songs listed so far. Check ‘Features’ on page 3 for the full details. More dates and three shows with The Persuasions have been announced. More details and dates on pages 2 & 4. New details about Rattlesnake Love, the upcoming album by The Cousins, including a March 17th release and full track listing. All the details below. (Apologies for the incorrect date/single last issue. That was the info we had at the time of publication) BUpcoming The Cousins Are Ready to Rattle! Kevin and real-life cousin Harland Williams are set to release Rattlesnake Love into the world on March 17th. 11 songs have slithered their way out of The Purple Pineapple Studios with a sound described as ‘a mixture of the sensual, the occult, the poppy, the rocky.’ With enough interest the duo might do a live show so hit their site, subscribe to their mailing list and order Rattlesnake Love soon!

  • 1.3 Recent Board & Department of Labor Activity on Union Organizing
    ABOUT THE AUTHORS Michael G. Pedhirney is a shareholder in the San Francisco office of Littler Mendelson, P.C., the largest U.S.-based law firm exclusively devoted to representing management in labor and employment law. Michael focuses on the representation of management in a broad range of labor and employment law matters, particularly collective bargaining and matters before the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). In addition to appearing in state and federal courts and before the NLRB, Michael also represents employers in collective bargaining and handles arbitrations and mediations. Karen A. Sundermier, in her current role as a Knowledge Management Counsel for Littler, helped design Littler LaborSmart™, an interactive, online tool that allows in-house legal and labor relations professionals to access all of their company’s collective bargaining agreements in a structured, searchable database. The tool allows companies to swiftly identify and compare language for contract administration, grievance, and negotiation purposes. Prior to turning her focus to offering strategic and innovative legal service solutions, Karen represented employers in a broad spectrum of employment and labor matters and assisted employers with representation elections and collective bargaining as a Littler associate and in- house employment counsel. She currently serves as an editor for Littler’s publications on labor relations topics. © 2018 LITTLER MENDELSON, P.C. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. i COVERAGE Scope of Discussion. This publication explains union election procedures and the NLRB’s role in overseeing elections. It also explores NLRB precedent on objectionable conduct by different parties that may result in election results being overturned. Also included is information concerning actions employers are permitted to take and are prohibited from taking in advance of and in response to union organizing drives.

  • The Social and Economic Costs of Illegal Misclassification, Wage Theft and Tax Fraud in Residential Construction in Massachusetts
    WORKING PAPER SERIES WORKING PAPER LABOR CENTER The Social and Economic Costs of Illegal Misclassification, Wage Theft and Tax Fraud in Residential Construction in Massachusetts Tom Juravich Professor, Labor Studies and Sociology University of Massachusetts Amherst [email protected] Russell Ormiston Associate Professor, Department of Economics, Allegheny College President, Institute for Construction Economic Research [email protected] Dale Belman Professor, School of Human Resources and Labor Relations, Michigan State University Institute for Construction Economic Research [email protected] June 28, 2021 The Social and Economic Costs of Illegal Misclassification, Wage Theft and Tax Fraud in Residential Construction in Massachusetts Tom Juravich Russell Ormiston Dale Belman Executive Summary This study examines labor and employment practices in the residential construction in- dustry in Massachusetts. Our research is based on more than 60 in-depth interviews with documented and undocumented workers, union and non-union contractors, union and public officials, and community activists involved in residential construction. The results of these interviews are complemented by a comprehensive quantitative analysis of data from the Massachusetts Department of Revenue, Department of Unemployment Assistance and Department of Industrial Accidents that provides statistical projections of the extent and economic costs of worker misclassification in Massachusetts construction. Based on our extensive interviews, we have identified a new and fully institution- alized business model operating in residential construction across the Common- wealth. Practices such as the illegal misclassification of workers as independent contractors, wage theft and tax fraud, and paying workers in cash that were once at the margins of the construction industry, are now at the center of medium and large residential construction in Massachusetts.
