Consequences of Private versus Work Life

It is easy to say that a person’s private life is clearly separated from their work life. But we all know that the line is not so clear-cut, or that the separation is so simple.

Examples abound but imagine the member of staff that must depart from work quickly for a family emergency. The work schedule must change for that person, the people they work with, and the business as a whole.

The activities we all enjoy can also have quite an impact on your job. Sports are not just limited to shuffleboard or dominoes; at the far end of that spectrum is rugby, a notoriously physical and sometimes violent (albeit unintentional) sport. Cricket may be considered genteel but being hit by a cricket ball at 100mph can crush bones. There are many more examples of sports and the injuries one can suffer playing them.

All of these things have an effect in a person’s work life that they may not have intended, or not have considered at the time. Breaking limbs playing sport, or putting up roofing tiles, may mean the loss of a significant portion of the worker’s wages as they go onto statutory sick pay. Their family may suffer especially if there is just one worker in the family.

So even though the bosses may say they don’t want to know what happens in an employee’s life, they still may be concerned, or profer advice and cautionary counsel.

The Independent Blog Article

Just a quick note of our mention in The Independent with a piece titled ‘Blog your way to success‘. The journalist Paul Gosling wrote about blogging and the lack of enthusiasm within small- and medium-sized British businesses to embrace it. As one of the few that has started a blog, and that is continuing to blog, we would like to take this opportunity to thank The Independent and Paul.

Business Travel & Government Endorsed National Transport

Now there’s a title! But seriously this article has come about because a bit of a problem in transporting people from this company to a locale for a job.

Here’s the quandry: three people need to go to a job, for sourcing, for fitting, for whatever reason. The government wants to encourage all of us to use national transport mechanisms (such as ), correct? Well if that’s so, why is it going to be twice as expensive travelling on a train than in a car?

So far, we have calculated that three people on train, return tickets to Manchester, will cost approximately £100 per person. Three people in a car, obviously with a return journey, at 45p/mile, will cost approximately £40 per person.

The government ministers really need to take this into account and do something about it. If you want us to use the national transport grid, we will, providing that it is the cheapest means of getting from point A to point B. Otherwise – what is the point?

Multi-purpose Corporate Sign

Corporate Sign 13

Corporate Sign 13

This corporate sign for Ealing Central Sports Ground is a post fix, with impact-resistant acrylic face with a display.

Other properties of this unique sign may be difficult to see, but it is also a wayfinding sign because of directions in writing, and if you notice, a multi-lingual sign which is important in many areas – GRS has plenty of experience with a variety of languages on signs.

You can clearly see however, that it is a corporate sign because of the logo in the bottom left corner for the Ealing Borough Council.
