Book Description

The Force and Support Costing (FSC) System is a set of models and databases that help analysts project the cost implications of proposed changes in the defense forces, infrastructure, and assets. The user interface and many of the models are implemented in Excel; most of the database resides on a network. The illustrated study projects effects on defense costs arising from the deactivation of an Army division. The FSC system allows the user to view the force structure in the current Army program, select the division to be cut, and specify when the deactivation will occur. In addition to stepping throught the specific procedures for the simulation, the authors show other ways FSC System can be used to analyze the cost effects of various policy actions.

A valuable resource for gay employees and their bosses........1996-05-30

Research shows that organizations committed to a diverse workforce experience better customer satisfaction, profitability and competitiveness. This book describes strategies for creating a productive, creative, inclusive organization (like those described in "The 100 Best Places for Gay Men and Lesbians"). It focuses on four areas: non-discrimination policies that include sexual orientation; domestic partnership benefits; employee education about sexual orientation, and AIDS education. The authors point out that while employers can't control employee beliefs about gays and lesbians, they can control employee workplace behavior toward gay and lesbian coworkers. A important resource for managers, and for gay men and lesbians who want to nudge their employers in the right direction
