Employment Essentials

Employment Essentials We are going to take a look at employment, we will define what employment is, we will look at occupation industries and we will overview employment different roles in the employment field.

Employment is basically an agreement between employer and employee. Employers agree to compensate employees for their work done and employees agree to follow employer’s directions during work hours in exchange for employer`s compensation. Employment can refer to process or result of that exchange.

When you take a look at the picture under employment overview, on the left it`s simply an employee giving an employer their performance. They follow directions during work hours. Directions should be legal and ethical. Because when a direction is not legal an employee can decline the directions given. An employer is compensating an employee for performance and this is a willful agreement. This means that both employee and employer agree on the same cause. If either the employee or employer is not happy with the other and want to cancel the contract, there should be following of a procedure on how to terminate the contract.

Employers are hiring for certain occupations and certain industries. Occupation is the regular activity that the person undertakes in order to earn his/her livelihood. For instance, a teacher or a driver or a construction worker or a manager is an occupation. An industry is any part of economy, a group of enterprises that create a particular type of products, for example car industries produces cars, computer I.T industry produces software, computer industries produces computers. Looking at employment roles, the first employment role is an employee who is any individual employed by the employer for some compensation. Most likely this includes wages or a salary though neither wages nor salary is the only compensation. Employers often offer different benefits, incentives etc.

Moving on to independent contractor. This is an individual or another legal entity that provides goods and services to their client under terms specified within a contract or within a verbal agreement. On the lower picture under employment, on the left there is a contractor and contractor provides the contract client with their requested products and on the right is contract client who has compensated the contractor for the requested products. The difference between these two pictures, employee is working. An employer employs an employee as a manager through some representatives says what they expect employees to do. In contracting, a contract client says contracts are what he or she wants to get out of the process. Another comparison is on the table displayed, with regard to work hours, employers set work hours for employees and independent contractors define their work hours on themselves. Employer defines work processing methods for employees and contractors are responsible for that when he/she in an independent contractor. In equipment, in the employment it`s usually provided by the employer and in contracting the contractor is always responsible for their equipment and training. Taxes and compliance, employers take care of those in employment. In contracting, independent contractors basically they are self-employed, they work for themselves that is why they are responsible for this. In revenue, employee has one employer and the price is stated when the contract was made. Independent contractors can work for several clients and the price can be negotiated. It can be higher or lower.

So who is self-employed? Independent contractors are basically self-employed but self-employed could also be owners of a company. In the case where someone cannot work as an employee yet but employer needs them to work, in this case the concept of apprentice is coming in. So apprentice basically is an employee but this employee is not paid the full amount or compensation which a fully skilled worker would expect to get. Apprentice pay increases as his/her skills and abilities increase. When an apprentice can work as a full employee, he/she gets the full compensation.

The last role is volunteer, a volunteer is a person who does something especially help other people willfully and without being forced but the same time he/she is not paid to do that. In America it`s illegal for a profit company hire someone and not pay so volunteering in the United States exists only not for profit companies. We have looked at employment and employment roles and we are ready to go to occupations.

Overview

Friends Of CNM Communities is a network of CNM Friends grouped by either their industries or their occupations. Take a look at the picture under Friends Communities. On the top in brown is the industries councils and here communities are grouped on the industry such as communications or law or recycling or retail and at the bottom is a professional committees and in these committees members are grouped based on their occupations. So, it could be project managers or doctors, nurses, construction workers or air traffic controllers and so on. The direction of what is on the top or what is in the bottom can be any, they are chosen sporadically because Friends of CNM Structure is organic, it can play in any way or any role. In industry councils you find that one particular community is very different, it`s called community board. The community board groups members on the basis of their particular industry and these industry is called work force services, and so basically this is what Friends of CNM are supposed to do. That is why this particular board oversees WorldOpp Team which oversees what Friends of CNM intended or what they intend to do. Any friend can initiate a new community, once again the structure is very flexible. Particularly WorldOpp Team, it takes care of CNM Digital.
