Insight Ranks Among Top LGBTQ-Friendly Employers on 2021 Corporate Equality Index

Insight Enterprises (NASDAQ:NSIT), the global integrator of Insight Intelligent Technology Solutions™ for organizations of all sizes, has received a score of 95 out of 100 on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s 2021 Corporate Equality Index (CEI), the nation’s foremost benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ workplace equity.

Insight continues to make strides in championing LGBTQ teammates, having increased its score this year from its CEI rating of 70 in 2020 and 60 in 2019. The company joins the ranks of 1,142 major U.S. businesses with 500 full-time employees and above that were assessed in the 2021 index.

“Our progress in HRC’s Corporate Equality Index reinforces that Insight is a place where anyone is welcome, and we’re intent on growing a truly diverse and inclusive culture,” said Jen Vasin, senior vice president of human resources, Insight. “It is our diverse workforce that is responsible for bringing fresh perspectives and different points of view to inspire creativity and better outcomes across our business.”

The CEI assessment rates employers on their ability to provide crucial protections for the more than 18 million U.S. workers and an additional 17 million workers outside of the United States who identify as LGBTQ. Ratings are based on detailed criteria falling under four central pillars:

  • Non-discrimination policies across business entities;
  • Equitable benefits for LGBTQ workers and their families;
  • Supporting an inclusive culture; and
  • Corporate social responsibility

Insight supports its teammate resource groups, which are teammate-led volunteer groups that have attracted more than 1,200 active members and provide a greater voice for cultures and communities that have traditionally faced challenges in the workplace. The Insight Stands Out group, with more than 200 members, champions a highly visible and inclusive environment for LGBTQ teammates, families and allies.

In 2020, Insight Stands Out served as an advocate reviewing company communication on self-identification, reinstating domestic partner benefits, and advising company guidelines on matters like restroom inclusivity and the dress-code policy. The group additionally partnered with Insight’s HR team to update the company anti-discrimination policy to include gender identity and created an educational resource library for teammates.

“Everyone wants to feel like they can be their authentic selves at work, and I’ve personally seen the toll it takes on people’s lives when it’s discouraged in the workplace. I’m proud to work in a friendly environment at Insight where we can be ourselves and where everyone has a voice, and I feel as though we are making meaningful changes for this company, for the people who work here and for their families,” said Deb Murphy, a senior manager for Insight’s global project management office and an Insight Stands Out co-founder.

As a member of the UN Global Compact and the Responsible Business Alliance, Insight maintains a diverse supplier program to encourage partnerships with businesses owned by minorities, women, veterans, LGBTQ+ and people with disabilities.

“From the previously unimaginable impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, to a long overdue reckoning with racial injustice, 2020 was an unprecedented year. Yet, many businesses across the nation stepped up and continued to prioritize and champion LGBTQ equality,” said Alphonso David, Human Rights Campaign President. “This year has shown us that tools like the CEI are crucial in the work to increase equity and inclusion in the workplace, but also that companies must breathe life into these policies and practices in real and tangible ways. Thank you to the companies that understand protecting their LGBTQ employees and consumers from discrimination is not just the right thing to do — but the best business decision.”

Smart Farm Solution Company Firmmit Proves Technological Power with Firmmit Strawberry Container Made by Growth Manual from 127 Leading Farms

The government announced smart farm fostering policy and support methods last month, suggesting rural areas as a key space for the Korean New Deal, and the smart farm system from the smart farm solution company Firmmit is drawing attention.

The government announced smart farm fostering policy and support methods last month, suggesting rural areas as a key space for the Korean New Deal, and the smart farm system from the smart farm solution company Firmmit is drawing attention.

Firmmit’s strawberry container farm is a solution that can grow high-quality Korean strawberries in Southeast Asia by applying optimal strawberry growing conditions. Based on the data from 127 leading farmers, the optimal growth manual has been secured, and delicious Korean strawberries can be produced by using the exact amount of light in Jeolla-do created by flexible LED.

The company staff said, “The nutrient solution that supplies nutrients is a micro nutrient solution, which is reduced to 1/20 of the general nutrient solution, and by using a rail-type multistage bed, the yield has been increased to 24 times compared to facility cultivation. Anyone can easily grow crops if they use our growth manual.”

He then said, “Since the company was established in October 2017, its sales was 130 million won in 2018, 1.87 billion won in 2019, and 4 billion won in 2020. The sales target for 2021 is 6.7 billion won, and the contribution to sales from container strawberry solution and hydroponic cultivators for home is expected to increase. In October 2020, the company was selected for the TIPS program with 100 million won worth of seed investments and we are going to hold the next investment round in the first half of this year.”

Regarding the future plans, he said, “Firmmit’s Strawberry Container is targeting 30 branches in 15 countries around the world by 2025 starting with the entry into the Southeast Asian market. As the number of branches increases, it forms a sales structure in which the profit rate increases due to the license profit. We selected strawberries among several crops because they require advanced cultivation techniques. If the strawberry container solution goes into the market, we can expect to expand to other crops.”

CONTACT LENSES MARKET SIZE TO CROSS USD 12 BILLION 2025 – ARIZTON

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

The COVID-19 pandemic will cause cultural, political, and social changes that are not seen in decades. Its effect has already been experienced by the big sectors, from finance to airlines. The pandemic will lead to several casualties and negatively impact many businesses worldwide. Further, in order to prevent the spread of the virus, many countries implemented lockdowns, quarantines for the patients, and stopped movement between countries. The pandemic is increasing at an alarming rate and is anticipated to impact the day-to-day activities, including contact lenses wear and practice. The supply chain of both finished goods and raw materials within the medical device industry was adversely impacted in the first half of 2020.

In addition, the usage pattern of contact lens wearers also slightly changed due to the increase in work from home options for many employees across the world. Further, the usage has changed from daily wear to occasional wear in a selected group of wearers. However, there is currently no evidence to suggest that there is an increased risk of infection or contracting coronavirus through contact lens wear. Multiple studies were conducted to study the behavior of people using contact lenses. These studies indicated certain insights about the patient’s behavior. The majority of the people using soft contact lenses due to their comfort didn’t like wearing spectacles. This, in turn, made them shift towards contact lenses.

Digital media, transparency and the war against corruption

Digital media, transparency and the war against corruption and in developing countries

Corruption is highly damaging to economic and social life through misappropriation of public funds, restriction of open market activity, favouritism towards families of those in power and the many detrimental effects of rent-seeking.

The economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on developing countries brings the prospect of reduced national revenues unless and until these countries can address their corruption challenges.

In this piece David Fellows and John Leonardo review evidence for the power of transparency to reduce corruption and improve economic performance. They then consider the increasing relevance of digital media, particularly social media, to the transparency agenda and how its application can be encouraged.

Social media is fast becoming an important form of popular communication throughout the developing world. Governments can use social media to seek public support for anti-corruption activities, including reporting corrupt practices, complaining about unfair decisions and observing the accumulation of unexplained wealth by politicians and officials.

Such engagement is, however, dependent on the demonstration of government integrity, the recognition of public priorities and the provision of basic information on services and funding made available to local communities.

The international development community can encourage governments to uphold press freedom, protect whistle-blowers and use social media as part of the transparency process, and scale up its support to countries that are pursuing effective anti-corruption policies.

ComPac Announces – Energy Saving Strategy

Energy Savings – The Three-Phase vs Single-Phase Pump Motors

When selecting a pump motor, it is vital to consider not only the upfront cost of the equipment but also the long-term operating expenses. Single-phase pump motors may have a lower initial price tag, but the energy savings of a three-phase pump motor will generally begin to yield a return on your investment within a year.

Three-phase motors are known for their reliability and long operating life (https://www.thomasnet.com/articles/machinery-tools-supplies/what-is-a-3-phase-motor-and-how-does-it-work/), extending the pump replacement interval. They use up to 90% less power (https://www.poolspanews.com/facilities/maintenance/upping-efficiency_o) to do the same work as a single-phase motor. In the long run, the life cycle cost difference (https://com-pac.net/pump-efficiencies-and-the-effect-on-roi/) between three-phase and single-phase motors could save your organization thousands of dollars.

Cpi C 652×771

Three-phase pump motors are more efficient in general than single-phase motors. Pound for pound, they use less energy at the same load, partly because they create less friction and partly because they can turn over the same amount of water at a lower pump speed. Fewer revolutions per minute translate to reduced energy usage whenever the pump is running. However, the bulk of the energy savings from three-phase motors comes from soft start afforded by their variable frequency drive (https://com-pac.net/com-pac-accupump-systems-variable-fre…) (VFD) control system.

Advantages of Soft Start Technology

Single-phase motors have a “hard start”, requiring a considerable in-rush of power to overcome inertia, up to 5 or 6 times the current required for normal operation. This has a significant impact on the efficacy of the piping system and components and your organization’s power bill.

Energy companies add a demand charge to the power bills of industrial and commercial facilities. This surcharge is based on the peak demand of your business, as the energy company must generate the capability to provide you with the maximum power you may need at any given time.

If they are accounting for enough energy to be able to power a hard start at any moment, the bill might be rather steep. In some instances, the demand charge outstrips the cost of actual energy expenditure.

A VFD control system eliminates this problem by facilitating a gradual “soft start,” which requires only around 1.5 times the normal operating current. The energy effectiveness of a soft start means a much smaller demand charge on your power bill every month.

Reduction in Maintenance Expenses

The lower start-up current needed for a soft start also means less wear and tear on the pump, piping, and components, further reducing operating costs by decreasing the maintenance and repair requirements (https://www.energy.gov/sites/prod/files/2014/05/f16/pump.pdf) for the entire system. The lower pump speed and reduced friction of three-phase motors also produce less stress and cooler temperatures for other components.

Additionally, three-phase motors produce less vibration in the system than single-phase motors, reducing the stress on pipes and their supports. Three-phase power provides a smoother, more balanced motor operation.

Excess vibration from single-phase motors can loosen joints and cause cracks in welds. Some of the vibration is a result of an excess of fluid energy that builds up when the flow rate of a single-phase motor far outpaces the need of the system. A VFD control system solves this problem, decreasing the need for repairs and replacement parts.

Efficiency and Flexibility of VFD Control Systems

With single-phase, pumps, sizing the pump to the specific application is absolutely critical for efficiency. This almost never happens perfectly, especially in the pool industry. A single-phase pump is usually a little oversized for the actual hydraulic conditions on-site, so the operator must produce artificial backpressure by valving down to get the desired flow rate. You are then constantly using max horsepower and simulating the need for that power by causing more total dynamic head in the system.

With a VFD control system, you can reduce energy use to match your need. Our three-phase pumps are designed to always use the least amount of horsepower to maintain the system design flow rate. This translates into ongoing energy savings and a reduced load on the pump, leading to longer pump life and lower maintenance requirements.

On top of this, VFD controls give you options not available with single-phase pumps. For instance, if you have a three-phase filter pump in a commercial pool, you can slow the pump down to a minimum speed at night to reduce your energy usage even more. The VFD control system is programmable, so you can set a schedule for the pump that optimizes energy savings and is ideally suited to the operating hours and particular needs of your organization.

Additional Considerations

Except for a few specialty pumps, single-phase motors will soon be eliminated from the pool industry. The energy sector is increasingly requiring variable-speed pumps because soft starts are so much better for the electrical grid. They are also requiring more efficient motors, leading to a radical decline in the production of single-phase motors above 3 hp.

The cost of single-phase pump motors has therefore almost tripled, shrinking the amount of additional investment required to upgrade to a three-phase motor. Check with your local energy company. Your organization may be able to recoup some of its investment with a utility rebate if you choose a three-phase, variable-speed pump.

To Learn More

Our VFD-controlled three-phase pump motors minimize system maintenance requirements and maximize energy efficiency. For more information about the energy savings afforded by three-phase pumps, contact Com-Pac Filtration of Jacksonville, Florida. With over 100 years of combined industry experience, the professionals at Com-Pac would be happy to answer your questions and help you select the pump that will best meet the needs of your organization.
