Catalyst and other research organizations caution that this age group has high demands for employers. If their demands are not met, they will leave. And they are highly sensitive to the way in which they are treated. If the Gen Xer believes that his employer is not making a commitment to him, he will leave. 3. The survey found that more than 70 percent of them rated companionship, a loving family and enjoying life as extremely important. In contrast, fewer than 20 percent of them said earning a lot of money and becoming an influential leader were extremely important goals.4.

The problems pointed out by Martinez are bad education, unemployment and lack of health insurance.3. The author says Latino turnout and preference will be decisive in the election because they are the majority minority and more of Latinos than ever before are expected to go to the polls, and a large number of those people are not tied to either political party.4.

AVI.1. WWII led to womens entry into the workforce. As men marched off to fight, women took their husbands places in factories and on the farms. They never looked back. Most now take it for granted that women have as much to offer at work as men do.2. No, it is more than a financial issue because it raises social as well as economic questions and its resolution will involve governments, employers and people.3. The babyboom generation is far larger than the generation that follows it or any that preceded it. Its achievement will cast a shadow over the companies it is set to leave.4. The present ways of dealing with a falling supply of labor are shifting work offshore, laxer immigration rules and use of new equipment.5. If they were offered the chance of staying on at work, many older employees would jump at the chance because they will no longer be able to retire in the style they have been led to expect. Corporate pension schemes and health benefits are becoming even less generous. Besides the need for money, many elderly people want to continue working for mental stimulation.6.

Britains gender pay gap of 2008 was larger than that of 2007. Men were paid 17.1% more than women for full-time work while the disparity in part-time wages was 36.6%, up from 35.8% in 2007.4.

Yet only a month later, the US intervened in the market to bail out LTCM.3. The author thinks that the minor adjustment in voting rights in the World Bank and International Monetary Fund is symbolic of the increase of the easts say in decision making in global economic affairs.4. Reminbi has gained an elevation in status. Over time , some countries will keep more Reminbi, making it more like reserve currency.5. The recent crisis shows that blindly seeking growth is dangerous.
