What do we mean by ADR? Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is any procedure or combination of procedures entered into voluntarily by the parties to a dispute or disagreement.  ADR has also been described as Appropriate Dispute Resolution. ADR and the Courts Whilst ADR has always been with us, since the civil procedures rules (CPR) were introduced in 1999 the courts now encourage parties to use ADR instead of litigation where this is appropriate.

  People make judgments about you just by listening to your voice. It isn't only the words  you use, but how you say them can make a difference.  When people see you (face-to-face communication), the impact of your voice is approximately 38% of the overall impression you make—the "picture." Over the phone, it jumps  to 85%—since there are no visual cues.  There are certain things you can do to have a more pleasing voice: • Have an appropriate expression  Sound enthusiastic, or, when appropriate, alter your tone to fit the conversation  (sounding sympathetic when talking about sad news, etc.)  • Speak at the right temp  Speak slowly enough that people understand you easily, yet not so slowly that you  are taking too long to complete a thought.   • Pause  By pausing, you give people enough time to take in what you are saying. When  you finish a thought, think of adding a period (.) by counting to three in your mind....

  H 2 S GAS (HYDROGEN SULFIDE) - KILLER GAS   H₂S occurs naturally in the processing of oil & gas and could be found in all oil and gas facilities of operations. Hence, oil and gas companies put forth appropriate measures to manage the hazards of hydrogen sulfide.  Protective Equipment and System, Regulations and procedures are in place, which, if followed, allow us to work safely with hydrogen sulfide.  What makes  H₂S deadly?  1) It is very hard to detect - you can not see it and high concentration, you can not smell it, your nose will become useless as the gas increases. Since you smell nothing, you think it is safe— a mistake that could be fatal.  2) It is highly poisonous - it goes directly to your brain and stops your lungs.  You can not breath anymore; without air, death occurs. It could kill with only one breath. Contact: 00 91 9790104017 WhatsApp: 00 91 9790104017 Skillhelpcentre.blogspot.com 

  When I was working in a construction company, there was an issue regarding the measurement of the valve box. The estimation department in the same company measured the valve box as per CESSM3 (Civil Engineering Standard Method of Measurement, Third Edition). but excluding the mechanical parts inside the valve box. The Estimation department in the same company was not aware of the impact of these items; unfortunately, the valve box was constructed for large-bore pipes. There were no remarks or notes in the tender BOQ, the contract was already awarded. When we executed this project, our team identified that these small errors cost SAR millions. When we clarified with the Estimation Department, the Estimation Department did not respond properly.  They are not ready to accept his errors. our team reanalyzed this issue, and we intimated this issue to the top management, and top management accepted this impact of this issue. We prepared contemporary site records with all the suppo...
