CASE STUDY ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF REVERSE LOGISTICS PRACTICES IN A COMPANY PRODUCING HYGIENE PRODUCTS
Currently, it is necessary for companies to understand both distribution logistics processes and those involving reverse logistics, which is characterized by the treatment and final destination of post-consumption and post-sale products. The implementation of the reverse logistics features propelling forces and restrictive forces that assist and inhibit, respectively, its implementation. The objective of this paper is to study the propelling and restrictive forces of reverse logistics and to identify through a case study of a company producing hygiene products whether reverse logistics practices are applied, and in what form. In addition, we sought to identify the existence of specific performance indicators. It was found that the company considers reverse logistics a strategic issue and that, despite the existence of few performance indicators related to this topic, waste generation was reduced from 10% to 7% on the production volume, indicating that materials were being reused.

Read the following article and answer question based on the text.
Faced with the unprecedented stream of migrants fleeing war and trauma in the Middle East and North Africa, Europe needs to take clear-sighted action.
For its part, the UK has agreed to take 20,000 refugees, a significant portion of whom will likely be children and orphans according to report. One key aspect in ensuring their smooth settlement in the UK will be providing these refugees with language training.
Many Syrians are well-educated and many speak fluent English. Others, however, do not speak English well enough to function professionally within the UK. The issue of language is so fundamental to our lives that we often overlook it. Several multi-million pound training contracts have failed to be delivered on account of not addressing the language barrier. All the goodwill, financial backing, and technical expertise to deliver needed medical, economic, military,engineering, or navigational training may be present; but unless there is a shared language in which to impart that knowledge, little will be accomplished.
One of the biggest misconceptions about language is that if you “just go to the country,” you’ll pick it up. Many people believe that immersion will guarantee fluency; yet you may well know several immigrants who have been in this country for years and still only speak broken English. You might also know dozens of expats in various countries across the world who have failed to pick up the local languages of their host countries. Training and effort are both necessary.
Though not a guarantee of fluency, immersion is a wonderful opportunity. The first issue we need to address with respect to refugees is ensuring that those who come will actually be immersed. That is, that they will be welcomed as part of larger communities, and not simply join communities of other refugees. On the other hand, immersion is just an opportunity, and in order to take full advantage of it, training and education are required. In terms of refugees, we need to consider options for the provision of language training, whether by self-study, classroom instruction, private tuition, or some combination of the three.
The array of needs is staggering. In truth, every language learner has a different set of learning objectives, and will require different training to meet those objectives. Coordinating the actual needs with providers in different regions and accounting for different personal schedules and start dates is a significant challenge. It is, however, a challenge that must be addressed immediately, as proficiency in English will be a key enabler of success for refugees in this country.
