People 'excellence' or people 'exploitation'

I recently have completed an assignment for a so called 'services' organization and am surprised to know that over 80% of the employees who leave the organization are exploited in the name of processes, even to the extent of asking them to pay back salary the organization has paid to them while working for them (including, in the cases where an employee is asked to resign forcefully or resigns at his own will because of abuse at work) and then later on demanded a notice salary citing the agreement/contract which the employee generally signs in good faith while joining the organization.

We come from all walks of the society, with different educational & social backgrounds. Most of the times, for the sake of showing off people around you or while pretending to be happy- we loose the  real person we live with ( your own conscience and the ‘real’ yourse...

critical factors to be addressed for a online/tele-shopping model in India

- Payment mechanism (wire/cash on delivery contributes to less than 3% of total online transactions) while Cheque in India seems to be just a confirmation, not a guarantee. If a cheque bounces (more than 2% of the cheque bounces for government utilities where there is a service termination /legal process/ or penalty is well defined in the payment acceptance policy and the customer even faces de-activation of his services whichever he is subscribed to, in addition to imprisonment of 6 months and a penalty of Rs 100/- min on such situations. Despite of all these collection policy guidelines, there are discrepancies in payment receipts; this needs to be well defined. - Pricing: The pricing is a critical factor to any purchase which is done online/ on a tele-shopping model. Either the brand has got high brand value & recognition/ or if the brand is not available locally,then the customer prefers to buy the product through online mode. - Local partners: The models which you are planning...
