Construction workforce management strategies to reduce absenteeism
Published 2014“…Despite the international location of the survey, the results indicate a worker demographic similar to that found in the southwestern United States and other areas with significant residential construction. The results also serve to highlight the significance of basic management techniques in reducing absenteeism: adopting training programs to increase the skill level of workers, providing incentives to increase the tenure of workers onsite, and arranging the working schedule to favor less overtime.…”

Comparative cost assessment of sustainable energy carriers produced from natural gas accounting for boil-off gas and social cost of carbon
Published 2020“…DME and methanol can be more economic compared to LNG to transport the energy of natural gas for the same ship capacity. Including social cost of carbon (SCC) within the total cost of transporting the energy of natural gas, the transportation cost of liquid ammonia is 1.11 $/GJ, whereas LNG transportation cost rises significantly to 1.68 $/GJ at SCC of 137 $/t CO<sub>2</sub> eq. …”
