English in the Workplace: Business English as a Lingua Franca in Boardwalk Direct Selling Company

With the current international competition among global companies, Business English as a Lingua Franca (BEFL) has become a necessity. As for one, Boardwalk Direct Selling Company recognizes the adoption of the BEFL concept within the organization to equip its workforce with adequate English language skills at par with global standards. This study aims to assess the organization’s current English proficiency and the readiness of its employees to embrace BEFL. This also presents the major English language skills areas that need improvement through training intervention. A stratified sampling method is utilized to extract data via an online survey. Respondents are strategically chosen to represent different strata such as organizational departments or groups, job levels, tenure, and age. A convenient size of 34 respondents participated in this study. Generally, respondents acknowledge the importance of the English language skill set in their job functions and as criteria for their career growth. Half of the sampling population affirms their English language proficiency. However, the study reveals that Boardwalk employees are willing to subject themselves to improving their English skills, most particularly in speaking and writing aspects. Given their willingness, the employees recommend that the company strengthen its BEFL trainings across the organization. Moreover, with the current setup of mostly working from home due to COVID restrictions, majority of the employees prefer online learning.

Pharmacological and Toxicological Screening of Vernonia Anthelmintica

Importance of herbal medicine cannot be denied even in the modern era. Various active allopathic medicine came into being from plant origin. Vernonia anthelmintica is one such herbal remedy that has been used in traditional system of medicine. Many parts of this plant are being used by humans for curing various illnesses. Since the use of seeds of Vernonia anthelmintica is increasing in traditional practice it is the need of time to establish its safety and efficacy by thorough screening in terms of toxicity as well as pharmacological activity. Though few studies authenticate some pharmacological actions of this herb however, the safety profile is lacking even in these studies. Present study is thus designed to evaluate the toxicological and pharmacological potential through in-vitro and in-vivo methods. In vitro experiments include phytochemistry of hexane, ethanol extract and water decoction of Vernonia anthelmintica seeds. Moreover bio-assays to evaluate antibacterial, cytotoxic, antioxidant, antiglycation, phytotoxic, insecticidal and antileishmanial potential of hexane and ethanol extracts were also undertaken. In-vivo methods include subchronic toxicity studies conducted on rabbits to elucidate its effects on hematology, coagulation, hepatic function, renal profile, electrolyte status and metabolism of lipids and glucose. Pharmacological disease models were also designed in Sprague drawly rat and albino mice to establish its role in hyperlipidemia, diabetes, inflammation and nociception. The results revealed cytotoxic potential against selected cancer cell line, strong dose dependent antioxidant and phytotoxic potential and moderate antileishmanial potential in selected extracts. Considerable antiglycation potential was also observed in ethanol extract. Present study also revealed the safety of Vernonia anthelmintica on subchronic use. In vivo results showed no deleterious alteration in hematology, renal function, liver function and lipid/ glucose metabolism as compared to normal control. Subchronic use of Vernonia anthelmintica showed favorable coagulation profile by lowering fibrinogen levels. Furthermore Vernonia anthelmintica showed favorable effects in disease model of hyperlipidemia, diabetes, inflammation and nociception. Subchronic dosing also showed weight reducing potential of Vernonia anthelmintica. Present results thus suggest the possible role of Vernonia anthelmintica in the safe treatment of obesity, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, inflammation, nociception, cancer and leishmaniasis. Furthermore its strong antioxidant potential can be used in preparing remedies to combat various diseases attributable to oxidative stress.
