There exist contrasting views about supervisors seeking some data, while employing new workers, about their likes and dislikes or their marital status that whether it is relevant or irrelevant to inquire about this information. There exist strong arguments in support of both sides of this debate, which implies it is worth examining both points of view before reaching any conclusion.
To commence with, it is vital to collect the necessary data about the fresh entrants in any organisation because it would give an idea about providing incentives to particular worker to boost the morale. Precisely, the management would be able to decide that whether reward should be monetary or non-monetary. To illustrate, a strong economy of Japan is evident because of contented workers due to the perfect recognition methodology adopted by the industrialists. It is, therefore, imperative to gather the requisite data to utilise it at a correct time.
On the contrary, every human has a different psychological pattern, and some employees may consider this as a wrong practice. As they would be creating a false and negative image about the company at a very initial stage, it would affect their output level deleteriously. A recent research in Europe, for example, proved that a colossal number of young working professionals did not perform well in beginning of their job because they were not pleased with the questions being asked during their interview. Hence, the reason of asking questions should be mentioned on company’s website to avoid any conflicts.
In conclusion, it can be reiterated that whereas demanding some information about their families from a fresh entrant could be proved advantageous for rewarding them, it might lead to a negative approach about the company. However, it would be a smart move, in my perspective, for strengthening the bond between factory and its workers.

The bar graph demonstrates the recycling trends of four different materials—plastic, cans, paper and glass— every five years from 1992 to 2002. Households were more conscious of recycling all four materials, supported by the higher ratio of households recycling each category at the end of the decade comparing with the beginning data. The most noticeable change was demonstrated by the glass, whose ratio almost doubled every five years, from under 15% in 1992 to 49% in 2002. Tripled percentage of household started recycling paper in 2002 compared with the data in 1992, that were 29% versus 13% respectively. When it comes to cans, it can be found that people were less aware of recycling cans in the first half-decade of the period, and the graph shows a 3% drop in households recycling such material. However, a sheer increase was detected in the next five years; the ratio doubled compared to the first half-decade. Instead of showing a decreasing percentage of household recycling plastic, a 3% increase can be concluded from 1992 to 1997. Intriguingly, there was no change in the data happened in the last half-decade. Overall, glass ended up with the most recycled material in the end, and households awareness of recycling plastic has the largest room for improvement.
