Set out in detail, using case law examples, the right and its scope that applies to cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
Jane Smith in the UK asserts that she has been subjected to cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment by a public authority. Although she is angry about this, she is unsure of what action she might be able to take or what rights she may have. She has heard of judicial review but doesn’t want to be a nuisance for the courts. Jane’s friend is not affected by the alleged rights violation but feels an injustice is occurring that needs to be addressed. She therefore wants to bring a judicial review claim to highlight the injustice and get remedy for Jane.
Question 1:
Set out in detail, using case law examples, the right and its scope that applies to cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
Question 2:
Set out the process and conditions for bringing a judicial review claim, looking at both standing and merits.
Question 3:
Can Jane’s friend successfully bring a claim to highlight Jane’s situation and seek remedy? Explain your answer.
Question 4:
Would the position in Q3 be different if Jane was not willing to pursue judicial review based on her having a well-founded fear of persecution by the UK state? Could Jane’s friend, or any person or body other than Jane, now successfully bring a claim? Explain your answer.

What is their strategy regarding labour shortage (selection, recruitment, retaining talents…)?
Introduction:
Labour issues have always been related to the economy itself whether it be caused by a war, a bad decision from the government or a pandemic. The aim of the survival of industries is knowing how to deal with the loss of people willing or able to work and the volume of work that came with the shortage. After seeing what happened during the Second World War in order to lessen the aftermath’s impact there had to be something done about this important matter, specifically in the hospitality industry.
The Prompts:
What is their strategy regarding labour shortage (selection, recruitment, retaining talents…)?
What tactics did they use? Have those strategies and tactics evolved over the past decades/years?
Women in the workforce
What happened to hotels specifically?
Bring in COVID
Actual methods; Overtime and Unions, Law and policies made by the government of different countries (USA, Europe, UK, Dubai), Incentives to return to work such as higher wages/salaries or other motivators, Humanitarian stuff, targeting other labour talent
What does Dubai do to bring in workers//immigrants and expats
Socioeconomic factors are all connected to attract talent in the job market
Digitalisation, Advantages and Disadvantages on the labour shortage in hospitality
What are modern hotels doing Businesses closing, online businesses now opening, people are less likely to want to work in a hotel anymore
Facts and figures to back up all that has been said so far
“Far from being a problem, the current labor shortages may yet be an opportunity to rebuild a fairer economy, improve incomes down the employment chain and boost productivity. Rather than trying to reinstate the pre-COVID labor market, Western societies should seize the chance to fashion a new social compact. Organization size has some influence since we assume that it determines the financial possibilities organizations have. We suppose that the sector an organization operates in will influence the possible solutions organizations can implement. We expect differences in responses among sectors in dealing with labour shortages. The method of increasing salaries for worker incentives: Organizations with high priorities on avoiding costs will be reluctant to raise wages” (van den Broek, 2012).
Hiring Foreigners because domestic labour is not catering the workforce needs
METHOD: Managing safety and security reports (What about letting workers achieve their needs and wants in a job. What about making it easier for women to join the workforce
Does hiring more people really fix the labour shortage problem?
What is their strategy regarding selection, recruitment, and retaining talents?
What tactics did the government use? Have those strategies and tactics evolved over the past decades/years?
COVID: What is a good HR policy to implement? People want security.
Mention Unions Mention labor cost &, Payroll % – Past, Present and Future
Digitalization, new systems = less or more staff?
Consequences of the staffing methods, over/under
What can the Manager combat the following, what must they do to job descriptions and specifications in order to help with the shortage: Lowering the demand for so many things in any job specification (example: 5 languages required to work) Aka. Occupational shortages Mention Governments as well as hotels Websites and other research data that might be of help:
