Characteristics of project



A project is a work effort made over a finite period of time with a start and a finish to create a unique product or service or result. Because a project has a start and a finish, it is also called a temporary effort or endeavor. In other words, a project is a temporary endeavor taken to create a unique product, service or result. So, a project has two defining characteristics: It is temporary, and it creates a unique result.

Let's try to understand these two defining concepts: temporary and unique.

Temporary - The temporary nature of projects refers to the fact that each project has a definite beginning and a definite end. A project can reach its end in one of two possible ways:
• The project has met its objectives-that is, the planned unique product has been created or the results achieved.
• The project has been terminated before its successful completion for whatever reason.
The temporary nature of projects can also apply to two other aspects:
• The opportunity to market the product that the project will produce is temporary-that is, the product needs to be produced in a limited timeframe; otherwise, it will be too late.
• A project team is temporary-that is, the project team is disbanded after the project ends, and the team members may be assigned to other projects eventually.
However, remember that the temporary nature of a project does not refer to the product it creates. The results or outcomes of a project are usually long lasting. Go back to the building your home example. Even though the construction process ends after say 9 months, your house is going to stand forever (Unless you plan on renovating or rebuilding it from scratch, which by themselves will be separate projects)

The second defining characteristic of a project is that it must create a unique product.

Unique product - The outcome of a project must be a unique product, service, or result.
How do these 3 terms differ from one another?
• Product - This is a tangible, quantifiable artifact that is either the end item or a component of outcome. The LCD TV in your living room or the fast BMW Car you drive or the nice diamond pendant you got your wife on her birthday are some examples of products.
• Service - Actually, when we say a project can create a service, we really mean the capability to perform a service. For example, a project that creates a website for a bank to offer online banking has created the capability for the bank to offer the online banking to its customers.
• Result. This is usually the knowledge related outcome of a project-for example, the results of an analysis performed in a research project

Employer Rules for Hiring Non-US Workers

The immigration debate isn't just about undocumented workers -- employers are key players too. No matter which side of the debate you favor or what role you play in the hiring process, job seekers of all kinds should understand the rules that employers must follow when hiring both citizens and noncitizens.
The Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1996 says employers with four or more employees may not discriminate against noncitizens with proper authorization to work. Employers are also responsible for verifying that employees are authorized to work in the United States.
Employers can demonstrate compliance with IRCA by treating all new hires -- citizens and noncitizens -- the same. Thus, many employers now routinely ask for proof of citizenship or work authorization documents from all new hires. According to the 'Lectric Law Library, this includes establishing a policy of hiring only individuals who are authorized to work; a "US citizens-only" policy is illegal except in cases where US citizenship is required by federal, state or local law, or government contract.
Documents Needed for Authorization to Work
Employers should complete an Employment Eligibility Verification Form (Form I-9) for all new hires, regardless of citizenship. To complete the form, employers must permit employees to present any document or combination of documents acceptable by law. The list includes a US passport, resident alien card ("green card") or a long list of documents showing identity and authority to work, including a driver's license, an ID card with a photograph and identifying information, US military card or draft record, Social Security card, or an original or certified copy of a birth certificate. Not all aliens authorized to work are issued green cards. Employers are also responsible for keeping track of expiration dates on the documents presented.
According to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, formerly the Immigration and Naturalization Service, employers can terminate an employee who fails to produce the required document, or a receipt for a replacement document, within three business days of the date employment begins. An employee who presents a receipt for a replacement document must produce the actual document within 90 days after employment begins.
Employer Responsibility for Verification
Employers must examine the documents and, if they appear to be genuine and to relate to the person presenting them, accept them. To do otherwise could be an unfair immigration-related practice. If a document does not reasonably appear to be genuine and/or does not appear to relate to the person presenting it, an employer need not accept it. Contact the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement office for assistance.
If law enforcement authorities discover an employee is not authorized to work, employers who properly complete Form I-9 cannot be charged with a verification violation. However, an employer cannot knowingly continue to employ that individual. IRCA also makes it illegal to knowingly hire any alien not authorized to work.
Hiring Nonresident Workers
Employers who want to hire someone who lives outside the US for permanent work, must file Form I-140, Petition for Alien Worker, and may also have to complete a labor certification request (ETA 750) from the US Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration's Division of Foreign Labor Certification.
Employers must file an I-129 petition to hire foreign workers for temporary -- though not seasonal -- services or labor, or receive training.
Hiring noncitizen seasonal workers (usually agricultural workers) means employers must apply for temporary labor certificates from the US Department of Labor, under the H-2A Temporary Foreign Worker Program.
Employers who want to hire noncitizens who live outside the United States to work temporarily in the US must show their actions will not negatively affect the job opportunities, wages or working conditions of workers already residing here by demonstrating there are not enough such workers available and that the proposed wages and working conditions meet regional standards.
The employer must also actively attempt to recruit workers already residing in the US to fill the position, including newspaper and radio advertising. Employers must also provide free, approved housing for workers unable to go home each day, as well as certain types of transportation, workman's compensation or equivalent insurance and appropriate tools and supplies at no cost. Employers must also show that the position is not open because of a strike or lockout.
If certification is granted, an employer pays a fee of $100, plus $10 for each job opportunity certified, up to a maximum of $1,000 for each certification granted.
