This book explores the relationship between pedestrians/cyclists¿ mode and route choice to/from metro/railway stations and the micro-level (street-scale) built environment in a second-tier city in China. More specifically, it investigates how the street-scale built environment influences pedestrians/cyclists¿ mode choice and route choice behavior and examines user preferences for the micro-level built environment around metro stations. The focus on a second-tier city is motivated primarily to expand the set of Chinese cities where the effects of the built environment on pedestrian/cyclist mode and route choice have been studied. Results demonstrate the effects of the street-scale built environment on pedestrian flows. The effects are higher for the main road, which is directly connected with the metro station. The findings of this book are expected to support the design of preferred walking/biking built environments around a metro station. This book appeals to urbanists, planners, engineers, policy makers, and those interested in a wide-ranging overview of slow/green transportation and built environment promotion. These methods not only help to understand the quantitative relationship between built environment design and travel behavior but also support the evaluation and assessment of built environment design in urban planning projects. It reduces the gap in our understanding of the quantitative relationship between the micro-level built environment and pedestrians/cyclists¿ transportation mode and route choice around the metro station. Both stated choice data and revealed choice data were used. An extended set of micro-level built environment attributes was developed. Besides the widely studied transportation-related factors, street-level built environment factors were studied using quantitative methods.

Heutzutage bestehen immer höhere Anforderungen an die Unternehmensführung. Vor diesem Hintergrund spielt das Thema Compliance eine immer größere Rolle. Das Buch befasst sich mit Compliance-Richtlinien sowie den relevanten Problemen im Arbeitsrecht. Nach der Darstellung der Grundlage von Compliance und Compliance-Richtlinien konzentriert sich die Autorin auf die Umsetzung von Compliance-Richtlinien im Arbeitsrecht. Da diese Richtlinien viele Regelungsbereiche betreffen, untersucht sie die unterschiedlichen Implementierungsmöglichkeiten. Hinsichtlich der geltenden Gesetze und Rechtsprechungen setzt sich die Autorin mit dem Mitbestimmungsrecht des Betriebsrats auseinander und erörtert die Rechtsfolge bei Verstoß gegen Compliance-Richtlinien.
