CIHRM inaugurates committees to strengthen professional leadership

The Chartered Institute of Human Resource Management Practitioners (CIHRMP) has taken another bold step in advancing professional governance and operational excellence with the inauguration of its statutory and advisory committees on August, in Accra.

The committees inaugurated include the Executive Committee, Human Resource Committee, Publicity, Communication and Events Committee, Professional Certification Board, Finance Committee, Audit Committee, Education, Research and Policy Committee, Fellowship, Membership and Registration Committee, Infrastructure and ICT Committee, and the Legal, Ethics and Disciplinary Committee. The ceremony, which was graced by the President of the Institute, Mrs. Florence Hutchful, and the Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Francis Eduku and other council members, was marked by a renewed sense of commitment and enthusiasm as the members took their oath of service. The swearing-in was administered by the President, who charged the committees to work diligently and uphold the values of professionalism, ethics, and collaboration. In her address, Mrs. Hutchful underscored the importance of collective leadership in driving the Institute’s strategic agenda. “These committees embody the strength of our profession; people who give their time, expertise, and energy to build something greater than themselves,” she said. “CIHRMP is evolving, and it is through such structures that we ensure sustainability, accountability, and growth across all facets of our operations.” For his part, Dr. Eduku commended the committee members for their willingness to serve and highlighted the crucial role they will play in the Institute’s growth efforts. “This inauguration is not just a formality ; it signifies the importance we attach to the growth of this institution and the confidence we have in our professionals,” he stated. “As we design our growth strategies, strengthen our systems, and expand our reach and membership base, these committees will be at the heart of that transformation.” With the committees now fully operational, CIHRMP is poised to deepen its impact, reinforce ethical HR practice, and strengthen its position as the leading professional body shaping the future of human resource management in Ghana.

Oronde Gadsden, Chargers Tight End, and Other Waiver Pickups

We’re halfway through the NFL season, and fantasy football teams are hurting. George Kittle had a goose egg in his first week back, Nico Collins can’t get on the same page as C.J. Stroud, and Oronde Gadsden outscored every other tight end in half PPR. These waiver wire pickups can get you back on the right track ahead of Week 8. Oronde Gadsden, Chargers Tight End, and Other Waiver Pickups Pickup and Play Options Oronde Gadsden, Chargers Tight End Gadsden just had the most receiving yards by a rookie tight end since 2000. His snap percentage has climbed, his targets are climbing, and he’s a vital part of this offense. He might be a top two option on the Chargers offense, and he’s the top pickup for any tight-end-hungry teams (which is a lot of them). Gadsden is rostered in 12% of leagues on Sleeper. Kyle Monangai, Bears Running Back The Baltimore Ravens can’t stop a sneeze on the ground right now, and Monangai showed what he can do with an increased workload. His running style is no-nonsense and straightforward, which will continue to earn him touches on an ascending offense. Monangai is rostered in 11% of leagues on Sleeper. Darnell Mooney, Falcons Wide Receiver There’s a chance Mooney is already on someone’s roster. But it’s unlikely they started him, and they’re frustrated with his early-season injuries. If he’s available on waivers, he’s the WR2 for the Falcons and gets a fantastic matchup against the Dolphins even with quarterback questions. Mooney is rostered in 37% of leagues on Sleeper. Pat Freiermuth, Steelers Tight End Arthur Smith has never burned fantasy football managers before, right? More importantly, the Green Bay Packers are a plus matchup for tight ends, and one of Freiermuth or Smith is going to have some value this week. After an explosion in Week 7, the answer should be Freiermuth, but Smith might just make it Darnell Washington for the memes. Freiermuth is rostered in 10% of leagues on Sleeper.

Miami woman who entrusted dog to Rover sitter shocked to find pet’s cremated remains when she returned from vacation

A Florida woman was in shock after she returned from vacation and discovered her dog was cremated while in the care of a pet sitter. Eilyn Jimenez of Miami Shores, Florida, told Local 10 she entrusted her three dogs — including her 12-year-old maltese-shitzu, Aria — to sitter Barbara Paz while on vacation in August. She found Paz through Rover, an app that connects pet owners with pet sitters. At first, Paz was sending her regular updates, Jimenez said. “During the trip, I had been checking in with her, asking how everything was going and she was like, ‘No, everything is fine, everything is wonderful.’ Sending me videos of the dogs, perfect,” she told the outlet. When Jimenez returned from vacation on August 31, Paz allegedly told her Aria died in her sleep and that she was cremated. Jimenez claims Aria was cremated without her or her husband’s permission, and suspects it was done to cover up the truth, Local 10 reports. Paz allegedly allowed another person, Daniel Cruz, to pay Resting Rainbow Pet Memorials and Cremation to have Aria cremated on August 29, Local 10 reports. Joseph Castronovo, a staff member at the animal funeral company, said Cruz claimed it was his dog. “The guy came in and said it was his dog. He wanted it cremated immediately. He paid 400 extra dollars to cremate it that moment when he brought it into the office,” Castronovo told Local 10. When Local 10 asked why someone would want a “rush cremation job,” Castronovo said, “Destroy of evidence, that’s why.” The company told Jimenez that Aria “had her scalp separated from her skull and an eye popping out,” and that Cruz said Aria was “attacked by a bigger dog,” according to Local 10. Now, Jimenez says she’s filed a report with the Miami Shores Police Department. She also received an apology from Rover and $1,000, but she didn’t accept the money, Local 10 reports. “I have 12 years that I was with her that have now been ripped away because somebody made a bad decision,” Jimenez said told the outlet. “I still dream of her, I still feel that sadness inside because she was ripped away from me and they just continued with their life as if nothing,” she added. When approached by Local 10 for comment, Paz said she spoke with Aria’s owners but did not answer the outlet’s questions about Aria’s cause of death. A Rover spokesperson told the outlet that Paz has been removed from their platform. “The sitter involved has been deactivated from our platform,” the spokesperson said. “We stand ready to assist law enforcement with their investigation.” The Independent has contacted Cruz, Rover, Resting Rainbow Pet Memorials and Cremation and the Miami Shores Police Department for comment.
