What is Racism?
Racism takes many forms and can happen in many places. It includes prejudice, discrimination or hatred directed at someone because of their color, ethnicity or national origin. People often associate racism with acts of abuse or harassment; however, it doesn’t need to involve violent or intimidating behavior. Sometimes it can occur in more subtle ways, but is also wrong.
Much of the racism that occurs can be characterized as casual racism– everyday incidents of racism that aren’t necessarily violent or consciously malicious, but perpetuate stereotypes about different cultures through jokes and offhand comments.
Color racism cases are are also increases, recently we heard that why George Floyd’s death sparked violent protests across the United States. Government need to stop this incident and make some strong provision in Constitution related to Racism.
We, here at Lycos follows all our managements guidelines about Equality. For us every our employee is important and equal. And we also want to encourage the society and the world, that we need to do some seminar or webinar against it and support gender equality.
Racism will not stop only by strict action, we need to change the thought power behind it. We need to stand together & pledge to do better at fighting racism.
Lets not only make change, be the change:)

No comments yetCorona Virus Effect: Best Business Practices to Implement Right Now
April 13th, 2020 by adminThe corona virus outbreak has shut down factories and workplaces worldwide, impacting the global supply chain at every level. Businesses in the world are scrambling to make sales and meet demand, as the nation practices social distancing, avoiding public spaces and mass transportation.
There are few highlighted points which we need to look after.
Create a Plan
As corona virus spreads, more businesses are putting safeguards in place to protect their companies and employees. A key precaution many business owners are taking includes creating or revamping an emergency preparedness plan. If you haven’t created a plan yet, it’s time to giddy up, employers!
Invest in work from home technology
While most people likely have a phone, a computer and an internet connection. some may not have enough bandwidth to do the kind of work they do at the office at home.
Some companies may also not be set up with the right collaboration tools, such as internal communications programs or secure Wi-Fi networks to allow for remote work.
Inform employees About Updates
No one likes being left out of the loop, especially when something like the corona virus strikes. When it comes to protecting your business, you must, must, must communicate with your employees and keep them up-to-date.
Keep your employees informed
Just like managers and supervisors, you absolutely need to keep your employees posted, too. To communicate corona virus related news to your employees, you can send out messages or emails or have a mandatory company meeting.
Create a disaster preparedness policy
A lot of companies haven’t planned for a crisis on this scale, As many are finding out now, they need one, says Lycos. A good plan will cover a number of things, including procedures around remote work. It should spell out how people should work from home and what tools they’ll need to get the job done; how to handle travel; what to do about meetings and more.

No comments yetWhat you need to know about coronavirus disease 2020 (COVID-19)
April 3rd, 2020 by adminWhat is corona virus disease 2020 (COVID-19)?
Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory illness that can spread from person to person. The virus that causes COVID-19 is a novel corona virus that was first identified during
an investigation into an outbreak in Wuhan, China.
How does COVID-19 spread?
The virus that causes COVID-19 probably emerged from an animal source, but is now spreading from person to person. The virus is thought to spread mainly between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet) through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It also may be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads.
What are the symptoms of COVID-19?
Patients with COVID-19 have had mild to severe respiratory illness with symptoms of
- fever
- cough
- shortness of breath
How can you help to protect yourself and your family?
People can help protect themselves from respiratory illness with everyday preventive actions.
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.
If you are sick, to keep from spreading respiratory illness to others, you should
• Stay home when you are sick.
• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the
tissue in the trash.
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.
Lycos Ceramic advising you to stay at home for better world.
