Hello, good afternoon.
I’m willing to provide a solution to an issue we face this visually
impaired attorneys. The solution can be an economically effective way to
help us navigate around the office in ways that are economically feasible
and defective while also helping the assistant. By the way, these tasks
are usually menial diminutive tasks that are not vital to the practice of
law, but are still important for the day-to-day management of law
operations and practicing law— And these tasks happen to require vision.
Such tasks include staple things together, putting together binders
scanning copying that kind of stuff.
One way we can have a funnel of readily available labor to satisfy these
tasks rather than having our firms or organizations bring dedicated people
on payroll to help us with these things is offering unpaid internship
opportunities to high schoolers for college students to help with these
tasks. If necessary, we can even provide the minimum wage with no benefit
benefits in a small level salary. This arrangement is mutually beneficial
because high schoolers and college students usually have no work
experience, and having an opportunity to work at a law office operation
will provide in valuable experience on their résumé that will help get
future work. A lot of of them also don’t mind getting paid minimum wage,
which is not economically burden some for the firm that employs us in
return, the visually impaired attorney gets help at low cost to help with
these incidental diminutive. ‘Menial Task tasks and (work) flows in a
non-economically burden some way and the supply of labor is readily
available and frequent because lots of highschoolers in college students
want jobs to get their foot in the door and get experience. Basically, the
student worker Benefits because they get crucial experience for the résumé
while also getting small amounts of money that is not economically
burdensome to the firm wall also helping the visually impaired lawyer with
these incidental peripheral tasks, with the supply of the labor being
readily available and frequently available because there are so many high
school student students in college student students want jobs and can’t
otherwise get jobs in this very competitive market.
This solution can work very well for our needs. There’s only one practical
issue. Confidentiality. Some people might not want to give college kids or
highschoolers access to confidential information because of the sensitivity
of a lot Office operation; however, this issue can be remediated by
frequent supervision by office, managerial staff, and proper vetting and
interviewing.
Overall, I think this solution is something we should push forward. It is
mutually beneficial for all involved – – the student who gets experience
and gets phenomenal amount of money and the attorney in the firm who get
productivity at low cost. It is mutually beneficial for everyone and I
think we should seriously consider it.
I just want to send this message in the list. Serve to open up discussion
and feel free to chime in and everyone provide their own insights thoughts.
Please feel free to write insights on how it will work and why it may not
work. Are there any ways that we can improve upon this? If there are
certain things that don’t work with this arrangement, how can we get around
that and still make it work?
Let’s open the floor for discussion?
