Facing Budget Cuts in the Coast Guard
A 7 page paper discussing a case in which the St. John district of Canada's Coast Guard has been faced with the necessity of implementing budget
cuts. Morale is low in all ranks; discipline is lax. Crews are not required to maintain even minimum discipline and there is little regard for distinctions between private and professional life. The manager in charge is overwhelmed by the challenge of reducing the total budget by 10
percent over two years and has not yet realized that merely correcting inefficiencies can result not only in the minimum cuts necessary but also improve morale, quality and service to Canadian citizens. Bibliography lists 1 source.
