Problem Description: Barriers against the handicaps are one of the most important social problems for companies. “It is estim[a]ted that approximately 10 percent of all Americans are “mobility-restricted”” which means they have some kind of physical or mental disability which should be taken in concertation by the companies. But many restaurants have stairs that will become a barrier for the handicaps to enter such restaurants. Also, such handicaps face terrible accessing the railways. “Almost half of disabled rail passengers reported that they anticipated problems with future rail travel, with those travelling for commuting purposes being the most likely to anticipate barriers.”

Second Problem: Knowing Fashion Trends and Pricing References: The New Nation. (29 June 2016). Eid shopping gets momentum in dists. Retrieved September 18, https://global.factiva.com/ha/default.aspx#./!? 2019, from &_suid=1568667047651093390407469135 72

Problem Description: Looking fashionable is a fundamental need but nowadays it is becoming an economic issue for the customers. In some Islamic countries, where residences are required to buy new clothes on the Eid festivals, but can’t effort buy new and fashionable clothes because of the changing fashion and the increasing pricing. As mentioned in News Nation, “Anisa Begum with two kids

after watching the products, taking idea about price and knowing fashion trends, said that prices become 20-25 percent higher than previous year priced.” From shirts to shorts and shoes, individuals are currently progressively aware of their clothes and looking satisfactory particularly when going in worldwide urban areas like New York, Milan and Paris. In such urban communities, the design is as much an onlooker sport as it is a genuine industry. As it is noticed that in Canada things get cheaper on festivals whereas in such countries are opposite and exploit the customers because of the high demand. Thus, the problem of knowing current fashion trends and high pricing are even more important.

Problem Description: Peanuts labelling policy are uncleared in some South Asian countries which is one of the important social issue. “As medical reports over the last decade indicate that food allergies

among children are on the rise, peanut allergies in particular have become a topic of intense social debate.” Most people can mistakenly consume nut products without reading the labels provided by the law that the food is containing nuts. Such products can be deadly dangerous to one’s health. This is because, in some countries, companies are not required proper labelling laws. Surprisingly, in some restaurant’s the ingredients aren’t mentioned; in fact, some waitresses are not sure if peanut goes into the food.

Problem Importance: In some countries, peanuts are utilized in basically all food items and regardless of whether labelling is given by law on most nourishments that contain nuts or have been in contact with them, a few people can at present devour these nourishments accidentally. This can particularly be dangerous to individuals with nuts sensitivities. As Press Association stated, " One in every 100 adults and one in every 50 children have peanut allergies. According to “Help on way for peanut allergy?” article, “The allergy affects more than 1.6 million children in the United States”. Also, people who travel around with sensitive peanut allergies can be at risk for themselves and others’ especially, when they are on the plane or in a country where labelling is not required to mention the addition of peanuts. Researchers are as yet attempting to discover why nut hypersensitivities exist, yet they might be a direct result of the extraordinary proteins that peanuts have contrasted with different nourishments. As mentioned in ENP Newswire, “Food allergies represent an area of tremendous unmet medical need. There are currently no FDA approved treatments for any food allergy, including peanut allergies.” I feel that shelled nut sensitivities are a major issue as they influence purchasers as well as restaurants, companies, hospitals and clinics. Individuals who are adversely affected by peanuts must be on the consistent post of peanuts around them and in their nourishment since certain individuals can be incredibly sensitive to peanuts and notwithstanding being close to them can cause rashes and can even lead to death....
