Evaluating the Effectiveness of Policy Measures to Support Spatial Mobility in Slovakia: The Contribution for Commuting to Work and the Contribution for Resettlement

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Policy Measures to Support Spatial Mobility in Slovakia: The Contribution for Commuting to Work and the Contribution for Resettlement

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Policy Measures to Support Spatial Mobility in Slovakia: The Contribution for Commuting to Work and the Contribution for Resettlement

Author(s): Miroslav Štefánik,Katarína Karasová / Language(s): English / Issue: 08/2016

Keywords: spatial mobility; propensity score matching; counterfactual impact evaluation; active labour market policy;

This paper evaluates the impact of two active labour market measures providing financial contributions to cover costs related to spatial mobility of the unemployed. One supports daily commuting and the other resettlement. For the purpose of evaluation, administrative data from the obligatory social insurance database and the official register of the unemployed were linked. Three indicators of outcome are identified, commuting time, the income of individuals and employment after the end of support. The richness of the data allowed us to use propensity score matching in order to rule out possible selectivity issues. After achieving satisfactory balance, we have yielded comprehensive and robust, significant positive effects of both of the measures under evaluation. The estimated impact differs regionally and is based on the individual characteristics of the beneficiaries.

THE EFFECT OF HIGH PERFORMANCE WORK SYSTEMS UTILIZATION ON FIRM PERFORMANCE: DOES HUMAN RESOURCE ATTRIBUTION OF EMPLOYEES MATTER?

THE EFFECT OF HIGH PERFORMANCE WORK SYSTEMS UTILIZATION ON FIRM PERFORMANCE: DOES HUMAN RESOURCE ATTRIBUTION OF EMPLOYEES MATTER?

THE EFFECT OF HIGH PERFORMANCE WORK SYSTEMS UTILIZATION ON FIRM PERFORMANCE: DOES HUMAN RESOURCE ATTRIBUTION OF EMPLOYEES MATTER?

Author(s): Shibiru Ayalew Melesse / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2016

Keywords: HPWS; HRM; performance; HR attribution;

A large body of research suggests that high performance work systems (HPWSs) that enhance employees’ competencies, and motivate them, leads to competitive advantage. HPWPs are radically not ‘new practices’; they have been around for many years and have already been adopted by various organizations. However, the link between HPWS adoption & firm performance is yet blurred. The aim of this paper was to examine the moderating role of employees’ HR attributions on the relationship between adoption of HPWSs and firm performance. The current paper argues that human resource (HR) attribution of employees moderates the relationship between HPWS and firm performance such that the effective adoption of high performance work systems in an organization partly depends on the type of employees’ attributions (commitment versus control) of HR practices in the company. More specifically, it is proposed that adoption of HPWS can be more effective in organizations where employees’ attributions of HR practices is commitment focus than in firms where employees’ attributions of HR practice is control focus. The study contributes to understanding the ‘black box’ of HRM-performance link. Theoretical and practical implications and future research directions are discussed.

The Evaluation of a Professional Development Program in Social Work. Using SWOT Analysis as an Evaluation Method

Author(s): Diana-Cristina Bódi,Mihaela Gotea / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2016

Keywords: professional development; evaluation of a program in social work; SWOT analysis

This paper presents the partial results of evaluation for a professional development program, created for social workers from the Social Service of Hospice “House of Hope” Brasov, Romania. In the final evaluation stage, we have used several methods and instruments to identify the efficiency of the program and to find ways to improve it. One of them was the SWOT analysis, through which we intend to identify the strengths and limitations of the program implemented. SWOT analysis was filled out by both the specialists participating in the professional development program and the lecturers who have held the working sessions. The partial results of the final evaluation have revealed that the program developed has achieved its goals and met the expectations of the participants and those identified at the managerial level.

»HALFWAY TRADITION«: TRANSITION, NATION, SEX, AND DEATH IN THE WORK OF MARINA ABRAMOVIĆ AND MLADEN MILJANOVIĆ

Author(s): Uroš Čvoro / Language(s): English / Issue: 085/2017

Keywords: Abramović; Miljanović; art; tradition; transition; nationalism;

This article examines how the artists Marina Abramović and Mladen Miljanović apprehend the terms Balkan and Europe as frameworks for understanding the post-communist transition in the countries of the former Yugoslavia. Abramović’s representations of pagan sex rituals in Balkan Erotic Epic (2005) and tombstone engravings in Miljanović’s The Garden of Earthly Delights (2013) capture what I describe as “halfway traditions”: cultural practices that simultaneously problematize the normative teleology of the Balkans moving away from primitivism and toward the civilization of Europe, and act as parodies of the nationalist reinvention of tradition. By highlighting “halfway tradition” as the symbol of the post-communist transitional state and a disruptive by-product of transition, Abramović and Miljanović critique ethno-nationalist politics of death and sex, and articulate an “in-between” temporality that disrupts the teleology of transition

Application of the concept of work − life balance in the activation of young people on the labor market

Zastosowanie koncepcji work – life balance w aktywizacji osób młodych na rynku pracy

Author(s): Agnieszka Łopatka / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 489/2017

Keywords: unemployment; work − life balance; young people on the labor marke

The article discusses the problem of activation of young people on the Polish labor market. At the beginning the analysis of participation of this group in the total number of unemployed was carried out. It was followed by the assumptions of the concept of work − life balance and its individual components. In the course of discussion the analysis of the impact of this concept on the level of activity and opportunities for persons under 25 years in the labor market was conducted. The aim of the discussion is to analyze and assess the situation of young people on the background of unemployment in Poland. In addition, this study aims to determine the direction of efforts to activate young people on the labor market and facilitate their entry into the labor market through the use of the concept of work − life balance.

Problematic overstudying: Studyholism or study addiction? Commentary on: Ten myths about work addiction (Griffiths et al., 2018)

Author(s): Yura Loscalzo,Marco Giannini / Language(s): English / Issue: 4/2018

Keywords: diagnosis; obsession; study addiction; study engagement; studyholism; workaholism

This commentary addresses Griffiths et al. (2018)’s sixth myth about work addiction. We agree that work addiction could also be spread in the school context, although we propose that problematic overstudying may be more similar to an obsession than to an addiction toward the study. We refer to the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria related to the obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) and the substance-use disorder, presenting some theoretical considerations related to the similarities and differences between problematic overstudying and these two diagnoses. Finally, we focus on the obsessive–compulsive personality disorder. We conclude that problematic overstudying might better be conceptualized as an OCD-related disorder.

Work Hours, Work – Family Conflict and Psychophysical Health of Working Parents – Are There Differences Between Women and Men?

Work Hours, Work – Family Conflict and Psychophysical Health of Working Parents – Are There Differences Between Women and Men?

Radni sati, konflikt radne i obiteljske uloge i psihofizičko zdravlje zaposlenih roditelja – postoje li razlike između žena i muškaraca?

Author(s): Darja Maslić Seršić,Ivana Kurtović / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 1/2020

Keywords: work hours; work – family conflict; time-based work; family conflict; psychophysical health; working parents; gender; sex;

The aim of this study was to examine the mechanisms that lie beneath the relationship between work hours and the psychophysical health of working parents and to examine whether sex moderates this relationship. The proposed model, which included mediatory effects of the two dimensions of the Work-family conflict (Time-based and Strain-based conflict), was tested on a convenience sample of working parents (n = 377; 55.2 % mothers). Subjective psychophysical health was measured by Musculoskeletal Symptoms Scale (Barton et al., 1995) and General Health Questionnaire – 12 (Goldberg, 1988). Work-family conflict (due to a spillover of the work domain in the family domain) was measured by Time-based and Strain-based scales (Carlson, Kacmar, & Williams, 2000). The results showed that work hours have a significant independent contribution in predicting both subscales of Work – family conflict. Furthermore, gender moderated the relationship between work hours and participants’ health. Work hours are significantly positively correlated with self-assessed psychophysical health of mothers, but not fathers. This correlation is entirely mediated by Strain-based conflict. Contrary to expectations, Time-based conflict does not mediate the relationship between work hours and the health of working mothers.

Impact of Organizational Characteristics, CEO Education, and Firm Ownership on the Adoption and Effectiveness of High Performance Work System in Vietnam

Impact of Organizational Characteristics, CEO Education, and Firm Ownership on the Adoption and Effectiveness of High Performance Work System in Vietnam

Author(s): Tran Huy Phuong / Language(s): English / Issue: 21/2020

Keywords: high performance work system; organizational characteristics; firm ownership; adoption; Vietnam;

In spite of tremendous research on the relationship between HPWS and firm performance, a paucity of them has examined the antecedent of HPWS. Data were collected from CEOs and HRM managers from 311 firms including state-owned, private and foreign invested enterprises. Multiple regression analysis suggests that (1) firm characteristics (firm capital, firm age) and CEO’s education were positively associated with the adoption of Ability-Motivation-Opportunity bundles of HPWS, (2) HPWS were positively associated with firm performance, and (3) ownership style moderates the relationship between HPWS and firm performance in different manners. Theoretical and practical implications were discussed.

CONGRUENCE BETWEEN REAL AND IDEAL LEADER. WHAT MATTERS MORE IN TODAY’S WORK WORLD: ETHICAL BEHAVIOR OF A LEADER OR PRODUCTIVITY?

CONGRUENCE BETWEEN REAL AND IDEAL LEADER. WHAT MATTERS MORE IN TODAY’S WORK WORLD: ETHICAL BEHAVIOR OF A LEADER OR PRODUCTIVITY?

Author(s): Aurelija Stelmokienė,Auksė Endriulaitienė / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2020

Keywords: congruence; real leader; ideal leader; ethical behaviour; productivity; perception;

This paper draws from follower centric perspective and implicit leadership theories to explore factors that predict higher congruence between real and ideal leader in followers’ view. It also examines the impact of sociodemographic and organizational characteristics to the prediction of perceived congruence. 267 Lithuanian employees from private and public organizations participated in internet-based survey. Followers filled up a questionnaire about their direct middle supervisors: they rated fit between ideal and real leader, leader’s ethical behaviour and productivity of work unit. Results indicate that both ethical behaviour of a leader and productivity are important predictors of employees’ perceived congruence between real and ideal leader. However, ethical behaviour has significantly higher standardized beta coefficients in comparison with productivity in public sector organizations. Therefore, the context needs to be considered when making leaders’ selection and promotion decisions based on follower preferences. Important insights for leadership research are also discussed in the paper.

THE IMPACT OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND INTERCULTURAL COMPETENCE ON WORK PRODUCTIVITY OF VOLUNTEERS IN RESPECT TO AGE AND LENGTH IN VOLUNTEERING

Author(s): Ingrida Vinickytė,Rita Bendaravičienė,Jolita Vveinhardt / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2020

Keywords: volunteer; volunteering; emotional intelligence; intercultural competence; work productivity;

The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of emotional intelligence and intercultural competence on the effectiveness of volunteer work with respect to the age and length of volunteering. 174 volunteers who have volunteered or are volunteering under the Erasmus + European Voluntary Service participated in the survey. The results of the study are presented as answers to the following problematic questions: Does higher emotional intelligence and higher intercultural competence increase the effectiveness of volunteer work? Does intercultural competence increase due to higher emotional intelligence? Do older volunteers have higher intercultural competence and higher emotional intelligence? Do volunteers with greater volunteering experience have higher intercultural competence and emotional intelligence? Do people with longer volunteering experience at the European Voluntary Service (EVS) have a higher level of intercultural competence and emotional intelligence? Based on the results of the study, factors that have a significant impact on the productivity of internationally active volunteers were identified.

Hindrance Stressors, Career Plateau, Work-Related Depression and Emotional Exhaustion among Flight Attendants

Hindrance Stressors, Career Plateau, Work-Related Depression and Emotional Exhaustion among Flight Attendants

Hindrance Stressors, Career Plateau, Work-Related Depression and Emotional Exhaustion among Flight Attendants

Author(s): Homayoun Pasha Safavı,Mona Bouzarı,Taraneh Foroutan / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2021

Keywords: Hindrance Stressors; Career Plateau; Work-Related Depression; Emotional Exhaustion; Flight Attendants;

Purpose – The present study bears numbers of prospective contributions by pointing to neglected issues in hospitality management and service literature. Specifically, it applied job demands-resources model to test a conceptual model to check whether career plateau (CP) acts as a mediator in the relation between hindrance stressors (HSs), work-related depression (WRD) and emotional exhaustion (EE). Design/methodology/approach – Data was collected from flight attendants in public and private airlines in Iran via their direct supervisors through judgmental sampling technique. One-hundred ninety-two flight attendants participated in the study. Structural equation modelingwas applied for data analysis. Findings – The results confirm that HSs are significantly associated with CP and CP is directly related to WRD and EE. The results similarly proved that CP acts as a mediator in the aforementioned relationships. Discussion – This study connects HSs on WRD and EE through CP. Inspecting the mediation impacts of CP in this relation seems noteworthy since it is largely overlooked in the relevant service literature. The results showed that HSs enhance CP. Moreover, the existence of CP elevates strain. That is, plateaued employees feel ignored by their organizations, and this boosts their feeling of WRD and EE. Implications – Managers should help crew members in understanding their responsibilities through establishing a clear job description consisting of clear responsibilities, tasks and goals. Managers should take proactive approaches to decrease job demands and deal with plateaued employees. They should put enough effort into changing these employees’ perceptions and negative attitudes toward their job.

Multisectoral cooperation in cases of domestic violence from the point of view of the social work centre

Author(s): Dragana Čvorović,Božidar B. Otašević,Milena M. Vranešević / Language(s): English,Serbian / Issue: 3/2021

Keywords: multisectoral cooperation;domestic violence;social work centre;Law on Prevention of Domestic Violence;

The aim of this research was to determine the current state of multisectoral cooperation between the competent state bodies and institutions provided by the Law on Prevention of Domestic Violence, recognized as a basis for preventing domestic violence and providing protection and support to victims. The empirical findings were obtained by surveying 43 employees in the social work centres in the Srem administrative district, who act in cases of domestic violence. After data collection, they had to be organized, so the statistical method of descriptive statistics was applied and for that purpose, the statistical software package SPSS was used (ver. 20). The results of the research showed the efficiency of mutual cooperation between the competent authorities, but also the necessity of continuing the work on the reform of the above-mentioned legal text.

Labor Code, approved by law no. 7961/1995, is the basic legal act that regulates labor relations in the Republic of Albania. It is drafted based on the generally accepted norms of international law and respects all international conventions ratified by the Republic of Albania. The Labor Code is a legal act that continuously reflects the changes due to the globalization process, ILO requirements and recommendations, dynamics in labor relations and labor market needs. Amendments made to the Labor Code by law no. 136/2015 have created the necessary legislative ground for flexible working arrangements. These amendments define the rules for drafting the home employment contract, named Telework. Through them, the Albanian legislation stipulates that working conditions for employees working at home can not be less favorable, compared to other employees who perform the same or comparable work. For these employees, the employer must take measures to facilitate the telework, by making available, installing and maintaining the necessary computer equipment to perform it, except when the employee, who performs the telework, uses personal equipment. The employer is obliged to prevent the isolation of the employees, creating conditions for them to meet with other employees. For the telework contract,the Albanian Labor Code does not require the application of the provisions governing the weekly working and rest time, overtime hours, work on public holidays and night work. This contract does not provide for the treatment of the right to compensation for difficulties at work. The provision in the Labor Code which recognizes the right of the Council of Ministers to provide special rules for employees working at home, has created the legislative support ground for the continuous regulation of labor relations and the flexible labor market in Albania. This provision facilitated coping with the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. Telework during this period affected the reduction of costs and expenses for businesses. Especially in the services sector, telework is gaining more and more ground in the Albanian labor market. Smart working and hybrid work conditioned initially by the situation created by Covid-19 are now considered as a trend that will prevail employment relations in the banking sector, call centers and services provided by IT companies.

SELECTED LEGISLATIVE INSTRUMENTS OF FAMILY POLICY SUPPORTING WORK–LIFE BALANCE: A COMPARISON OF ITALY AND THE SLOVAK REPUBLIC

SELECTED LEGISLATIVE INSTRUMENTS OF FAMILY POLICY SUPPORTING WORK–LIFE BALANCE: A COMPARISON OF ITALY AND THE SLOVAK REPUBLIC

SELECTED LEGISLATIVE INSTRUMENTS OF FAMILY POLICY SUPPORTING WORK–LIFE BALANCE: A COMPARISON OF ITALY AND THE SLOVAK REPUBLIC

Author(s): Vladimíra Žofčinová,Andrea Košíková / Language(s): English / Issue: 39/2022

Keywords: Labour law; Public administration; Work balance;

Achieving an optimal work–life balance has been a policy objective of the European Union for many years. Despite progress in this reconciliation, inequalities in the labour market and in gender equality still persist. It should be emphasized that we are not just talking about inequalities in the private sector, the issue of reconciling family and working life is also relevant in local government conditions, and it also affects private and public sector employees who are responsible for families. In the context of European social and legal culture, the legislature, by means of family policy, not excluding legislative measures taken by labour legislation, creates the conditions for workers – women and men caring for children and other dependants – to ensure that they are not subject to economic and social instability. In this study, we analyse the minimum standards of Directive 2019/1158 on work–life balance for parents and carers, focusing on the institutes of maternity, paternity and parental leave. Comparatively, we examine the extent to which the Slovak Republic has adopted legislative measures of family policy with the legislation of Italy.

Legal Regulation of Remote Work in Slovakia and the Covid-19 Pandemic

Legal Regulation of Remote Work in Slovakia and the Covid-19 Pandemic

Legal Regulation of Remote Work in Slovakia and the Covid-19 Pandemic

Author(s): Martin Bulla / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2021

Keywords: home work; telework; remote work; place of work; right to disconnect; covid-19; workplace privacy;

This paper aims to examine the development of the legal regulation of remote working arrangements in Slovak labour law and to determine the main legal issues that keep this type of work from being more widely utilised in practice. To this end, the article analyses the applicable provisions of the Slovak Labour code, as they developed throughout the years, in particular the changes implemented in connection with the Covid-19n pandemic. It also investigates other applicable sources of law, as well as case law and relevant literature. The main issues identified by the article that need to be addressed by the legislator, involve three areas: (i.) formulation of the place of work in the employment agreement, (ii.) working time and rest periods of remote workers and (iii.) the range of supervisory powers of the employer vis-à-vis remote workers. The author argues that the legislator ought to create more favourable and clear legal conditions for remote work and to enable this type of work to be performed under all contractual types recognised by Slovak labour law, not just in the (standard) employment relationship.

EVALUATION OF INNOVATIVE TEACHING AND LEARNING STRATEGIES IN SCIENCE EDUCATION: COLLABORATIVE WORK AND PEER ASSESSMENT

Author(s): Lúcia Pombo,Mário Talaia / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2012

Keywords: collaborative work; peer assessment; science education;

This paper presents the design of the curricular unit "Nature Integrated Sciences I” for the Course of Primary School Teachers of the 1st cycle of Higher Education at the University of Aveiro (Portugal). This curricular unit integrates a holistic approach to science based on the STS movement, where the activities promote collaborative work, such as study visits, field trips, laboratory classes, public presentations of works, discussion activities and self-and peer-assessment. It is intended to evaluate innovative teaching and learning strategies by hearing the students’ opinions about the proposed activities, their attitudes towards collaborative work and peer assessment. A questionnaire was applied online during the currilucar unit and the results show that most students felt that the teaching methodology was appropriate, group activities were relevant and assessment strategies contributed to the development of the targeted skills and building of knowledge.

The Memory of War and the Historical Memory of Vichy Work Camps in Tunisia through Albert Memmi’s The Pillar of Salt

The Memory of War and the Historical Memory of Vichy Work Camps in Tunisia through Albert Memmi’s The Pillar of Salt

Author(s): Habiba Boumlik / Language(s): English / Issue: 4/2020

Keywords: Vichy Work Camps; Tunisia; Albert Memmi; The Pillar of Salt; Tunisian Jews;

The effects of Vichy anti-Jewish laws in North Africa were particularly devastating in Tunisia. Approximately 5,000 Tunisian Jewish men were detained and sent to forced labor camps run by the Germans and the Italians. The present paper analyzes Albert Memmi’s descriptions in his 1953 novel, The Pillar of Salt, of arbitrary arrests, spoliations, raids, ransoming, and requisitions for forced labor in work camps. A Tunisian Jew, Memmi included his recollections of a labor camp in the final part of his novel. The book gives a precise idea of the climate established by the Nazis and its disastrous consequences for Tunisian Jews. Internees were given unnecessary chores, humiliated, and provoked to retributive behavior. Hygiene, food, and living conditions were deplorable.
