The book addresses how work became so central to our systems of citizenship and social recognition by considering the French context in the long transition between the 1789 and 1848 revolutions and focusing on a specific 'fragment' of history in the early 1830s marked by a pandemic crisis and the first consequences of industrialisation.
Opslagsværk om vikarers retsstilling!Den 30. maj 2013 vedtog Folketinget forslag til lov om vikarers retsstilling ved udsendelse af et vikarbureau (vikarloven) med ikrafttræden 1. juli 2013. Vikarloven implementerer Europa-Parlamentets og Rådets direktiv af 19. november 2008 om vikararbejde. Denne bog gennemgår vikarloven i detaljer og inddrager EU-forarbejder, lovbemærkninger og folketingsbesvarelser samt relevant praksis fra før lovens ikrafttræden.En grundig introduktion til retsområdet giver desuden et omfattende indblik i vikarlovens sammenhæng med anden lovgivning, ligesom samspillet med de kollektive overenskomster forklares. Nyt i 2. udgave Siden lovens indtræden er der fremkommet omfattende retspraksis på området. Bogen gennemgår den omfattende retspraksis systematisk i forhold til bogens emner. SAGT OM FORRIGE UDGAVE AF BOGEN:“Bogen indeholder nogle gode oversigter over det til vikarloven tilknyttede materiale og de til loven knyttede problemstillinger. Den er også inden for de felter, den behandler, gennemgående velræsoneret. Den hører derfor til på hylden hos dem, der beskæftiger sig seriøst med arbejdsret.” - Uddrag af anmeldelse i Ugeskrift for retsvæsen, nr. 48. MålgruppeBogen er et nyttigt redskab for alle, der i større eller mindre grad beskæftiger sig med vikaransættelser. Det gælder både medarbejdere i HR-afdelinger i offentlige og private virksomheder, medarbejdere i faglige organisationer samt advokater, der skal rådgive medlemmer og klienter samt føre sager vedrørende vikarers retsstilling.Om forfatteren Anne Marie Abrahamson er advokat og partner i Lundgreens afdeling for Ansættelsesret og har mere end 26 års erfaring på området. Hun er specialiseret i arbejds- og ansættelsesret og har i en årrække rådgivet danske og internationale virksomheder inden for alle aspekter af ansættelsesretten.
Konkurrencestaten er et discountsamfund. Det er konklusionen i denne bog om forholdene på arbejdsmarkedet, i velfærden og i uddannelsessystemerne. I konkurrencestaten er det selvforsørgelsen og overlevelsen, der er det centrale. Ikke den enestående præstation. Velfærdsprofessionelle beskriver arbejdsforhold, der sætter lav pris over høj kvalitet, også selvom det går ud over borgernes velfærd. Og eget helbred. Elever fortæller om en 'frygtkultur' og et karakterræs i en skole, hvor det er vigtigere at bestå end at forstå. I discountsamfundet er det vigtigere at passere end at præstere. At præsentere noget, der ser godt ud, snarere end at gøre godt. At makke ret, snarere end at gøre det rigtige. Individet presses derfor til at gå på kompromis med faglige og etiske standarder og til at tilsidesætte både sin egen og den andens menneskelighed. Men, der ydes også modstand - fra alle dem som i hverdagen bliver udsat for discountsamfundets umenneskelige krav om selvafvikling.

Does (AI) exceed that of human performance on more and more tasks? If it is truth, will some of human jobs to be disappeared? (AI) will be instead of human some simple jobs, then unemployment rate to the low skillful and low educated workers will be increased. Whether (AI) will be raised either production or performance or unemployment to bring human job market more advantages or more disadvantages? Can robtics workers bring what positive or negative influences to office working environment ?Artificial intelligence had been developed to be applied to any service , working aspects, e.g. auto-driven cars. In the future, it may replace manual transport drivers in possible, e.g. non-manual driven tram, train, bus, taxi etc. public transport service. In factory warehouse environment, it can replace some workers to deliver any goods in warehouse. In shopping center service environment, it can replace security to do patrol jobs. In restaurant, it can replace waiter to deliver food to client's table. So, AI will assist or replace any service workers to do any kinds of simple jobs in any working environment in possible future.Final chapter, I shall explain why one organization has excellent facility management strategy, which can help it to prolong or expand long time to stay on mature life cycle stage in possible.
In 1989, Kimberlé Crenshaw coined the term ¿intersectionality¿ to describe the interdependent and overlapping systems of discrimination and disadvantage that result from the interconnected nature of social categorizations. These categories include, but are not limited to, disability, gender identity, nationality, race, and socioeconomic class. In recent years, we have witnessed increased societal interest in the notion of equal economic, political, and social rights. This has commonly manifested in a desire for equality of opportunity (i.e., social justice). This book applies an intersectional approach to examine a specific facet of inequality ¿ namely, the presence and magnitude of wage discrimination in the U.S. labor market. This book accomplishes several objectives. It introduces intersectional analysis for readers who are unfamiliar with the topic. The book identifies intersectional wage discrimination for a large number of worker groups that are defined by multiple intersecting identities (i.e., the personal characteristics of Hispanic ethnicity, nativity, race, and sex). It also documents variation in wage differentials both between worker groups (i.e., contemporaneously) and within groups (i.e., intertemporally). Finally, given the policy relevance of our topic, it is fitting that the final chapter is devoted to corresponding conclusions.
As South Sudan has grown, the roadways inside of it have grown with it. It is a well-known fact that more people die every year in fatal car accidents. The resulting bereavement on families and clans can be devastating. In this book, Professor Madhel Malek Agei explores the processes that accompany the loss of life - from the cultural experience of death to the law that governs us. The death of loved ones can divide people, but Bloodwealth compensation can serve to promote harmony and bring people together.
This book introduces the concept of 'melting labour' and provides a real depiction of how workers lose control over their lives and experience precariousness in labour markets.
This book aims to empirically and theoretically study how income inequality and demographic change affected fiscal policy and subsequent economic growth globally in the past decades from four perspectives. First, it briefly reviews the dynamic changes of income sources that contribute to inequality. Second, it distinguishes between income inequality induced by differences in labor productivity and income inequality induced by differences in capital income. Third, it briefly reviews the dynamic changes of tax composition in the age of demographic change. Last, it discusses the impacts of changes in age structure on the extent of taxes on income relative to expenditure. This book offers a comprehensive discussion to understand and analyze the reason, performance and challenge of fiscal policy and economic growth from the perspective of inequality and demographics.In addition to students, teachers and researchers in the areas of equity, demography, political economy and economic policy, this book is also of great interest to policy makers, planners and non-government agencies who are concerned with understanding and addressing poverty-related and aging-related issues in developed and developing countries.
"An essential anthology on the most effective ways to organize a labor movement for environmental justice, from leading organizers in the field"--
Why the United States lags behind other industrialized countries in sharing the benefits of innovation with workers and how we can remedy the problem.The United States has too many low-quality, low-wage jobs. Every country has its share, but those in the United States are especially poorly paid and often without benefits. Meanwhile, overall productivity increases steadily and new technology has transformed large parts of the economy, enhancing the skills and paychecks of higher paid knowledge workers. What’s wrong with this picture? Why have so many workers benefited so little from decades of growth? The Work of the Future shows that technology is neither the problem nor the solution. We can build better jobs if we create institutions that leverage technological innovation and also support workers though long cycles of technological transformation.Building on findings from the multiyear MIT Task Force on the Work of the Future, the book argues that we must foster institutional innovations that complement technological change. Skills programs that emphasize work-based and hybrid learning (in person and online), for example, empower workers to become and remain productive in a continuously evolving workplace. Industries fueled by new technology that augments workers can supply good jobs, and federal investment in R&D can help make these industries worker-friendly. We must act to ensure that the labor market of the future offers benefits, opportunity, and a measure of economic security to all.
In diesem Buch werden die gesellschaftlichen Funktionen von Sportvereinen anhand eines breiten Spektrums an empirischen Daten einer vergleichenden Studie näher beleuchtet. Es gibt nur wenige aktuelle Erkenntnisse über die Funktionen von Sportvereinen und ihr Potenzial, die öffentliche Gesundheit, den sozialen Zusammenhalt und die demokratische Teilhabe durch freiwilliges Engagement zu fördern und damit zum Gemeinwohl in den europäischen Gesellschaften beizutragen. Die meisten der vorhandenen Studien sind länderspezifisch und erlauben daher keine Vergleiche aus einer länderübergreifenden Perspektive. Vor diesem Hintergrund hat das Projekt "Social Inclusion and Volunteering in Sports Clubs in Europe" (SIVSCE) vergleichbare Daten und Erkenntnisse in zehn europäischen Ländern gesammelt, analysiert und diskutiert und dieses Wissen an Politiker, Sportfachleute und Freiwillige im Sport in Europa weitergegeben.Das SIVSCE-Projekt enthält vergleichende Daten von Vereinen sowie von Mitgliedern in ausgewählten Sportvereinen. In jedem Länderkapitel werden die vergleichenden Daten aus dem SIVSCE-Projekt in kohärenter Weise zusammengestellt. Insbesondere die Daten der Mitgliederbefragung geben detailliert Auskunft über die Erfüllung der verschiedenen Funktionen von Sportvereinen (z.B. Erweiterung der demokratischen Teilhabe, soziale Integration). Dieses Buch liefert detaillierte Daten zu politischen Fragen, zur Struktur und zum Management von Vereinen sowie zu individuellen Mitgliederbefragungen und ist damit sowohl für Studierende - insbesondere in Sportmanagement-Studiengängen - als auch für Forscher und Praktiker in den Sozial- und Wirtschaftswissenschaften von Nutzen.
Over the past decade, more than 10 billion dollars has been invested in Pittsburgh tech companies, with more than 3.5 billion invested in 2021 alone. With the context of such strong sectoral growth in mind, RAND Corporation researchers set out to characterize the science- and technology-focused (STF) workforce ecosystem in the Pittsburgh region and suggest policy changes and investment opportunities to future-proof the ecosystem. Researchers sought to define STF occupations in a regionally relevant way, characterize the current state of the STF ecosystem, identify barriers and facilitators to participation in the STF ecosystem, and develop strategies to facilitate the STF ecosystem's continued growth. To achieve these goals, the research team used qualitative and quantitative methods. The research team selected Boston and Nashville as peer regions to further contextualize quantitative findings. Researchers found that Pittsburgh has a sizable share of STF employment relative to the United States and to Nashville. However, additional investments and changes to policy can safeguard the region's strengths and support Pittsburgh as a flourishing science and technology hub. Recommendations include improving market conditions to support expansion of the STF workforce; supporting and engaging communities of color and other locally underrepresented groups; building out regionally relevant, data-backed career pathways; and crafting and implementing a regional STF strategy.
