Nuevas herramientas y nuevas ideas para los responsables de recursos humanos. Validez estructural y predictiva del cuestionario de satisfacción ponde…
2013
One of the fundamental tasks for an Human Resource Management (HRM) practitioner consists in designing a reward system that can be broadly understood and can influence the attitudes and, subsequently, the behavior of individuals to permit achievement of organizational objectives. To do so, appropriate tools are necessary to allow key actions to be identified in terms of motivating employees; thereby, avoiding opportunistic costs derived from allocating resources needed to close the gap in employee satisfaction, with regard to non-priority factors for workers in satisfying their own personal needs. This article, thus, presents a dual assessment scale consisting of 44 items, categorized into …
Oral plus vaginal alpha-lipoic acid in women at risk for preterm delivery
2018
Objective: The etiology of preterm labor is multifactorial. An inflammatory response is always involved with the activation of NF-kB that determines synthesis and release of inflammatory molecules, implicated in fetal membrane activation, cervical modifications, abdominal pain and spontaneous uterine contractions. There is a close relationship between preterm birth and cervical shortening in the second quarter of pregnancy. We evaluated the benefits of alpha-lipoic acid administration on women considered at risk of preterm delivery due to the presence of symptoms (pelvic pain and uterine contractions) or reduced cervical length. Patients and Methods: This prospective observational study was…

Do Men and Women Differ When Purchasing Private Label Goods?
2014
In the context of shopping goods, this paper analyzes the key variables in men and women when they have to face private label purchase decision: attitude towards private label, value consciousness, brand consciousness, involvement with the product and private label purchase intention. The moderating role of gender in the relationship between those variables is also analyzed. On a sample of 433 individuals, and considering two different shopping goods, results showed differences between men and women in all the variables, except in the value consciousness. Furthermore, due to a multigroup analysis technique, we found more differences between the variables affecting PL purchase intention. Acc…
Private label food products: Consumer perception and distribution strategies
2022
Food Products Private Label PL, are foods produced by the food industries on order of food distribution companies. Their characteristic is that they are similar to industrial brands but are marketed under the name of the distribution company. Over time they have spread to countries with high per capita income, so much so that today they have become an established product in the food market. Today the PL makes it possible to overcome the criticalities that small agricultural businesses have, which cannot relate to the large-scale retail trade. The PL allow the survival of the company and the permanence of the man in the rural environment. The aim of this research was to analyze the benefits …
Capacidades y mujer emprendedora
2010
Este artículo muestra la incorporación de la mujer a la formación de capital humano, su situación laboral y su situación como directiva en España, y propone un conjunto de teorías o enfoques que contribuyen al examen de la situación de la mujer. Por otra parte examina la literatura de referencia sobre los aspectos políticos y de concepción de la mujer en los países capitalistas, así como sus condiciones laborales en relación con la equidad (dimensión ética y moral) y la productividad (dimensión económica). Distinguir ambas dimensiones clarifica las políticas públicas y de empresa que conviene adoptar. Fernando.Peris@uv.es; Domingo.Ribeiro@uv.es
Educators and activists: educating for life through work in work integration enterprises
2018
Este artículo se centra en el derecho a la educación para personas que viven en contextos de vulnerabilidad, en sintonía pero diferente a la aproximación de Escudero: en primer lugar, es una mirada sobre la educación no de jóvenes sino de personas adultas, muchas de ellas con trayectorias educativas truncadas, y todas ellas tras haber pasado por situaciones vitales que bien pueden calificarse de marginación y exclusión. En segundo lugar, ofrece una mirada a la práctica educativa en un contexto no escolar, sino productivo, ya que pone el foco de atención sobre el aprendizaje, tanto intencional como informal, que tiene lugar en empresas de inserción. En tercer lugar, nuestra perspectiva es la…

POEMS: A Case Study of an Italian Wine-Producing Firm
2006
Over the last decade, researchers paid much attention to concepts such as Design for Environment, Extended Producer Responsibility, Responsible Chain Management, and Eco-design. Many management tools and standards (such as EMAS, ISO 14001, LCA, EPD, Ecolabel) have been developed to support companies in the evaluation and management of their environmental performance and to pursue continual environmental improvement. The more recent development of the aforesaid fields looks at interorganizational environmental management. Such an approach can complement the more traditional intraorganizational corporate environmental management approaches and tools. A typical example of this new trend is the…
