WORK ACTIVITIES AT INCREASED RISK OF TRAUMATIC INJURIES: AN INTEGRATED PREVENTIVE APPROACH
2022
Included in the scope of workplace safety is that relating to potential accidents, i.e. the harmful consequences for human health crossed with the work environment factor. In the study of the determinism of these accidental events, it is important to achieve a biomechanical balance between two main elements: the human and the work environment (consisting of the physical, chemical and environmental factors, i.e. the equipment and what generates its use). Considering the most recent statistically recorded incidents, our analysis has focused on the accident sphere proper, where an imbalance in the above-mentioned binomial triggers the activation of multiple disciplines that actively and pro-ac…

Biphasic pleural mesothelioma in a electrician working in a railway company: Case report and current trends in mesotheliomas in Italy
2018
Background: Mesothelioma is an aggressive tumour that can involve the pleura, the peritoneum, and sometimes other mesothelia, such as the pericardium and the tunica vaginalis testis. Scientific communities have known for a long time the causal correlation between exposure to asbestos (work related or not) and the onset of the disease (in 75% - 90% of cases) and the increasing number of asbestos-correlated mesotheliomas expected in the next years. Case presentation: The authors present the case of an electrician, 66-year-old man, died for pleural mesothelioma, working in Palermo in the company of the Italian Railways for a period of about 20 years, exposed to asbestos. Frequently he disassem…

Formare alla denuncia pubblica degli abusi nei luoghi di lavoro
2018
La denuncia pubblica degli abusi è una forma molto speciale di controllo organizzativo dalla straordinaria forza di contrasto della corruzione per la qualità delle informazioni che è in grado di fornire e per la capacità di contenere dall’interno gli abusi. In questo articolo vengono presentati i fattori personali, organizzativi, giuridici, sociali, politici e culturali che influenzano le decisioni di denuncia nelle organiz- zazioni e alcune proposte legate alla realizzazione di un programma di formazione alla denuncia pubblica degli abusi. L’autore sostiene che la formazione su materie come queste non dovrebbe proporsi di tradur- re in azione un atto assolutamente straordinario e indesider…
Design and analysis of discrete choice experiments for models with response time

Stato, Tecnologia, Capitale. Una storia europea.
Il lavoro si propone di rintracciare i costituenti storici, ideologici ed operativi del processo di lavoro capitalistico; sino ad arrivare al contemporaneo concetto di meccanizzazione. In quest'ipotesi, muove dalla costruzione politica dello Stato moderno per come si è configurata nell'europa germanica e scandinava, con particolare riguardo alla Frihetstiden svedese e al cameralismo. Infine, prova a verificare sul terreno della fabbrica automobilistica attuale la realizzazione dei presupposti teorici in merito alla manipolazione della forza-lavoro, così come elaborati dai teorici cameralisti; nella misura in cui questi presupposti siano filtrati in modo implicito nella concezione marxiana d…
