Living in the blurry zone : a study of the wellbeing and work-life balance of Finnish SME entrepreneurs

2018

Pienten ja keskisuurten yritysten yrittäjät ovat tärkeä osa Suomen taloutta. Tämän vuoksi heidän hyvinvointiaan sekä työn ja muun elämän tasapainoa on tärkeää tutkia. Liiketoiminta kirjallisuus on perinteisesti tukenut näkemystä, jonka mukaan yrityksen johtaja tukee työntekijöidensä työn ja muun elämän tasapainoa sekä hyvinvointia. Tämä näkemys ei kuitenkaan ota huomioon yrittäjiä, jotka toimivat yrityksiensä johtajina. Entä heidän hyvinvointinsa? Mikä on heidän työn ja muun elämän tasapainon tila? Tämä tutkimus pyrkii vastaamaan muun muassa näihin kysymyksiin. Tutkimukseen osallistui kaksitoista pienten ja keskisuurten yritysten yrittäjää. Nämä yrittäjät toimivat eri toimialoilla ja eri pu…

Working-Time Regimes and Work-Life Balance in Europe

2015

The organization of times and places of work are key elements of working conditions, and define employees’ possibilities for balancing work and other life spheres. This study analyses several aspects of temporal and spatial flexibility, and their associations with employees’ work-life balance. This study separates four dimensions of temporal flexibility and one indicator of spatial flexibility. The dimensions of temporal flexibility are the number of hours worked, when the hours are worked, work-time intensity, and the degree of working-time autonomy. The workplace flexibility indicator is an index of work locations. Work-life balance is analysed with work-hour fit. The analyses were based …

Reflecting on Work Values with Young Unemployed Adults in Finland

2019

In this article, we explore the internal conversations about the work values of young unemployed adults in Finland. We draw on the theoretical concept of internal conversation by Margaret Archer in order to shift the focus from the individual work values to the interplay between subjective concerns and structural circumstances. The data consist of six group interviews conducted among 29 young unemployed adults. We argue that the internal conversations on work values of young unemployed adults constitute five significant concerns: self-realization and opportunity to contribute to society; sufficient income to live independently; social expectations; challenges of finding employment; and unsu…

Does differential iron supply to algae affect Daphnia life history? : An ionome-wide study

2019

The availability of iron (Fe) varies considerably among diet items, as well as ecosystems. Availability of Fe has also changed due to anthropogenic environmental changes in oceanic as well as inland ecosystems. We know little about its role in the nutrition of ecologically important consumers, particularly in inland ecosystems. Physiological studies in several taxa indicate marked effects of dietary Fe on oogenesis. We predicted that differential Fe supply to algae will impact algal Fe concentration with consequences on the life history of the freshwater grazer, Daphnia magna. We found that algal Fe concentration increased with Fe supply, but did not affect algal growth, indicating that the…
