The Concept of Integrated Profit From Contractual Relationship. The Case of Transactions Between Agricultural Producers’ Groups And Agri-Food Sector
2017
Koncepcja zintegrowanej korzyści umożliwia holistyczną analizę celów realizowanych w ramach kontraktów między rolnikami lub organizacjami producentów rolnych a rynkiem przetwórstwa rolno-spożywczego. Wykorzystanym podejściem była teoria kontraktów. Jako cel główny artykułu przyjęto identyfikację form pionowej koordynacji transakcji między grupami producentów rolnych a rynkiem rolno-spożywczym. Celem szczegółowym było zaś rozpoznanie mechanizmu cenowego w umowach i analiza przy wykorzystaniu koncepcji zintegrowanej korzyści (rozważania zawężono do obszaru koordynacji). Przedmiotem badań były kontrakty podpisane w 2014 roku między grupami producentów działającymi na rynku drobiu a pierwszym o…
El consorcio contractual de I+D+i. Un instrumento de cooperación científica, tecnológica e industrial
2021
La cooperación con otras entidades es una de las vías seguidas por las empresas para optimizar sus productos o procesos; es decir, para llevar a cabo sus actividades de I+D+i (investigación científica, desarrollo tecnológico e innovación industrial). Comporta la formación de un consorcio con universidades, organismos de investigación y/u otras empresas, cuya misión será ejecutar conjuntamente un proyecto de I+D y, en muchos casos, explotar sus resultados de manera concertada. Dichos consorcios de I+D+i han ido cobrando relevancia en las últimas décadas, avivados por los programas de ayudas públicas que incentivan su creación. Sin embargo, a pesar de ser numerosos los autores que los han est…
Are you a Good Employee or Simply a Good Guy? Infl?uence Costs and Contract Design.
2012
We develop a principal-agent model with a moral hazard problem in which the principal has access to a hard signal (the level of output) and a soft signal (the supervision signal) about the agent?s level of effort. We show that the agent?'s ability to manipulate the soft signal increases the cost of implementing the effcient equilibrium, leading to wage compression when the infl?uence cost is privately incurred by the agent. When manipulation activities negatively affect the agent?s productivity through the level of output, the design of infl?uence-free contracts that deter manipulation may lead to high-powered incentives. This result implies that high-productivity workers face incentive sch…
The workers' value of the remaining employment contract duration
2005
We introduce and apply a method for estimating workers' marginal willingness to pay for job attributes employing data on job search activity. Worker's willingness to pay for the remaining duration of the employment contract is derived. We provide evidence that workers attach substantial value to the remaining contract duration. A temporary worker with a remaining contract of six months is willing to pay about 10% of the monthly wage to increase the contract by one month.This discussion paper has resulted in a publication in Economica, 2008, 75(297), 116-39.
El control en las empresas de trabajo asociado. Revisión crítica, desde una perspectiva de agencia, de los principales mecanismos de control, y análi…
2002
This paper analyses the repercussions of the institutional aspects of co-operatives in the decision making process, in arranging the incentive system for members, and discretionary behaviour among management. From a comparative analysis of capitalistic companies, the paper studies the nature of the hierarchical relationships present in co-operatives and reviews the control mechanisms available to them, with special emphasis on the board of directors. At the same time, lines of action are proposed that favour efficient control and reconcile the requirements of co-operative enterprises with their attributes as institutions.
Il lavoro nel turismo
2019
Il contributo offre una breve disamina delle principali caratteristiche del mercato del lavoro nel settore del turismo. A partire dall’elemento della stagionalità, che si traduce in esigenze di flessibilità e dinamicità del mercato, si individuano le tipologie contrattuali cui prevalentemente si suole far ricorso. Con l’ausilio di risultanze empiriche, desumibili dalle principali banche dati a disposizione, viene restituito un quadro di modelli organizzativi prevalenti (il contratto di lavoro a tempo determinato, il part-time, il contratto di apprendistato, il lavoro intermittente); in cui, dunque, i contratti diversi dai “classici” modelli a tempo indeterminato e/o tempo pieno costituiscon…
Antenarratives in Ongoing Strategic Change : Using the Story Index to Capture Daunting and Optimistic Futures
2018
Strategic organizational change is a complex, future-oriented phenomenon that is critical for any organization. Traditional means of inquiry have struggled with the difficulty of capturing the future; thus, the methods for managing things to come remain scarce. In this chapter, we contribute to managing strategic change, and thereby the future of the organization, by developing the Story Index (SIX) method. The method facilitates a better understanding of how organizational change takes shape in the discursive reality before materializing in concrete terms. SIX is an analytical process combining antenarratives and narrative rationality to reveal the emerging meanings and rationales of chang…

Agile contracts and pricing models in public procurements of information systems. Process of public information system procurement has been overlooked in information system science. Especially empirical study of contract types and pricing models that support agile development has been neglected. The aim of this research is to fill this research gap. The research question is how agile contracts and pricing models can be applied in public procurements of information systems. This research investigates what ways and practices for implementing agile contracts and pricing models exist in public sector. The approach of this research is qualitative. The research question will be answered by analyz…

These recommendations focus on preventing obtaining a low rate of absorption of EU funds allocated to Romania in the multiannual financial framework 2014-2020 , thus preventing wastage prospects of economic and social modernization , that these funds offer.
