Job skill discretion and emotion control strategies as antecedents of recovery from work

2014

Recovery from work protects employees’ health and well-being, and therefore it is important to understand its antecedents. The aim of this study conducted among 183 middle-aged participants drawn from the Finnish Jyvaskyla Longitudinal Study of Personality and Social Development was to examine whether job skill discretion and emotion control strategies (emotional rumination and emotional inhibition) are related to psychological aspects of recovery from work (subjective recovery evaluation, psychological detachment and relaxation). The results of hierarchical general linear models confirmed the hypothesis that job skill discretion is positively associated with subjective recovery evaluation …

The relative relationship between education and workplace task discretion: an international comparative perspective

2019

International audience; Through analyses of Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) data, the following study considers the direct and indirect association between education and workplace task discretion in 30 countries. By focusing on cross-national comparison, it considers the ways in which these findings are dependent on both the overall level and the range of task discretion across occupational sectors within a country. Theoretically, individual-agency and critical-institutional hypotheses are compared, two perspectives that provide divergent explanations for the indirect association between education and task discretion. The findings partially support b…

External investigations and disciplinary sanctions against auditors: the impact on audit quality

2015

In this paper, we provide empirical evidence for the impact of disciplinary sanctions imposed on Spanish auditing firms and their engagement partners. The disciplinary sanctions resulted from external investigations, which revealed misapplications of auditing standards. In particular, we evaluate (a) the efficacy of the external supervisory board in identifying low-quality auditors and (b) the effectiveness of the disciplinary system in improving the quality of subsequent statutory audits performed by the sanctioned auditors. We employ two earnings management indicators as proxies for audit quality: loss avoidance through extraordinary items and abnormal accruals. And we compare these measu…

Licenziamento e rideterminazione della sanzione disciplinare nel lavoro pubblico privatizzato

2020

Il contributo, dopo un’analisi della disciplina sanzionatoria del licenziamento invalido nel pubblico impiego, prende in esame il nuovo art. 63, c. 2 bis, del D.lgs. n. 165/2001. La norma, che attribuisce al giudice il potere di rideterminare la sanzione in caso di difetto di proporzionalità, è oggi una peculiarità della disciplina del lavoro pubblico privatizzato. L’Autore ritiene che questa si ponga in controtendenza con le recenti riforme del lavoro in Italia, in quanto recupera importanti spazi alla discrezionalità giudiziale.

Sindacato di legittimità costituzionale e legalità penale: il delicato equilibrio tra ruolo della Corte Costituzionale e discrezionalità del legislat…

2022

The paper intends to focus on the issue of the relationship between the judgment of constitutional legitimacy and the legislator's discretionary power in criminal matters. The Constitutional Court, especially in recent years, has carried out an overall rewriting of criminal law, through rulings that have affected some of the most significant institutions, introducing a substitute regulation for that deliberated by the legislator. To achieve this result, in the name of safeguarding fundamental rights, the Constitutional Court devised new techniques of adjudication, forcing patterns that had already been established in its jurisprudence or proposing new ways of adjudication in incidental proc…

L'interpretazione conforme e i limiti alla discrezionalità del giudice nell'interpretazione della legge

2021

: The essay traces the evolution of constitutional jurisprudence about consistent interpretation of Constitution up to its most recent arrivals, which are still insecure today and burdened with not removed theoretical-reconstructive aporias. An attempt is made to explain the perspective change on the basis that the consistent interpretation of the origins was aimed at innervating the new Constitution in the legal system and at entrenching the constitutional culture in the courts. Subsequently, theoretical, political and factual justifications, combined with both judicial substitution and crisis of politics, have made the judiciary emerge as a “third giant” alongside the legislative and exec…
