Methods: All individuals (N=50,551) who had been hospitalized for schizophrenia, other nonaffective psychosis, or bipolar disorder in Finland between 1988 and 2015 were identified and matched with five randomly selected participants who were the sam…
Crisis económica y condiciones de empleo: diferencias de género y respuesta de las políticas sociales de empleo. Informe SESPAS 2014
2014
ResumenLa crisis económica ha tenido impacto en toda la Unión Europea, pero en España sus consecuencias han sido devastadoras en el mercado laboral, pasando a ser el país de la UE-15 con peores indicadores de empleo. La situación es peor en la población joven, de la cual en 2012 una de cada dos personas está en situación de desempleo, con una tasa algo superior en los hombres (54,4% frente a 51,8% en las mujeres). La reducción del gasto en políticas activas de empleo por punto de tasa de paro en 2012 con respecto a 2007 hará difícil la mejora de los indicadores de empleo. Además, la reducción del gasto en políticas pasivas de empleo producirá un empeoramiento de la salud de la población des…

Entrepreneurship Training and Self-Employment among University Graduates
2012
In economies characterized by low labor demand and high rates of youth unemployment, entrepreneurship training has the potential to enable youth to gain skills and create their own jobs. This paper presents experimental evidence on a new entrepreneurship track that provides business training and personalized coaching to university students in Tunisia. Undergraduates in the final year of licence appliquee were given the opportunity to graduate with a business plan instead of following the standard curriculum. This paper relies on randomized assignment of the entrepreneurship track to identify impacts on labor market outcomes one year after graduation. The analysis finds that the entrepreneur…
Personal Employability and employment outcomes in a university sample: a study before and after COVID-19
2021
[EN] Labour market uncertainty makes difficult to get (and keep) a high-quality job even for graduate students. Moreover, this situation has been worsened due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this study is to test the influence that personal employability has on maintaining (or being able to find a new) high-quality job in a sample of young university graduates that faced the job market crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We focus on the four personal employability dimensions of Fugate et al.’s (2004) model: career identity, personal adaptability, human capital, and social capital. Our hypotheses state that the four dimensions of employability are positively related with employment …
