PRIMO experiment: study-action on the dynamics of the creation of new enterprises and jobs in the Social and Solidarity Economy

2016

A research-action was carried out in 2015 and 2016 by the Regional Chamber of the Social and Solidarity Economy (CRESS) of Franche-Comté, accompanied by public partners, scientific and from the field of support, with the aim of better understand the dynamics of the creation of SSE enterprises in the regions, identified by the criterion of employment. The results of the survey component, obtained through the Catalyse® method (see http://www.acokima.org), make it possible to establish a typology of primary-employer structures. In particular, they show that the ability of a territory to "generate" new employers in the ESS is primarily linked to the existing voluntary sector and to the possibil…

In search of a theoretical framework of factors influencing work and life balance

2021

Work and life balance (WLB) has gained noticeable attention amid the pandemic. Even before the outbreak of COVID-19, the increasing pace of life encouraged the investigation of individual and organisational aspects of WLB. Physically and mentally healthy people help society develop and grow. Health issues caused by work and life imbalance lead to dissatisfaction with both work and life, which, in turn, leads to higher stress and stress-related illnesses, for instance, burnout. From the organisational point of view, WLB is a factor in analysing the efficiency of an enterprise. The consequences of a work-life imbalance are intentional or unintentional absence, high employee turnover, low prod…

Preliminary investigations on indirect competition among Italian employers’ associations, and the relevant effects on collective bargaining

2022

Le associazioni dei datori di lavoro sono attori importanti per il sistema delle relazioni industriali e della contrattazione collettiva. I datori di lavoro e i sindacati in genere negoziano gli standard di lavoro in termini di salari e condizioni di lavoro per conto rispettivamente delle aziende associate e dei dipendenti. Sebbene la maggior parte della letteratura sulle relazioni industriali si sia concentrata principalmente sulla forza associativa e sulla densità associativa delle associazioni dei datori di lavoro, in questa pubblicazione a cura di Michele Faioli e Silvio Bologna, gli autori si discostano da questa prospettiva e si concentrano sul funzionamento e sulla governance, ovvero…

Labour Market Policies and Recruitment in Europe and Italy

2017

Over the last few years, most studies and labour market policies have focused on the competence of people seeking employment. Few studies have tackled the issue from the point of view of employers and how policy might affect the personnel recruitment. The aim of this article is to try to understand the impact of labour policy on the processes involved in seeking personnel, with specific reference to business organizations. After examining the strategic, organisational and environmental variables that affect the personnel recruitment, the study focuses on analysing active and passive labour policies in Europe and Italy. The results that emerge highlight the fact that labour policy affects ce…

Recruitment through migrant social networks from Latvia to the United Kingdom: Motivations, processes and developments

2015

A burgeoning body of literature exists in relation to the role of social networks in connecting migrant workers with employment opportunities, particularly in lower wage jobs. This evidence points to social networks being an attractive recruitment channel from the perspective of both migrants seeking employment and employers seeking employees. This analysis presents a wide breadth of original material, which examines recruitment through social networks from the perspective of both migrants and employers. This includes data drawn from an extensive mixed methods approach involving a novel online survey of Latvian migrants in the UK and face-to-face interviews with British low-wage employers. …

Regards sur la formation professionnelle continue

2004

La formation professionnelle est rarement abordée du point de vue de la personne qui se forme. Pourquoi et comment des salariés se décident-ils à suivre une formation financée par leur employeur ? De nombreux témoignages recueillis dans dix-sept entreprises mettent en évidence la persistance de certaines inégalités au détriment des femmes : une moindre diversité des stages, une plus grande proportion d'actions de courte durée et peu diplômantes, un moindre accès à la formation notamment pour le personnel ouvrier, mais aussi un manque de propositions et d'informations et, un certain oubli des contraintes familiales dans l'organisation des stages.

Brand extensions in the platform countries of Asia – Effects of fit, order of market entry and involvement

2012

More and more Western companies understand that Asian markets offer great opportunities to export goods and services. In addition many investment approaches made to Asian markets take place by entering such markets via so-called platform countries (for example Hong Kong and Singapore), as they serve as a bridge to the Asian market and offer an interesting learning base, with consumers cultural behavior being essentially Asian but with strong Westernized influences. As brand extension research has proved to be of major importance for international companies, we examine the effects of fit, order of market entry and involvement on brand extension evaluations in these platform countries. Althou…

Factors contributing brand attitude in advergames: Entertainment and irritation

2012

The main contribution of this article is to offer new insights into the antecedents of brand attitude in an advergaming context, focusing on entertainment and irritation as its main drivers. Also, the indirect effect of intrusiveness and congruence on brand attitude is analyzed. A structured questionnaire was completed by a sample of 100 undergraduate and postgraduate students after playing to a real casual advergame. The results show that entertainment is the main driver of brand attitude although irritation also exerts a significant effect on brand attitude due to perceived intrusiveness that, in turn, is determined by incongruence. The study provides useful managerial implications for co…
