Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work is constantly reshaped by technological progress. New ways of production are adopted, markets expand, and societies evolve. But some changes provoke more attention than others, in part due to the vast uncertainty involved in making predictions about the future. The 2019 World Development Report will study how the nature of work is changing as a result of advances in technology today. Technological progress disrupts existing systems. A new social contract is needed to smooth the transition and guard against rising inequality. Significant investments in human capital throughout a person’s lifecycle are vital to this effort. If workers are to stay competitive against machines they need to train or retool existing skills. A social protection system that includes a minimum basic level of protection for workers and citizens can complement new forms of employment. Improved private sector policies to encourage startup activity and competition can help countries compete in the digital age. Governments also need to ensure that firms pay their fair share of taxes, in part to fund this new social contract. The 2019 World Development Report presents an analysis of these issues based upon the available evidence.

Download or read book La tutela legale nei casi di mobbing written by Bartolo Danzi and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-01-02 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lo scopo primario del mobbing è quello di ottenere l'estromissione del lavoratore - vittima dall'ambiente in cui opera professionalmente. Tale estromissione si estrinseca in vari modi: il primo è quello di costringere la vittima a fare trasferimento, attraverso una serie di vessazioni, intimidazioni, procedimenti disciplinari "inventati" ad arte, ed in alcuni casi dopo essere riusciti a convincere la vittima della sua scarsa valenza professionale (attacco all'autostima), portarla addirittura alle dimissioni. L'allontanamento seppur temporaneo dall'ambiente mobbizzante porta il lavoratore mobbizzato a rendersi conto che egli non è affatto ciò che gli altri gli hanno voluto far credere, e che semmai, a questi devono essere addebitate le responsabilità del proprio fallimento professionale. Spesso anche il licenziamento deriva da un'azione mobbizzante del lavoratore e per conseguenze e modalità può assumere gli aspetti dell' ingiuriosità. libro + CD ROM

This book was released on 2019-09 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book discusses how labour law and welfare systems will be affected by the ongoing transformation of work. The first section considers demography from two different perspectives. On the one hand, it focuses on chronic diseases and their impact on work, emphasising the role and the regulation of welfare systems. On the other, attention is given to youth unemployment and to those forms of employment which might have an impact on young people. Section II touches upon the relationship between the environment and industrial relations, while the third part broaches the topic of the impact of technology in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, also known as Industry 4.0. As such, this volume provides an exhaustive picture of the changes currently underway, considering all the aspects which will affect work now and in the future.

Book excerpt: "Transgender Rights packs a surprising amount of information into a small space. Offering spare, tightly executed essays, this slim volume nonetheless succeeds in creating a spectacular, well-researched compendium of the transgender movement." -Law Library Journal Over the past three decades, the transgender movement has gained visibility and achieved significant victories. Discrimination has been prohibited in several states, dozens of municipalities, and more than two hundred private companies, while hate crime laws in eight states have been amended to include gender identity. Yet prejudice and violence against transgender people remain all too common. With analysis from legal and policy experts, activists and advocates, Transgender Rights assesses the movement's achievements, challenges, and opportunities for future action. Examining crucial topics like family law, employment policies, public health, economics, and grassroots organizing, this groundbreaking book is an indispensable resource in the fight for the freedom and equality of those who cross gender boundaries. Moving beyond media representations to grapple with the real lives and issues of transgender people, Transgender Rights will launch a new moment for human rights activism in America.

Download or read book Impresa e lavoro il nuovo bilanciamento nei licenziamenti collettivi written by Marco Gambacciani and published by Roma TrE-Press. This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il saggio affronta il complesso tema dei licenziamenti collettivi nell’ottica del bilanciamento tra i valori dell’impresa e del lavoro. Rispetto alla disciplina previgente gli ultimi interventi di riforma, anche per la necessità di tenere conto dell’interesse pubblico generale e del contesto storico di riferimento, hanno realizzato un nuovo bilanciamento tra le esigenze dell’impresa e gli interessi dei lavoratori. Obiettivo del saggio è quello di verificare se tale nuovo bilanciamento sia più equilibrato di quello garantito fino ad oggi dalla legge n. 223 del 1991 e dalla sua incerta applicazione giurisprudenziale. In quest’ottica e con quest’obiettivo si analizzano quindi i problemi giuridici più rilevanti in materia di licenziamenti collettivi: il problema della causale tra controllo sindacale e controllo giudiziale, la procedura legale semplificata soltanto in parte, l’irrisolta complessità dei criteri di scelta e la riforma delle sanzioni con la progressiva eliminazione della reintegrazione e il problema della congruità degli indennizzi.

Download or read book World Development Report 2016 written by World Bank Group and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital technologies are spreading rapidly, but digital dividends--the broader benefits of faster growth, more jobs, and better services--are not. If more than 40 percent of adults in East Africa pay their utility bills using a mobile phone, why can’t others around the world do the same? If 8 million entrepreneurs in China--one third of them women--can use an e-commerce platform to export goods to 120 countries, why can’t entrepreneurs elsewhere achieve the same global reach? And if India can provide unique digital identification to 1 billion people in five years, and thereby reduce corruption by billions of dollars, why can’t other countries replicate its success? Indeed, what’s holding back countries from realizing the profound and transformational effects that digital technologies are supposed to deliver? Two main reasons. First, nearly 60 percent of the world’s population are still offline and can’t participate in the digital economy in any meaningful way. Second, and more important, the benefits of digital technologies can be offset by growing risks. Startups can disrupt incumbents, but not when vested interests and regulatory uncertainty obstruct competition and the entry of new firms. Employment opportunities may be greater, but not when the labor market is polarized. The internet can be a platform for universal empowerment, but not when it becomes a tool for state control and elite capture. The World Development Report 2016 shows that while the digital revolution has forged ahead, its 'analog complements'--the regulations that promote entry and competition, the skills that enable workers to access and then leverage the new economy, and the institutions that are accountable to citizens--have not kept pace. And when these analog complements to digital investments are absent, the development impact can be disappointing. What, then, should countries do? They should formulate digital development strategies that are much broader than current information and communication technology (ICT) strategies. They should create a policy and institutional environment for technology that fosters the greatest benefits. In short, they need to build a strong analog foundation to deliver digital dividends to everyone, everywhere.
