Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro contiene los rasgos fundamentales de los estados contables desde una perspectiva global y asimismo práctica, pues a la vez que se exponen los regulados actualmente por las normas contables españolas e internacionales, incluye aquellos otros que de forma voluntaria pueden elaborarse. Se parte de los tradicionales balance de situación y cuenta de pérdidas y ganancias, para analizar progresivamente los estados de origen y aplicación de fondos en circulante y tesorería (estado de flujos de efectivo), así como los de valor añadido y de cambos. Se ha incorporado también aquella información de carácter social y medioambiental que, actualmente, ha alcanzado gran protagonismo tanto por parte de los organismos internacionales como por numerosas multinacionales. La idea subyacente es que, en este tipo de informes, aun cuando el objeto es (o parece ser) muy diferente al económico, la metodología utilizada tanto en su elaboración como verificación es contable. En definitiva, el lector podrá tener una idea más exacta de qué es lo que podemos saber de una empresa a través de su información contable-financiera.
Download or read book Employers Agencies and Immigration written by Anna Triandafyllidou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the performance by immigrants of domestic and care work in European households, this book places the employer centre-stage, examining the role of the employer and his or her agents in securing the balance between work, family and welfare needs, as well as investigating both who the employers are and the nature of their relationships with migrant workers. With attention to the dynamics of inequality, as class, ethnicity and gender become intertwined in a location that is at once home and workplace, this volume is organised into sections that deal with the subjectivities of employers and their relationships with their employees in the home; the re-organisation of welfare and care arrangements at state level; and the wider area of migrant domestic and care work, with the transformation of the au pair scheme. Bringing together the latest empirical work from across Europe, Employers, Agencies and Immigration will appeal to social scientists with interests in migration, ethnic and class relations, immigrant labour and domestic work and the sociology of the family.

Download or read book Gender and Well Being written by Paloma de Villota and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provisioning for basic human needs is done in three main kind of institutions: the familial household; the commercial enterprise selling goods and services; the institutions of the Welfare State that provide education, medical care and other goods and personal services to all or to some specific groups of citizens in need. The purpose of this book is to study the interplay of these institutions and their impact on well-being, and to analyze key policies and measures that have been implemented in European countries. Institutions determine labour demand (men and women are hired by the institutions of the Welfare State or by market providers of care), the possibilities of consumption (wages earned can be used to buy goods and services only if such goods and services are provided by the market) and allocate people's time, in particular women's time, between paid work and unpaid domestic production and provision of care, shaping both the gender relations and time use of people of both sexes. The proper balance of these institutions is a prerequisite of well-being both of the care givers and of the care receivers, and also for satisfactory gender relations. The chapters in this book focus on the following sub-topics: gender and welfare regimes; gender, well-being and the provision of care in the family and the household; and gender and well-being in the labour market. They emphasise the interdependence of social and labour market policies in the context of fundamental changes in both working patterns (the increase in female labour-force participation rates) and social needs (including population ageing) and demonstrate that we need a more integrated approach to welfare policy which takes account not only of basic welfare entitlements, but also the need for supportive forms of service provision and employment regulation.
