Download or read book L avenir du droit de la sant et de la s curit du travail dans le contexte de la mondialisation The Future of Occupational Health and Safety Law in the Context of Globalization written by Katherine Lippel and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: French Abstract: Le droit de la santé et de la sécurité du travail régit la prévention des accidents du travail et les maladies professionnelles ainsi que la réparation des lésions professionnelles. Au Canada comme ailleurs, les lois dans ce domaine sont parmi les plus anciennes interventions législatives en matière de droit du travail et de sécurité sociale, remontant à la fin du dix-neuvième siècle pour ce qui concerne les lois de prévention, et au début du vingtième siècle en matière de réparation.Cet article tracera l'évolution de ces interventions jusqu'à nos jours, pour s'interroger sur les forces et les faiblesses des régimes de prévention et de réparation des lésions professionnelles en vigueur maintenant au Canada. Dans un contexte de marchés du travail mondialisés, où la sous-traitance et l'externalisation des risques ainsi que le travail précaire sont généralisés, on constate la multiplication des défis pour les régimes d'inspection et de prévention chargés de la protection de la santé des travailleuses et travailleurs. Du côté de la réparation, il y a lieu d'examiner nos lois régissant l'indemnisation pour déterminer jusqu'à quel point elles répondent toujours aux besoins des personnes dont la santé est atteinte en raison de leur travail.La santé et la sécurité du travail est principalement de juridiction provinciale, autant au niveau de la prévention qu'au niveau de la réparation, le Code cana- dien du travail régissant uniquement la protection de la santé des personnes œuvrant en entreprises de compétence fédérale, soit 8% de la population qui travaille au Canada. Cet article présen- tera les enjeux clefs pour une meilleure protection des personnes qui travaillent, et identifiera les approches incontour- nables pour assurer la modernisation des lois de prévention et de réparation de manière à protéger adéquatement la main d'œuvre du vingt-et-unième siècle. En matière de prévention, à l'instar du législateur australien, les législateurs canadiens devront chercher à élargir la portée des lois en matière de santé et sécurité du travail, en écartant les définitions actuelles des termes « employeur » et «travailleur » afin d'éviter des débats stériles cherchant à caractériser le contrat de travail. Au niveau de la réparation, l'article présentera une liste d'éléments qui permettront une protection plus adéquate pour les personnes dont la santé est atteinte en raison de leur travail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette thèse s'applique à explorer dans quelle mesure et par quels mécanismes lamondialisation, au travers de ses différentes composantes, impacte la santé des travailleurseuropéens. Dans une première partie, nous exposons les conséquences socio-économiques de cephénomène. Dans une deuxième partie, nous montrons que l'exposition concurrentielleinternationale constitue un facteur de risque pour la santé des travailleurs non qualifiés. Lesfacteurs individuels et organisationnels sont néanmoins les plus à même d'expliquer la prévalencede troubles physiques et mentaux chez l'ensemble des travailleurs. La mondialisation impliqueaussi de nouvelles pratiques organisationnelles liées à l'internationalisation des firmes, une autrefacette de la mondialisation. Nous soulignons que les travailleurs doivent ainsi trouver lesressources nécessaires pour rester attractifs dans ce monde en perpétuelle évolution. Dans unetroisième partie, nous exposons que la mondialisation favorise le développement des activités deservices dans les pays industrialisés. En parallèle, l'organisation de type "lean" est mise en placedans ces secteurs et la pression concurrentielle s'accroit. Ces changements impactent les conditionsde réalisation du travail. Dans ce contexte, la santé se trouve dégradée par des facteurs de risqueen évolution, parmi eux l'intensité du travail liées aux relations interpersonnelles. Enfin, nousmontrons que la Responsabilité Sociale de l'Entreprise apparait comme une solution dont lesentreprises peuvent s'emparer pour améliorer la santé de leurs travailleurs et par conséquent, leurperformance sociale et financière.

Book Accounting for Culture

Download or read book Accounting for Culture written by Caroline Andrew and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2005-03-30 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many scholars, practitioners, and policy-makers in the cultural sector argue that Canadian cultural policy is at a crossroads: that the environment for cultural policy-making has evolved substantially and that traditional rationales for state intervention no longer apply. The concept of cultural citizenship is a relative newcomer to the cultural policy landscape, and offers a potentially compelling alternative rationale for government intervention in the cultural sector. Likewise, the articulation and use of cultural indicators and of governance concepts are also new arrivals, emerging as potentially powerful tools for policy and program development. Accounting for Culture is a unique collection of essays from leading Canadian and international scholars that critically examines cultural citizenship, cultural indicators, and governance in the context of evolving cultural practices and cultural policy-making. It will be of great interest to scholars of cultural policy, communications, cultural studies, and public administration alike.

Book excerpt: Managing Complexity is the first book that clearly defines the concept of Complexity, explains how Complexity can be measured and tuned, and describes the seven key features of Complex Systems: ConnectivityAutonomyEmergencyNonequilibriumNon-linearitySelf-organisationCo-evolution The thesis of the book is that complexity of the environment in which we work and live offers new opportunities and that the best strategy for surviving and prospering under conditions of complexity is to develop adaptability to perpetually changing conditions. An effective method for designing adaptability into business processes using multi-agent technology is presented and illustrated by several extensive examples, including adaptive, real-time scheduling of taxis, see-going tankers, road transport, supply chains, railway trains, production processes and swarms of small space satellites. Additional case studies include adaptive servicing of the International Space Station; adaptive processing of design changes of large structures such as wings of the largest airliner in the world; dynamic data mining, knowledge discovery and distributed semantic processing. Finally, the book provides a foretaste of the next generation of complex issues, notably, The Internet of Things, Smart Cities, Digital Enterprises and Smart Logistics.

Book Congregations in Europe

Download or read book Congregations in Europe written by Christophe Monnot and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-14 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume describes and maps congregations of Christian confessions and denominations, as well as groups with Jewish, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu, and various other spiritual faiths, in different European countries. Consisting of three parts, it presents concrete sociological studies addressing how established and not established, old and new congregations of various faiths create a new kind of religious diversity at the country level; how religious congregations are challenged and thrive in large cities; and how religious congregations change in the 21st century. The book enlightens by its descriptive analysis and the theoretical questions it raises concerning the religious transformations happening all over Europe. It addresses issues of religious diversity in the cities of Europe by presenting large studies conducted in cities such as Barcelona in Spain, and Aarhus in Denmark. By means of large-scale censuses taken in areas such as North Rhine-Westphalia in Germany and in countries like Switzerland and Italy, the book shows how the historically established churches restructure their congregations and activities. It clarifies for the new gatherers where and how a new diversity of religious congregations is in the process of being established. Finally, the book covers two important topical issues: pluralisation and secularisation. It provides new data on religious diversity, painting a new picture of secularisation: the impact and structural consequences of the long-term decrease of membership in the established churches.

Book Connecting Histories of Education

Download or read book Connecting Histories of Education written by Barnita Bagchi and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of education in the modern world is a history of transnational and cross-cultural influence. This collection explores those influences in (post) colonial and indigenous education across different geographical contexts. The authors emphasize how local actors constructed their own adaptation of colonialism, identity, and autonomy, creating a multi-centric and entangled history of modern education. In both formal as well as informal aspects, they demonstrate that transnational and cross-cultural exchanges in education have been characterized by appropriation, re-contextualization, and hybridization, thereby rejecting traditional notions of colonial education as an export of pre-existing metropolitan educational systems.
