Full textIn previous decades, the perception of Japan¿s employment practices has been strongly intertwined with its economic fortunes. From the 1970s, Japan¿s employment practices came to be seen as one of the cornerstones of its economic success. However, this perception changed, albeit with a substantial delay, when the economy proved incapable of returning to its former path of growth after the `bubble¿ burst at the end of the 1980s. Like so many of its economic institutions, the employment practices became the subject of substantial criticism in a debate on the revitalisation of Japan¿s economy. This study takes its position within this debate by discussing the likelihood, character, and economic consequences of change. Environmental changes, like the ageing of the population and the substantial decrease in economic growth, require Japanese firms to adapt their human resource management. However, the embeddedness of national practices limits the scope of firms to make these adjustments; and change is determined by the dialectics between their strategies and existing practices. The firm, as an institution, thus experiences the impact of both the embedded employment practices and the economic impact of environmental changes. Accordingly, it is at the centre of this study. Theories of the firm are used to discuss the contribution of employment practices on efficiency, capabilities, and competitive strength. Case-studies from four different industries ¿ automobile, electronics, construction, and retailing ¿ describe the adaptations made by individual firms. Subsequently, these findings constitute the basis for a discussion of industry-specific employment practices and provide an answer to whether developments such as the rise in performance-based pay and labour mobility have altered the logic of Japanese employment practices.
Soliveres, Anne-Victoria. "Le salarié dans la compétition." Thesis, Paris 2, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018PA020032.
Full textCompetition and competitiveness should not be exclusively reviewed through the prism of companies. In the manner of economic matter, labour law was able to seize these notions, in order to establish a protective regulatory framework of the employees’ interests. Nonetheless, its intervention is not unvarying, and manages to adapt itself to the encountered competitions. Firstly, it can be found before the conclusion of the contract of employment, and brings into opposition job seekers against one another. It is marked by a disequilibrium and a patent inequality which labour law seeks to level. In the second type of competition, companies wishing to preserve and uplift their competitiveness meet. However, employees’ rights ought not to be sacrificed on the altar of performance. There again, an intervention of labour law is required. Thus, in each of those competitions, legal safeguards are erected, permitting the access for current or soon-to-be employed workers, to suitable guarantees
Bock, Sébastien. "Transatlantic employment performances and job polarization." Thesis, Paris 1, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020PA01E062.
Full textThis thesis explores the implications of technological change and labor taxation for employment performances in France and the U.S. over the past four decades. Chapter 1 delves into transatlantic employment performances. It measures the extent to which cross-country discrepancies in socio-demographic and occupational structures account for the transatlantic employment gap over time. The French employment deficit does not only reflect a disfunctioning labor market but also the occupational reallocation of labor that affects the employment prospects and participation decisions of specific socio-demographic groups. Chapter 2 investigates the determinants of unskilled employment outcomes in France between 1982 and 2008. Technological change and labor taxation policies are pivotal to grasp the deterioration of unskilled employment. The reallocation of unskilled labor from routine jobs towards manual jobs induced by technological change is partly obstructed by the presence of a nonmarket sector. Labor taxation interacts with technological change by distorting the value of unskilled jobs with respect to non-market work. Chapter 3 studies the implications of routine-biased technological shocks for aggregate fluctuations between 1989 and 2017 in the U.S. It assesses the effects of technological shocks by estimating a structural VAR mode! with long-run exclusion and sign restrictions. Routine-biased technology shocks account for the recessionary effects of technological shocks on hours worked. These shocks appear quantitatively relevant and generate recognizable business cycle fluctuations

Full textAfter a phase of strong growth, followed by a phase of broadening the basis for extensive growth, the French hypermarket is going through a deep crisis and has entered a phase of erosion of its market share since the end of the 1990s. Many factors can explain this decline, but intense price competition from competing formats remains the main cause.Contrary to the traditional dominant hypermarket model based on price competition and the offer of a minimum of services due to a generalized and systematic self-service, a new qualitative hypermarket model seems to be emerging in the food retail sector in order to regain lost ground. If it maintains the appeal of the customers with low prices via the self-service floors/sectors, considered as an unavoidable constraint, it is now also based on the differentiation by the quality of service through the assisted sales floors/sectors. The success of this model therefore requires an increase in the level of professionalism of the workers.While the central hypotheses of human capital and internal labor market theories suggest that employee professionalism has a positive effect on the firm economic performance, this direct link in the case of hypermarkets is rarely verified empirically. In order to empirically demonstrate this link, we have analyzed econometrically, using a Cobb-Douglas production function, the relationship between business performance and the degree of professionalism of the workers in the different sectors (1043) of 119 hypermarkets of a French retailer firm.The results of the empirical analysis are rich and original and will be of interest to distribution economics specialists as well as to managers. The data mainly show the undeniably positive link between the professionalism and the economic performance in the different commercial sectors, and this, paradoxically, whether it is self-service or assisted sales. They thus support the hypothesis that increasing service quality can be a profitable strategy for hypermarkets. They also show the existence of an alternative model of HRM where hypermarket employees accumulate more human capital and are more qualified. These results are important. They should lead to an incentive for retail players to invest in the professionalization of their workforce and confirm the interest in offering employees, within the framework of an active internal market, prospects for career development and their remuneration. They are also an argument, for the leaders of these groups, in favor of a strategy of "upmarket through quality" as a way out of the current crisis of the classic hypermarket model. Finally, this thesis provides researchers a relevant methodological approach and highlights numerous contributions to theoretical and empirical fields, as well as managerial recommendations for retail firms

CAPES - Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior
Uma das metas do milênio para o Brasil é a melhora dos indicadores educacionais. Embora nas últimas duas décadas o acesso à educação em todos os níveis tenha aumentado, a qualidade desse ensino ainda é considerada baixa segundo as avaliações de desempenho internas e externas. Nesse contexto, insere-se a educação profissional e tecnológica (EPT) de nível médio. Este tipo de formação pode ser realizada integrada ou subsequente ao ensino regular, assumindo, na maioria das vezes, um caráter de transição para as universidades, no primeiro caso, e, para o mercado de trabalho, no segundo. Nessa dissertação, a EPT será caracterizada quanto à composição de gênero, cor, modalidades de ensino, dependência administrativa, unidades da federação, oferta, demanda e número de residentes e não residentes, por meio da base de dados do Censo Escolar de 2007 a 2012. Estima-se, com base no método de pareamento com escore de propensão, o efeito médio da EPT sobre o desempenho escolar e a inserção produtiva para os tratados, ou melhor, para aqueles que optaram pela EPT. O desempenho escolar é medido pela proficiência nas provas de Ciências da Natureza, Ciências Humanas, Linguagem e Códigos, Matemática e Redação presentes na avaliação do ENEM em 2009 e 2010. A inserção produtiva é medida pelas probabilidades de estar trabalhando e de trabalhar na área para a qual se preparou. Essas variáveis foram criadas a partir do questionário socioeconômico do ENEM de 2009 e 2010. Pelo método de pareamento do “vizinho mais próximo”, o efeito médio de realizar EPT para os alunos que realizaram, em relação aos alunos da escola regular, é positivo e significativo nas notas de Linguagens e Códigos e Redação, respectivamente, de 4,48 e 13,44 pontos no escore padronizados. O método de estratificação confirma o efeito médio positivo, respectivamente, de 4,28 e 13,08 . O efeito médio de realizar EPT para aqueles que realizaram sobre a inserção produtiva está entre 1,2 e 1,3 pontos percentuais para a probabilidade de trabalhar e de 17 pontos percentuais para a probabilidade de trabalhar em área para o qual se preparou. Esses resultados referem-se ao modelo completo para 2009.
One of the millennium goals for Brazil is improving educational outcomes. Although the access to education at all levels has increased in the last two decades, the quality of Brazilian education is still considered low by internal and external evaluations. In this context, it is important to discuss the role of the vocational and technical education and training (VTET) of middle level. This type of training can be integrated or made subsequent to regular education. It the first case, it is characterized as a transition to the university, while in the second case, it improves the access to the labor market. In this dissertation, we explore the Censo Escolar database from years 2007 to 2012, and ENEM database, from years 2009-2010, both collected by Inep. This study evaluates the effects of technical and vocational education and training (TVET) on the mid-level proficiency and productive insertion of the student. The results of the estimates with propensity score matching show an average treatment effect between 4 and 13.5 points in the standardized score of Language and Writing, respectively. There are also significant effects on the productive insertion, on average, there is an increase between 1.2 and 1.3 percentage points in the probability of being employed, and 17 percentage points in the probability of being employed in their area of technical education and training, for TVET students comparing to other students.
Pillon, Jean-Marie. "Les rendements du chômage : mesures du travail et travail de mesure à Pôle emploi." Thesis, Paris 10, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA100041/document.
Full textThis thesis deals with unemployment policies and focuses on the mutual influence of management accountants and counselors in the French one stop shop for job seekers, “Pôle emploi”. Our work tests the hypothesis that administration reforms have changed the role of statistics and accounting in policies. Based on observation of the counselors’ work and on interviews with executives of Pôle Emploi, this work sheds light on the mechanisms through which the central State measures its results on the labor market. Counselors undergo two different pressures: one derived from performance targets set by the State and the other from the increasing number of job seekers. The thesis analyzes the Arts and crafts developed by counselors to solve these tensions. From this perspective, the counselors’ work looks like a categorization activity enabling them to sort the 5.5 million unemployed in accordance with three separate scales: the labor law, the labor market, and the institutional solutions to improve employability. Counselors then experience contradictions between individualized activation policies and the macro-economic nature of the current number of unemployed. Thus, our work dissects the gap between great politicians’ addresses and civil servants’ feeling of powerlessness

Full textThe beginning of the 20th century was a time of various labor market conflicts. There were strikes, demonstrations, riots and agitation meetings. These conflicts took place in a society where the labor movement began to organize itself in trade unions in order to gain political influence and influence over their work situation. As a result, the labor movement ended up in confrontations with the environment, authorities and employers. The main purpose of the essay is to investigate the connection between class affiliation in an identity perspective and the emergence of contentious repertoires in the early 20th century trade union organizational efforts. The essay is based on theories of Contentious Politics Studies. The investigated material is archives of trade unions at Bergslagernas railways in Åmål. Four different contentious politics have been identified. These are: 1. Agitation and political mobilization 1908 - 1911, 2. Oskar Lundström's dismissal 1909, 2. The engine driver strike in 1919 and 4. The great railway strike in 1922. The result of the essay is that the contentious repertoires are developed and refined over time. The claim making are more clearly formulated and contentious performances together with visual culture strengthen the political identity. Contentious repertoires, contentious performances and political identities thereby create meaning in class affiliation.

In this study, I tried to find the association between academic interest of university freshman and labor market performance. This study combined College Entrance Examination Data and administration data of labor insurance from Ministry of Labor to acquire academic interest and labor market performance of the same individual. I separated the samples into three groups- students whose major matched their academic interest, students whose major did not match their academic interest, and students with no academic interest. I estimated the payoff of academic interest for each department. The empirical result could not confirm that students whose major matched their academic interest received higher wage. However, I found that the preceding impact was weaker in the fields or departments which are traditionally preferred by parents. This phenomenon suggested that parents’ preference might play an important role in the decision of degree choice.

This study explores the factors that influence the performance in employments of technological college graduates. Here we talk about their learning experiences include academic achievement, the experience in learning second specialty, part-time job experiences on- and off-campus, student organizational activities and acquisition of technician certificates. We compare their learning experience with their wage level, job satisfaction and occupational classification. The objective of this study was to:(a) understand the current situation of the technological college graduates’ lobar market outcomes;(b) discuss the relationships between the learning experiences in college and the labor market performance of technological college graduates. This study analysis the "Taiwan Integrated Postsecondary Education Database" surveyed the graduates at 2002 school year in Taiwan by the secondary database. Research panel meter 2,361, public school graduates 564 people, private school graduates 1,797 people, females sample 1,854 people, male sample of 507 people. In this study, statistical analysis included descriptive statistics and multiple hierarchical regression analysis. The major findings were summarized as follows: I. The more public technological college graduate’s profession relates his employment content, the higher wage levels he gets, but the job satisfaction and occupational classification is not significant. II. The level of salary and job satisfaction are not differ in University of Science and Technology graduates and technical college graduates, but in the occupational classification of the former is higher than the latter. III. There is no impact of gender at the job satisfaction, but male graduates’ wage level or occupational classifications’ effect is higher than female graduates’. IV. There are not impact of wage level, job satisfaction and occupational classification at Parents'' education level. V. Although the average hours of work per week positively affects one’s wage level, it is negative correlation one’s job satisfaction. it shows no correlation with occupational classification. VI. The more technological college graduate’s profession relates his employment content, the higher wage levels, job satisfaction and occupational classification he gets. VII. There is no significant in the one’s labor market performance in academic achievement, the experience in learning second specialty, part-time job experiences on- and off-campus during ones learning period in technological graduate. VIII. The more attend club activity of technological colleges gets the higher job satisfaction. Has one’s been a club leader was not significantly related to the labor market performance during colleges in technological graduates. IX. Acquisition of class B or acquisition of class A technician certificates positively affects job satisfaction only, it doesn’t matter with wage level, while acquisition of class C technician certificates cause the contrary affects. Merely acquisition of class C technician certificates turns in lower wage level than those acquire nothing, but it doesn’t affect their job satisfaction. Finally, based on these results, this study also provides some suggestions on experience-learning, labor market performance as well as future research.

Full textThis master’s thesis assesses the underlying dynamics in the cognitive enhancement phenomenon observed in Western contemporary universities and the social context in which it emerges. Detaching our perspective from the analysis of healthcare and law fields of study as well as from the usual quantitative, clinical, atheoretical and over all moralizing approach, we aimed to explore the use of psychotropic substances in humanities and social science students, to better understand the rationales behind those behaviours and to situate them in their broader context. Thirteen humanities and social science students were interviewed regarding their past or present use of psychotropics as cognitive enhancers in academia. Results suggest a gap between their practices and those of the healthcare and law students, in that a wider variety of psychotropics are used as enhancers ; it also shows that the use of cognitive enhancers parts from the medical logic as well as that of addiction. First, the students’ practices are often oriented by an existential disorientation and it seems that their resort to psychotropics assists a quest for control, understanding and stability in themselves and in a world perceived as perpetually unstable. Furthermore, those practices serve a wish to satisfy a range of uncertain and threatening conditions related to external demands as apprehended, more than to treat any medical condition regarding cognition. We believe that the underlying rationales behind the humanities and social science university students use of psychotropics fit into the performance oriented contemporary discourse and injunctions in the sense that their individual suffering exposes the limits of what society expects from them.

Full textIn my thesis, I use compelling research designs to address important public policy issues. My first chapter estimates the causal impact of the party allegiance (Republican or Democratic) of U.S. governors on labor market outcomes. I match gubernatorial elections with March CPS data for income years 1977 to 2008. Using a regression discontinuity design, I find that Democratic governors are associated with lower average individual earnings. I provide evidence that this is driven by a change in workforce composition following an expansion in employment of workers with low and medium earnings. I also find that Democratic governors cause a reduction in the racial earnings gap between black and white workers through an increase in the annual hours worked by blacks relative to whites. My second chapter analyze how shootings in high schools affect schools and students using data from shooting databases, school report cards, and the Common Core of Data. The chapter is co-written with Dongwoo Kim. We examine schools’ test scores, enrollment, and number of teachers, as well as graduation, attendance, and suspension rates at schools that experienced a shooting, employing a difference-in-differences strategy that uses other high schools in the same district as the comparison group. Our findings suggest that homicidal shootings significantly decrease the enrollment of students in Grade 9, and reduce test scores in math and English. We find no statistically significant effect for suicidal shootings on any outcome variables of interest. Using student-level data from California, we confirm that some of the effects on student performance occur as a result of students remaining enrolled and not only due to changes in student body composition. My third chapter investigates the impact of school mobile phone policy on student performance. The chapter is co-written with Richard Murphy. Combining a unique dataset on autonomous mobile phone policies from a survey of schools in four cities in England with administrative data, we investigate the impact of imposing a mobile phone ban on student performance. Our results indicate an improvement in student results after a school bans the use of mobile phones; this suggests that mobile phones distract learning and imposing a ban limits this problem.
