Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to study the perceived job quality and job satisfaction among third-sector employees and compare job quality in the third, public and private sector. Design/methodology/approach – The study is based on the quality of work life (QWL) survey data gathered by Statistics Finland. The QWL data are complemented with data set collected among third-sector employees. In the sector comparisons percentage shares were used to compare different dimensions of job quality between the sectors. Regression analysis was used to control the structural labour market differences between the sectors. Findings – The results show that job quality in the third sector differs substantially from that in both the public and private sectors. Employees in the third sector are less satisfied with their jobs than others. They perceive their work more autonomous than others. Compared to private-sector employees, third-sector employees perceive their jobs as less insecure. They also report more intensity and qualitative insecurity than employees in other sectors. Research limitations/implications – The sample consist only trade union members. The generalisability of results to non-unionized employees may be limited. Originality/value – Previously it has been stated that third-sector employees enjoy greater job satisfaction due to intrinsic work benefits related to non-profit work. There is, however, small number of empirical studies trying to compare systematically job quality between the sectors. The present analysis contradicts the previous findings of higher job satisfaction in the third sector.

Abstract:
There has during a rapid growth of third sector organizations (TSOs) in the third world during the 1990s. Such growth has occurred during a period of severe cutbacks in state investment as well as rapid globalization of trade. Social activists have often organized TSOs in these countries as an alternative to private and public organizations. However the question of how leaders and managers of these TSOs sustain their activities remains important. Their dilemma of help is the focus of this study.
Through a study of strategy formation in three third sector organizations in the third world, this study focuses on how TSOs can be sustainable yet effective change agents. It develops a typology of TSOs with particular attention to type of third sector activity (operating, support, community), type of organizational form (Grassroots initiatives, Grassroots Organizations, Grassroots Federations, Development Support Organizations and International Development Support Organizations) and dominant strategy approach (domain, distinctiveness, and design). This study argues that attention to these three aspects needs to be complemented by exploring the processes through which strategies form in these organizations.
Accordingly the strategy process in three TSOs in South India was examined, in particular the origin of the strategy, tactics of consensus, and interests of participants. Examining the strategy process in TSOs revealed that strategies originated in intent or event, promoters' consensus-tactics were conceived or improvised and participant's interests were fixed or shifting.
These findings on strategy process show varied origins, interests and consensus tactics in TSOs. They also seem to be associated with particular capacities in these organizations to perform their chosen activities, as well as with changes in mission. The study concludes with a discussion of the significance of these findings and a call for bridging the literatures on good management and effective social change, for further researching capacity building in TSOs, and encouraging initiatives for cross sector learning.

Full text
Abstract:
This project studies the strategies used by Third Sector Organisations (TSOs) in campaigning for the reform of UK child poverty policy. This qualitative study combines expert interviews with policy workers in campaigning TSOs with textual analysis of TSO submissions to a 2007/08 Work and Pensions Select Committee inquiry into child poverty. Analysis applies a resource dependence perspective combined with a social fields approach, to show how the values of key resources TSOs possess and require for their work vary depending on whether they use an ‘insider’ or ‘outsider’ campaign strategy. The research takes a multi-level approach to understanding campaigning, from the endogenous attributes of TSOs, through their connections with other groups within the sector, to their interactions with their wider environment. This allows a systematic and holistic understanding of the functioning of this complex marketplace.

Merridew, Tanya Suzanne. "Third sector politics in the new local governance." Thesis, University of Sheffield, 1999. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/10227/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores the operation of third sector politics within the changing context of local governance. Throughout the history of urban policy the concept of community has fonned a recurrent, if fluctuating theme (Eisenschitz and Gough, 1993; Raco, 1998a). Recent literature has tended to assume the emergence of a new local governance characterised by restructured local political relations. A related strand of thinking suggests that within this new context, the community role has been elevated. The recent turn to community seems to present a vision in which public participation is something of a panacea to secure successful and lasting urban regeneration and more effective local governance. The tendency within the literature has been to focus on new institutional configurations rather than the detailed operation of the new arrangements. This thesis seeks to assess in detail how the third sector is engaging in processes of local governance and the mechanisms that support this. The research focuses on the fine-grain of spatial and institutional representation of community interests and the fonn and function of community politics. It develops this focus through a specific concern with the operation of community politics and the constitution of governance roles through two in-depth case studies conducted in the North-East. These provide contrasting examples of third sector organisation and coordination, thus highlighting the locally distinctive nature of third sector politics. The thesis concludes that attempts at specifying changing local governance and models of community engagement have tended to ignore the complexity of community politics. Therefore, it is argued that future theoretical developments need to address these complexities in order to capture any change in the fonn and nature of local political relations in general and third sector politics in particular.

Full text
Abstract:
The potential of governance through partnerships and the third sector to solve state and market failures has been taken up internationally. Yet this solution poses theoretical and practical challenges because these instruments further complicate an already complex field to action concerned with social problems. While the third sector and governance are much studied, approaches that connect their roles in welfare governance to broader theoretical issues are underdeveloped. This thesis seeks to fill this gap by developing a systems-theoretical, relational approach that adopts the complexity and cultural turns and that was developed in a dialogue between. ethnography and theoretical inquiry. The case study involved a Local Strategic Partnership in an English district in a period dominated by Third Way • policies. The theoretical inquiry draws on Luhmannian systems theory and Jessop's strategic-relational approach. Overall, the thesis explores, empirically and theoretically, discourses and semantics, descriptions and self-descriptions, policies, network and organisational features, decisions and undecidabilities, paradoxes and contingencies and the self-potentiating complexity of selections. In particular, it considers the variety of first- and second-order observations of failure and their role as a stimulus to continuing attempts at governance despite the recurrent experience of failure. In this way, the thesis explores the inevitably complex unfolding dialectic between two sides of a fractally structured part-whole paradox in societies characterized by functional differentiation and network governance. This paradox has two sides. The state is but one institutional ensemble in a complex society that is nonetheless charged with governing the whole society; and the third sector is expected to represent the side of 'society' to the state and to deliver state objectives. Each side has its own fractal complexities, reinforced through their interaction. The thesis concludes by highlighting the analytical potential of this approach to understanding the complexities of governance in and through the third sector.

Charalampous, Ioanna. "Business crime in Greece : employment offences in third sector companies." Thesis, Middlesex University, 2012. http://eprints.mdx.ac.uk/9270/.

Full text
Abstract:
In current times, with business as the focal point of society in which economic strain is prevalent, it is important to be able to investigate the dysfunction and deviance that can arise as a result, since their effects will be felt in all aspects of modern social life. Upon this assumption, the current research investigates the influence of business crime, with a specific focus on the offences committed by businesses against their workforce over employment legislation. This research is delimited to companies of the third sector of the economy, commerce and financial services in particular. Entrepreneurship, business practice, employment legislation, the regulatory system and economic strain and crisis are all examined in order to investigate the phenomenon in Greece. The fieldwork consists of secondary statistical analysis of reports from the relevant regulatory offices and qualitative interviews with four target groups: employees who are victims of business crime at the work place, inspectors, trade union members and business managers and owners. The analysis follows a macro-meso-micro focus of analysis in order to provide a spherical illustration of all factors influencing deviance. Power imbalances within the capitalist system of production influencing social structures and imbalances in relevant relations of agency agents and the state, community and society are significant analytical elements of business deviance. Unpaid enforced overtime and illegal employment constitute the two prevailing offences and create a work environment of insecurity and informality. Structural factors like state-promoted entrepreneurship, changes in legislation, decreased collectivity and economic strain play an important role as do low reporting and conviction rates. The role of the state is a key element linking the levels of analysis and its further functions are instrumental in shaping legislation, systems of control, and perceptions of harm and impact of crime. Additionally, the state can act as a facilitator to deviance by participation in criminality for profit. The conclusions of this study can enhance an interest in business crime, modern criminological research in Greece and can additionally inform policy and practice.

Abstract:
There are well over 200,000 registered charities in the UK, creating a crowded and unique marketplace. There is a strong sense amongst supporters of what it means to be a charity; a compassionate, ethical, and honest organisation that raises money for the good of others. Alongside these core values however, there are other key factors that can distinguish one charity from another. It is paramount that a charity works hard to develop and convey these factors through strategic marketing, communications and design (as a business would) in order to effectively deliver its mission, values and beliefs to target audiences. ~'.., • • .,... •• i Street League is a national charity organisation whose mission is to transform thelives of disadvantaged young people through the power of sport. The organisation uses football in particular as a tool by which to engage with individuals from disadvantaged and difficult backgrounds. Through a structured curriculum of football and employment support, Street , League then progress participants from these unique programmes, directly on to further education, training or employment opportunities. In 2009, Street League sought to improve and expand services nationally however, in order to support their operation, they needed to remain attractive to potential service users while communicating their message and successes to existing funders, partners, employees and the media. In addition to attracting new participants onto programmes, Street League wanted to improve the sustainment of relationships with existing participants for a duration long enough to make a difference to their lifestyles and social behaviour. The charity felt it was important that they responded to the needs of the young people they worked with by communicating in new, exciting and accessible ways. The charity understood that a strong brand identity and innovatively designed communication material could support their business goals, but possessed neither the design skills nor the resources necessary to develop, execute and evaluate complex integrated communication applications and marketing strategy. The charity required an internal understanding of marketing, communications and design and how it could contribute to individual elements of the business in addition to wider organisational objectives. The Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) between Street League and Glasgow Caledonian University was established in order to facilitate and manage the internal and external resources necessary to develop an integrated communications and marketing strategy for the charity. As the 'KTP Associate' and Street Leagues' Communications and Marketing Manager, the author was responsible for the management of the partnership, the coordination of the two year project and the delivery of all strategic output.

Abstract:
The United Nations Human Rights Council has a powerful role to play in addressing the worst forms of child labour. Accountability mechanisms such as the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) – which work to support Member States to improve their human rights situation – are therefore widely seen as important opportunities to advocate for change. Ahead of Nepal’s third UPR cycle in 2021, the CLARISSA programme met with eight UN Permanent Missions to present recommendations addressing the exploitation of children within Nepal’s adult entertainment sector. This spotlight story shares the programme’s experience in advocacting within this process. It also highlights their approach of providing decision makers with recommendations to the Government of Nepal that were underpinned by the importance of integrating a participatory, adaptive and child-centred approach.

Vlaicu, Razvan, and Philip Keefer. Employee Trust and Performance Constraints in Public Sector Organizations. Inter-American Development Bank, September 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0004456.

Full text
Abstract:
Theory suggests that employee trust is key to productivity in organizations, but empirical evidence documenting links between trust and constraints on performance is scarce. This paper analyzes self-collected data on public sector employees from eighteen Latin American countries and finds that individual-level trust is relevant to three types of performance factors. First, high-trust employees are more willing to collaborate and share information with coworkers and are more supportive of technological innovation. Second, high-trust respondents have different perceptions of organizational constraints: they are less concerned with low staff quality or lack of discretion to innovate, and more concerned with staff shortages. Third, trust in coworkers is associated with stronger mission motivation. Instrumental variable strategies based on the transmission of trust through social and professional channels account for potential sources of endogeneity. A survey experiment on preferences for social distancing policies provides further evidence that trust enhances mission motivation: employee policy preferences align better with the implied government policy when their trust in the public sector is higher.

Abstract:
Achieving net zero carbon emissions requires the engagement of the finance system to address climate considerations in more strategic ways. In December 2019, the Society hosted a discussion forum, Financing net zero: how can investment meet the climate challenge, where geographers met with experts from the finance and investment sectors to explore these challenges in more depth. Our briefing report summarises the action needed by government, the financial sector, business and the third sector to meet the scale and pace of change needed.

Abstract:
Digital financial services (DFS) have rapidly expanded across Africa and other low-income countries. At the same time, low-income countries face strong pressures to increase domestic resource mobilisation, and major challenges in taxing the digital economy. A growing number are therefore advancing or considering new taxes on DFS. These have generated much debate and there are significant disagreements over the rationale for the taxes and their likely impacts. This paper examines three key questions that could help governments and other stakeholders to better understand the rationale for, and impacts of, different decisions around taxing DFS – and to arrive at policies that best meet competing needs. First, what is the rationale for imposing specific taxes on money transfers or mobile money in particular? Second, and most importantly, what is the likely impact of DFS taxes? Third, how do the policy processes through which taxes on DFS and money transfers are introduced function in practice? The paper looks at the core principles of good taxation and presents the existing debate around whether taxes on DFS observe them. It explains why understanding the landscape of financial services is essential to designing suitable tax policies and lays out a framework for developing the necessary analysis of the impacts of taxes on DFS. It also highlights the importance of better understanding the processes that give rise to these taxes.

Abstract:
This publication is the third product of the Erasmus + Project entitled Voices of Immigrant Women (Project Number: 2020-1-ES01-KA203-082364). This product is based on a set of policy recommendations that provides practical guidance on intervention proposals to those with political responsibilities in governance on migration management and policies for integration and social inclusion, as well as to policy makers in the governance of training in Higher Education (University) at all levels. This is intended to promote the development of practical strategies that allow overcoming the obstacles encountered by migrant women during the integration process, favoring the construction of institutions, administrations and, ultimately, more inclusive societies. The content presented in this book proposes recommendations and intervention proposals oriented to practice to: - Improve Higher Education study plans by promoting the training of students as future active protagonists who are aware of social interventions. This will promote equity, diversity and the integration of migrant women. - Strengthen cooperation and creation of networks between academic organizations, the third sector and public administrations that are responsible for promoting the integration and inclusion of migrant women. - Promote dialogue and the exchange of knowledge to, firstly, raise awareness of human mobility and gender in Europe and, secondly, promote the participation and social, labor and civic integration of the migrant population. All this is developed through 4 areas in which this book is articulated. The first area entitled "Migrant women needs and successful integration interventions"; the second area entitled "Promoting University students awareness and civic and social responsibility towards migrant women integration"; the third area entitled "Cooperation between Higher Education institutions and third sector"; the fourth and last area, entitled "Inclusive Higher Education".
