The Disposable American
Author: Louis Uchitelle
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 1400034337
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
A timely, eye-opening account from an award-winning reporter that reveals how layoffs in America are counterproductive and what companies can do to avoid them and help create jobs, benefiting workers, corporations, and the nation as a whole. “Effectively wrecks the claim that all this downsizing makes the country more productive, more competitive, more flexible…. A strong case that the whole middle class is at risk.” —The New York Times Layoffs have become a fact of life in today’s economy; initiated in the mid 1970s, they are now widely expected, and even accepted. It doesn’t have to be that way. In The Disposable American, Louis Uchitelle offers an eye-opening account of layoffs in America–how they started, their questionable necessity, and their devastating psychological impact on individuals at all income levels. Through portraits of both executives and workers at companies such as Stanley Works, United Airlines, and Citigroup, Uchitelle shows how layoffs are in fact counterproductive, rarely promoting efficiency or profitability in the long term. Recognizing that a global competitive economy makes tightening necessary, Uchitelle offers specific recommendations for government policies that would encourage companies to avoid layoffs and help create jobs.

Gender and Citizenship in the Global Age
Author: Amri, Laroussi
Publisher: CODESRIA
ISBN: 2869785895
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
One of the major issues this book examines is what the African experience and identity have contributed to the debate on citizenship in the era of globalisation. The volume presents case studies of different African contexts, illustrating the gendered aspects of citizenship as experienced by African men and women. Citizenship carries manifold gendered aspects and given the distinct gender roles and responsibilities, globalisation affects citizenship in different ways. It further examines new forms of citizenship emerging from the current era dominated by a neoliberal focus. The book is not exclusive in terms of theorisation but its focus on African contexts, with an in-depth analysis taking into consideration local culture and practices and their implications for citizenship, provides a good foundation for further scholarly work on gender and citizenship in Africa.

Pages : 28
Book Description
This guide is intended to serve as a reference tool to individuals responsible for planning and implementing a work force reduction program. The information included in the guide represents a synthesis of practices that have worked for a number of companies, individuals, and communities that have had to cope with a work force reduction. The first of the guide's four parts discusses the many benefits of developing and implementing a responsible work force reduction program, including cost savings in unemployment insurance, increased productivity and morale, improved company image and community relations, and improved communications with workers and the community. The federal, state, and employer/union contractual funds that are available for dislocated worker assistance programs are described in the second part. Part 3 explains 6 general principles for responsible work force reduction programs and 10 key steps in planning a program. Part 4 discusses the special needs of dislocated workers; 10 types of reemployment services (group job search workshops, formal assessment, career planning, job development and placement, occupational training, job clubs, on-the-job training, basic education, resource areas, and relocation assistance); and four supportive services for dislocated workers (individual benefit planning, unemployment insurance, personal counseling, and temporary financial assistance). The addresses and phone numbers of the National Alliance of Business' seven regional offices are included. (MN)

Income Support for the Unemployed
Author: Milan Vodopivec
Publisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN: 9780821357613
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
With the aim to provide guidelines for countries wishing to introduce or improve income support systems for the unemployed, the book summarizes the evidence about the performance of five such systems: unemployment insurance, unemployment assistance, unemployment insurance savings accounts, severance pay, and public works. These systems are evaluated by two sets of criteria: (i) performance criteria, evaluating how well these systems work A? how they protect incomes and what other, particularly efficiency related, effects they may have; and (ii) design and implementation criteria, evaluating how these systems fit the country A? how suitable are these programs given country-specific conditions, chief among them being labor market and other institutions, the capacity needed for administering income support programs, the size of the informal sector, and prevalence of private transfers. Income Support Systems for the Unemployed also offers summary evaluations of alternative systems by describing the strengths and weaknesses of each system and pointing out the country specific circumstances which are particularly conducive to performance.
