    This work examines the economic conditions of dependent elderly people and their families, in order to investigate the existence of a relation between the condition of dependence and the risk of falling into poverty. For this purpose, we divide the research in to phase. The result of the first phase, obtained through a cluster analysis, is the definition of four typologies of the European States on the basis of LTC systems' specific aspects (public expenditure, accessibility and delivery of services and the care market composition), which in our opinion, affect the level of private resources (both in term of time and money) that dependent elderly people and their family members devote to care. On the basis of the result of the cluster analysis we selected a restrict number of countries in order to estimate the possible connection between the level of private care resources related to the health condition of the elderly and the risk of poverty, both for the dependent elderly and for their adult children. Through the use of micro data, this work offers an analysis of the impacts of the LTC system reform processes on the formal and informal services, during the last ten years. Logistic regression models are used for estimate the relationship between the risk of poverty, the private care resources, the individual and family characteristics and the benefits that the dependent elderly people receive from LTC system. At the aggregate level, the main sources of data are represented by ESSPROS, SHA, OECD and EUROSTAT. At the micro level we use the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE: wave 1, wave 2 and wave 4) to analyze both LTC-related spending and the elderly person’s and its family income. We utilize the dataset of the three waves of SHARE in order to use a diachronic approach for better understanding of the incidence of the dependent condition on the income of the elderly and their family

    Lo studio analizza come il Reddito di inclusione e il Reddito di cittadinanza si prefigurano rispetto alla copertura del bisogno economico delle diverse coorti generazionali. Dopo aver mostrato la recente dinamica del fenomeno della povertà in Italia, l’articolo presenta alcune micro-simulazioni sulla platea di potenziali beneficiari e sulla spesa prevista per le due misure di contrasto alla povertà in esame. I risultati evidenziano che, in termini comparativi e al netto della generalizzata espansione della platea dei beneficiari prodotta dal Reddito di cittadinanza, quest’ultimo tende a favorire la popolazione anziana molto più della precedente misura nazionale e che questo disequilibrio generazionale verrebbe solo parzialmente risolto da una modifica della scala di equivalenza

    Make them work! In-work benefits after the pandemic in the reform of Italy’s minimum income scheme

    As a consequence of the pandemic the linkage between in-work benefits (IWBs) and minimum income schemes (MIS) is likely to gain prominence, due to the potential impact of asymmetric employment shocks on low-income workers. Framing the characteristics of IWBs in the institutional setting and the functioning of the welfare state in a selected number of European countries, this article draws lessons for the Italian case on the role of these kinds of measures in avoiding poverty traps. Using EU-LFS data and INAPP Plus data, the article analyses, in the Italian case, the variation before and after the pandemic outbreak in the profiles of MIS beneficiaries close to the labour market and of those workers who have become unemployed. Evidence indicates that the variations in the profiles of MIS beneficiaries and those transitioning into unemployment after the pandemic outburst call for the introduction of a fully-fledged IWB. This should be properly linked with MIS to minimize the risks of a poverty trap, and encourage the take-up of regular employment. Rather than dismantling MIS support for the «employable» recipients, evidence suggests that reform should focus on making MIS compatible with work through the IWB schem

    I would like to but I cannot : what influences the involuntariness of part-time employment in Italy

    Published online: 14 May 2024Over the last two decades, involuntary part-time (IPT) employment has become a more and more pressing issue in Europe, especially in the southern countries, where IPT today constitutes most part-time employment. Using INAPP-PLUS data and different discrete choice model estimations, this paper aims to shed light on the factors that explain the IPT growth in Italy, focusing on what influences the IPT status at the individual, household and labour market levels. The main hypothesis is that what influences the IPT work derive from a combination of workers’ individual, household, and job characteristics which may engender limited power during the bargaining process. The empirical results, based on gender-specific models, highlight that characteristics associated with the IPT status significantly changed over time, reporting a convergent path between the gender profiles of IPT employment. However, IPT employment for women still appears to be mainly originated from the gendered division of domestic and care tasks, while this phenomenon seems to be mainly driven by the labour demand side for men.This article was published Open Access with the support from the EUI Library through the CRUI - Springer Transformative Agreement (2020-2024

    Qualità del lavoro e digitalizzazione. Riflessioni aperte sul caso italiano

    No full text
    L’articolo propone un’analisi della qualità del lavoro in ottica dei processi di innovazione e digitalizzazione. Utilizzando i dati della V Indagine Inapp sulla Qualità del lavoro in Italia (QdL), si analizzano i profili dei lavoratori rispetto all’impiego degli strumenti tecnologici, differenziando tra hardware e software. I risultati mostrano l’esistenza di quattro profili di lavoratori digitali in relazione al ricorso a tecnologie specifiche, con forte differenziazione interna fra gli stessi. Tale eterogeneità è confermata anche dal punto di vista della qualità del lavoro. Occupazioni orientate all’impiego di tecnologie hardware si associano a effetti negativi rispetto alla qualità del lavoro in termini ergonomici. Al contrario, l’utilizzo di strumenti software genera effetti positivi trasversali in termini di qualità del lavoro. I risultati indicano la necessità di una lettura ampia dei processi di innovazione e digitalizzazione che consenta di coglierne gli effetti trasformativi, non solo rispetto alla composizione della struttura occupazionale, ma anche in relazione a potenziali ricadute in termini di aumento o riduzione complessiva della qualità del lavoro nell’occupazione generata

    L’elaborato analizza le conseguenze lavoristiche della successione fra imprenditori, muovendo da una ricognizione delle varie tipologie di esternalizzazione con le relative esigenze e principali criticità. L’indagine si concentra in primo luogo sul trasferimento d’azienda, esaminando la normativa e la giurisprudenza europee per passare poi alla disciplina di diritto interno, alle procedure sindacali e a uno specifico focus sul trasferimento delle aziende in crisi. Successivamente l’autore si sofferma sull’appalto, prendendone in particolare considerazione gli indici di genuinità, i criteri di distinzione dalla somministrazione illecita di manodopera e la tutela delle maestranze in caso di avvicendamento fra imprese. Da ultimo, la ricerca approfondisce le c.d. “clausole sociali”, sia di prima che di seconda generazione, valutandone la compatibilità con il diritto eurounitario e con la costituzione nonché riflettendo sui possibili rimedi in caso di loro violazione.The author analyzes the labour consequences of the succession between entrepreneurs, starting from a recognition of the various types of outsourcing with the related needs and main critical issues. The survey focuses primarily on the transfer of businesses, examining European legislation and case-law and then moving on to internal legislation, trade union procedures and a specific focus on the transfer of companies in crisis. The author then dwells on the contract, taking into account in particular the indications of authenticity, the criteria of distinction from the illicit administration of labour and the protection of workers in the event of turnover between companies. Finally, the research deepens the "social clauses", both first and second generation, assessing their compatibility with European law and with the constitution and reflecting on possible remedies in case of their violation

    A general purpose suite for Grid resources exploitation

    We present a general-purpose software framework, which allows different multi-disciplinary communities to take advantage of a distributed computational infrastructure. The ultimate goal is to provide organizations that need to exploit resources with CPU-intensive loose-parallel tasks with a software service capable to offer a user-friendly, standard and highly customizable access to the Grid. The software suite we developed has been designed specifically for organizations that cannot afford the adoption costs of more specialized and complex frameworks, developed in High Energy Physics (HEP) environment, but that still require an easy-to-use interface to the Grid. Our framework heavily relies on a bookkeeping database, storing both application-specific and infrastructure meta-data, which is tightly coupled with a web-based user-interface. The first makes available to the users information on the execution status of jobs and their specific meaning and parameters, and contributes in orchestrating the submission mechanism. The latter provides job submission management, bookkeeping database interactions, basic monitoring functionality and eLog system. Multi-site submissions based on user-defined requests and fine grain parametric submission interfaces are available. The structure of framework services follow a centralized design: job management service and bookkeeping database are hosted in a European Grid Infrastructure (EGI) site. Jobs executed into remote sites transfer their output to predefined target site repository and update the bookkeeping database. In addition, the framework requires a proper configuration of the remote Grid sites on which the jobs will run. Results from a large production of Monte Carlo simulated events submitted to 15 Grid sites are reported, and a comparison in terms of features, scopes, and targets, with a broad spectrum of general-purpose solutions in the same field of application is presented as well
