pandemic; willingness; work summary = To estimate the proportion of healthcare workers (HCWs) willing to work during an influenza pandemic and identify associated risk factors, we undertook a systematic review and meta-analysis compliant with PRISMA guidance. Meta-analyses of specific factors showed that male HCWs, physicians and nurses, full-time employment, perceived personal safety, awareness of pandemic risk and clinical knowledge of influenza pandemics, role-specific knowledge, pandemic response training, and confidence in personal skills were statistically significantly associated with increased willingness. Data extraction was performed by a single researcher (YA) using a piloted form collecting details of study characteristics {title, author, publication year, place, study period, study design, participants, subject [pandemic of avian influenza origin/influenza A(H1N1)pdm09/non-specified, hypothetical influenza pandemic]}; definition of outcome measures; questionnaire type; validation; statistical analysis and any stated limitations; percentage of willingness to work; and risk factors association with willingness. doi = 10.1111/irv.12310 id = cord-254779-cad6pb3n author = Asakura, Kenta title = Using Simulation as an Investigative Methodology in Researching Competencies of Clinical Social Work Practice: A Scoping Review date = 2020-09-24 keywords = SBR; social; work summary = This article reports a scoping review designed to synthesize current literature that used simulation as an investigative methodology (simulation-based research; SBR) in researching practice competencies in clinical social work. The purpose of this scoping review was to systematically search and summarize the current state of social work literature, in which simulation (e.g., trained actors as standardized clients, virtual reality, staged environments) was used as an investigative methodology in researching practice competencies. Using our content expertise, the lead author (KA) and a second team member (KS) worked together to develop the following inclusion criteria to identify empirical studies written in English and published in peer-review journals: (1) used simulation-based data (e.g., live SPs, video-recordings of SPs, virtual reality, data available from OSCE), (2) examined practice competencies (i.e., knowledge, values, and skills) related to clinical social work, and (3) included study samples comprised of social workers, social work students, or social work supervisors. doi = 10.1007/s10615-020-00772-x id = cord-297635-higq7wje author = Bahn, Kate title = A Feminist Perspective on COVID‐19 and the Value of Care Work Globally date = 2020-05-07 keywords = COVID-19; woman; work summary = The perceived low value of care work paid and unpaid -and women''s disproportionate responsibility in performing this work is an issue that has garnered long-term attention in the field of feminist economics, with valuable lessons for understanding how women are impacted by COVID-19 and mitigating hardships as countries navigate the related economic fallout (Power, 2004) . The value of women''s paid and unpaid labor is increasingly apparent with the spread of COVID-19: as school close, the role of teachersdisproportionately womenand public education as a mechanism of support and care-giving for families is laid bare, as women working for pay scramble to arrange childcare. Because women bear responsibility for social reproduction, during crises they may face increased pressure to substitute unpaid work for lost income, for example taking care of an ill relative at home rather than taking them to a clinic (ILO, 2018). doi = 10.1111/gwao.12459 id = cord-023988-u60l07jv author = Bao, Yinyin title = Snapshots of Life—Early Career Materials Scientists Managing in the Midst of a Pandemic date = 2020-04-23 keywords = COVID-19; research; time; work summary = After a two-week self-quarantine, I worked hard in the lab and tried to get as many results as possible, since I realized that universities in the US could also be shut down in the near future, which happened one month later. ■ LONG CHEN, PROFESSOR, DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY, TIANJIN UNIVERSITY During the locked-down period in our city since February, although the laboratories are still closed and all the students keep staying in their hometown, we all have great confidence that our country, and the entire world, can win this COVID-19 pandemic crisis. Our team is made up of a number of graduate student researchers and postdocs from LBNL and UC Berkeley who specialize in natural language processing methods for analyzing materials science literature, but we were approached about a month ago by colleagues from the Innovative Genomics Institute about applying some of our techniques to the COVID-19 literature.

More recently, we have seen the introduction of sophisticated algorithmic features and AI capabilities that leverage information and the features of individual and social workplace technologies to establish patterns of use that aim to anticipate worker and organisational needs and connect people with knowledge, and in some cases perform management functions, raising the possibility of removing the human from the loop. doi = 10.1016/j.jsis.2020.101618 id = cord-306504-0wq7rc6s author = Barakovic Husic, Jasmina title = Aging at Work: A Review of Recent Trends and Future Directions date = 2020-10-20 keywords = NLP; age; article; old; work summary = In order to answer the research questions, we examined studies on the aging labour force that were published between January 2008 and August 2019, to recognize the trends in the literature written in English with respect to motivation issues and potential solutions.

Likewise, the Google Community Mobility Report (Google 2020) presented in Figure 4 (which aggregates data across Australia and compares to the median value for the corresponding day of the week during the 5-week period Jan 3-Feb 6, 2020 as a baseline) shows a sustained increase in time spent at work, retail and recreation, and parks, while time at home has slowly diminished. Given the anecdotal evidence in new media sources about increased use of active travel modes (Abano 2020, Landis-Hanley 2020) and greater use of public spaces for exercise and recreation (O''Sullivan 2020), questions were included in Wave 2 around whether or not respondents had felt they had increased or decreased use of different modes in the previous week, and how they were planning to change their use as restrictions were eased. doi = 10.1016/j.tranpol.2020.08.004 id = cord-266405-l102f1e3 author = Buckley, Laura title = What is known about paediatric nurse burnout: a scoping review date = 2020-02-11 keywords = burnout; high; nurse; pediatric; work summary = Given the prevalence and impact of burnout on a variety of important outcomes, it is imperative that nursing schools, nursing management, healthcare organizations, and nursing professional associations work to develop and test the interventions to address key attitudinal and environmental factors that are most relevant to pediatric nurses.

Our accumulated body of knowledge in IHRM has helped us understand the challenges people face when placed in a wide range of MNE work arrangements, such as expatriate assignments, virtual international work, global project teams, and frequent international travel (Shaffer, Kraimer, Chen & Bolino, 2012) . The COVID-19 pandemic has shown that managing employees'' health and safety is a key challenge for IHRM, and this is an important component of the grand challenge faced by MNEs in understanding how to deal with social responsibility (Buckley et al., 2017) . IHRM scholarship can offer an evidence-base for global mobility policies that will help employees to adjust to new ways of working in teams and the inevitable stress and uncertainty of post-pandemic travel. doi = 10.1057/s41267-020-00335-9 id = cord-336083-2tt9053k author = Chauhan, Priyanshi title = Gendering COVID-19: Impact of the Pandemic on Women’s Burden of Unpaid Work in India date = 2020-10-24 keywords = unpaid; woman; work summary = Owing to the sexual division of labour, and gendered roles and social norms of performing domestic and care work in a household, the burden of unpaid work falls disproportionately on women. With the closure of offices and educational institutions, and the simultaneously emerging norm of work from home and online education, along with the lack of services of domestic workers, the need to perform unpaid chores like cooking, cleaning, washing, child care among others by household members has increased [3] . Furthermore, the paper will study the gendered impact of lockdown on unpaid labour of women on various parameters like marital status, employment status, income levels and average weekly office hours. For interviews, a sub-sample from stage one was taken based on the characteristics like marital status, employment status, use of services of domestic help, and the responses received on change in time spent on unpaid chores during the lockdown. doi = 10.1007/s12147-020-09269-w id = cord-327887-14tcoqdi author = Chen, I-Shuo title = Personal resources and personal demands for work engagement: Evidence from employees in the service industry date = 2020-06-30 keywords = demand; engagement; personal; resource; work summary = In light of the above, it is valuable and important to study how employees in service settings like hospitality manage these resources and demands across domains (e.g., home to work) and how this management impacts their subsequent behaviors (e.g., work engagement) to comprehensively understand the role of personal resources in their behaviors from a cross-domain perspective and to address the knowledge gap in the literature. Conventional studies and theories, such as the job demands-resources model, posit that individuals become less engaged due to the exhaustion of available personal resources at work and that they become more engaged due to an improved sense of ability to perform effectively at work (e.g., Breevaart et al., 2019; Conway et al., 2016; Demerouti et al., 2016; Ott et al., 2019) . doi = 10.1016/j.ijhm.2020.102600 id = cord-290717-rdu5na0g author = Cho, Eunae title = Examining boundaries to understand the impact of COVID-19 on vocational behaviors date = 2020-05-08 keywords = boundary; work summary = I propose that the changes in the micro and macro boundaries are one of the important mechanisms in how COVID-19 affects many individuals'' vocational behaviors and career outcomes. We need to better understand the impact of the pandemic on work and careers to guide individuals to navigate through this dynamic situation. To this end, I call for research taking a closer look at the boundaries in the career context, both at the micro and macro levels, given their critical relevance to vocational behaviors and career outcomes. Given that support from other members of role domains is pivotal, another interesting J o u r n a l P r e -p r o o f question is how dual-earner couples create rules and negotiate their work and family involvement. Concerning the macro boundary, an interesting question is what individuals do to minimize the disruptive impact of closed borders on their work, career, and family. doi = 10.1016/j.jvb.2020.103437 id = cord-333063-emfdv8oa author = Chung, Sheng-Chia title = Association between Angiotensin Blockade and Incidence of Influenza in the United Kingdom date = 2020-05-08 keywords = work summary = On occasion, journals may ask authors to disclose further information about reported relationships.

To test the hypotheses and determine the importance of the number of work-related events and changes, job satisfaction, self-esteem and social support in psychological distress, and life satisfaction amongst men and women, hierarchical multiple regression analyses were made. Model 3, with all the independent variables in the equation, predicted 28% In Table 1 are the correlation coefficients between the age, level of studies, number of work-related events and changes, job satisfaction, self-esteem and social support with the psychological distress, and life satisfaction amongst men and women. doi = 10.3390/ijerph17134697 id = cord-334776-hvgbg0gu author = Craig, Lyn title = Dual‐earner Parent Couples’ Work and Care during COVID‐19 date = 2020-06-25 keywords = COVID-19; father; work summary = Prior to COVID-19-related restrictions, mothers'' average daily time allocation to housework and household management and active care combined was about 1 hour and 40 minutes more than fathers'' (5.78 vs 4.09 hours per day, p. However, the relative gender gap narrowed from 41 to 36 percent, largely because during COVID-19 fathers'' active care for children was 64 percent higher than it had been before, compared to only a 50 percent increase by mothers. However, compared to before COVID-19, the increases in childcare (though not housework/household management) were proportionally higher for fathers, which narrowed relative gender differences in care. Overall, the results suggest that both fathers and mothers were more dissatisfied with how they shared housework and unpaid care with their partner during COVID-19, but the dissatisfaction was much more extreme amongst women, from a much higher base to start with. doi = 10.1111/gwao.12497 id = cord-023118-dwh70u29 author = Devereaux, Mary title = Moral Judgments and Works of Art: The Case of Narrative Literature date = 2004-01-30 keywords = author; judgment; moral; work summary = In the final example, we see McGinn making judgments that can easily be read as directed at Nabokov, the real-life author, and his fictional creation, the character Humbert Humbert. We can approach the question about what we are doing when we direct our moral attention to the literary work itself, by asking what it is to read a novel. The historical author of the novel, The Grass is Singing, is the real-life person, Doris Lessing; what I am calling the posited author is, in contrast, an interpretive construct, "a fiction." Its function is to allow us to read the text in a certain way, that is, under the concept of literary purposiveness. Now Posner is surely right that moral judgments that take as their object the work''s realworld author or its effects may, and in some cases will, turn our attention away from the stylistic and structural matters central to the value of literature. doi = 10.1111/j.1540-594x.2004.00130.x id = cord-314092-ph5vrba6 author = De’, Rahul title = Impact of Digital Surge during Covid-19 Pandemic: A Viewpoint on Research and Practice date = 2020-06-09 keywords = digital; internet; pandemic; research; work summary = The Covid-19 pandemic has led to an inevitable surge in the use of digital technologies due to the social distancing norms and nationwide lockdowns. In the next section, we examine the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the use of digital technologies where we discuss some possible scenarios and research issues of the post-pandemic world. With the substantial use of technology in accessing basic requirements like health and education, it is imperative to understand the impact of the digital divide on social equality. 6.

For the Covid-19 pandemic, we envisage a dramatic shift in digital usage with impacts on all aspects of work and life. doi = 10.1016/j.ijinfomgt.2020.102171 id = cord-272406-h22atwd4 author = Diotaiuti, Pierluigi title = The Principal at Risk: Stress and Organizing Mindfulness in the School Context date = 2020-08-31 keywords = discomfort; principal; school; stress; work summary = Methods: This study was voluntarily attended by 419 Italian school principals who were administered the Psychological Stress Measurement (MSP), Mindfulness Organizing Scale (MOS), Polychronic-Monochronic Tendency Scale (PMTS), and the Scale of Emotions at Work (SEW). The effect of depressive anxiety on perceived discomfort (ß = 0.517) found a protective mediator in the mindfulness component that recognizes the sharing as a fundamental operational tool (ß = −0.206), while an increasing sense of effort and confusion could significantly amplify the experience of psychological discomfort associated with the exercise of school leadership (ß = 0.254). The first analyses of our study have indicated that the general perception of the principal''s working discomfort presents on the one hand an association with the level of stress, which contributes to increase the value of the discomfort, and on the other hand an equally significant association with organizing Mindfulness, which can substantially limit the negative effects of stress on perceived discomfort. doi = 10.3390/ijerph17176318 id = cord-307952-mz9ucnxa author = Dobusch, Laura title = Privilege and burden of im‐/mobility governance: On the reinforcement of inequalities during a pandemic lockdown date = 2020-05-09 keywords = relation; work summary = In fact, the governance of im‐/mobilities follows and reinforces already prevalent inequality regimes based on class, gender and migration relations, thereby differentiating between bodies perceived as highly valuable and worth protecting and those categorized as less valued and potentially disposable. Third, and this is connected to the first two points, as the coronavirus can potentially infiltrate any social relationship and keeping in mind that a fundamental relationality is constitutive for the viability of human existence as such, the COVID-19 crisis management cannot simply follow established strategies of externalizing costs (as happened in the financial crisis 2007-08) or blaming certain groups for ''their own failure'' (as happened during the ''long summer of migration'' of 2015). In fact, the governance of im-/mobilities follows and reinforces already prevalent inequality regimes based on class, gender and migration relations. We illustrate this link between im-/mobility governance and pre-existing inequality regimes by the case of COVID-19 measures of the Austrian government and how they affected the organization of paid work. doi = 10.1111/gwao.12462 id = cord-321234-2nkktokz author = El‐Ghazali, S. title = ‘Shielded’ anaesthetists and intensivists during the COVID‐19 pandemic: a reply date = 2020-07-06 keywords = work summary = We are aware that many colleagues, because of individual risk factors, have been community shielding, workplace shielding or have been undertaking duties vastly different from their usual scope of work.

Sometimes guilt is socially useful, but we hope that colleagues will agree that those who have been quite rightly shielded by a responsible healthcare system should feel no guilt for this. We will continue to work independently and with other organisations to provide support to colleagues in times of difficulty.

Thus, when occupational organizations consider protective strategies against stress that is related to COVID-19 infection risk at work among social sector and health care workers, promoting identification with their work community might be one key protective factor that can buffer this stress. This article analyses the combined effect of the perceived risk associated with COVID-19 infection at work with work community identification on psychosocial well-being (i.e., frequency of stress symptoms) among health care and social sector workers in Finland. doi = 10.3390/ijerph17207623 id = cord-333640-oh9ucair author = Gambaro, Giovanni title = Nothing will ever be as before.

As one colleague wrote: unfortunately, my hospital and nephrology clinic were not prepared to deal with the COVID epidemic, especially considering the WHO guidelines issued as early as February 2020. Very soon patient''s triage started, the "red zone" was equipped with PPE''s, and presently doctors and nurses, recruited for work in the COVID centre get special training. Emanuela Cataldo a young nephrologist working in a COVID Unit in Bari, talks about loneliness in a surreal scenario: this pandemic took two fundamental things away from me: freedom and close contact with people. There is no better definition of fear, than in these words from Emanuela: working with COVID patients makes you feel their desperate condition. doi = 10.1007/s40620-020-00756-7 id = cord-349353-2ll9hzfr author = Giordano, Chiara title = Freedom or money?

With regard to promoting safe and secure working environments to create a decent work for all, some papers published in this special issue introduce advances in measuring psychosocial risk factors, mental health, and work-related issues. They found that ward type predicted the level of work arduousness beyond other factors such as age or gender, suggesting that trauma and diseases related to stress and mental health that originate in the workplace may have a different pattern of development or require an organizationcentered treatment approach that complements the personcentered approach derived from research conducted in clinical and psychiatric contexts.

The critical effect of the work environment is emphasised by Astvik, Welander and Larsson, who also looked at worker retention in another longitudinal study, this time of Swedish social services. Tudor used a positive critique to examine the practice accounts of school social workers, putting them alongside the main features of recovery policies which provide for individual assistance for vulnerable groups who are unlikely to access community self-help initiatives.

Conclusion: Losing work during the COVID-19 pandemic is associated with mental and physical health problems, and this relationship is moderated by social interactions and financial resources. This study aimed to determine whether losing work during the COVID-19 pandemic is associated with poorer mental and physical health, and to determine if financial resources and social interactions moderate the relationship between work loss and health. This study demonstrates that in a cohort of people employed prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, those experiencing work loss are more likely to report psychological distress, and poor mental and physical health compared to those whose work was unaffected. Those in the job loss group had the greatest odds of reporting high psychological distress, poor mental and physical health than those in the other study groups. doi = 10.1101/2020.09.06.20189514 id = cord-146850-5x6qs2i4 author = Gupta, Abhishek title = The State of AI Ethics Report (June 2020) date = 2020-06-25 keywords = Ethics; datum; different; example; human; impact; information; lead; like; need; people; social; system; work summary = Another point brought up in the article is that social media companies might themselves be unwilling to tolerate scraping of their users'' data to do this sort of vetting which against their terms of use for access to the APIs. Borrowing from the credit reporting world, the Fair Credit Reporting Act in the US offers some insights when it mentions that people need to be provided with a recourse to correct information that is used about them in making a decision and that due consent needs to be obtained prior to utilizing such tools to do a background check. Given that AI systems operate in a larger socio-technical ecosystem, we need to tap into fields like law and policy making to come up with effective ways of integrating ethics into AI systems, part of which can involve creating binding legal agreements that tie in with economic incentives.While policy making and law are often seen as slow to adapt to fast changing technology, there are a variety of benefits to be had, for example higher customer trust for services that have adherence to stringent regulations regarding privacy and data protection. doi = nan id = cord-033693-zx5g5dyg author = Hardon, Anita title = Chemical 24/7 date = 2020-10-14 keywords = Amsterdam; Brooklyn; Philippines; drink; energy; work summary = This chapter shines a light on what happens in the dark: specifically, we present ethnographic insights from the nightlife economy and how chemicals enable youth to work "24/7." Producers, promoters, DJs, hosts, artists, performers, drag queens, musicians, stage managers, bartenders, hospitality girls, and dancers from Amsterdam, Brooklyn, Bira (Indonesia), and Puerto Princesa (the Philippines) share with the ChemicalYouth team the various stimulants they use to stay awake and perform their jobs during non-typical working hours, and the other chemicals that they take in order to be able to sleep and recover afterwards. In the Philippines and Indonesia our focused ethnographies examined how young people used stimulants to have energy and strength enough to conduct physically challenging work, laboring long hours as porters, construction workers, and security guards. Diego observed that being alert during their long shifts was a key challenge for these workers, and that they relied on energy drinks as the main substance they use to help stay awake. doi = 10.1007/978-3-030-57081-1_6 id = cord-272923-5ekgb0zx author = Hjálmsdóttir, Andrea title = “I have turned into a foreman here at home.” Families and work‐life balance in times of Covid‐19 in a gender equality paradise. date = 2020-09-19 keywords = Iceland; family; home; time; work summary = In Iceland, as elsewhere, women work part-time jobs in higher numbers, and mothers reduce their labor participation following childbirth more often than do fathers (Gíslason & Símonardóttir, 2018) . In the following example, a mother of a 2-year-old working in mass media, who worked entirely from home as did her husband, described one of her days like this: "I''m a little anxious because of all this, the situation in society. This is in accordance with previous studies on gendered control of time among parents (Bryson, 2016; Friedman, 2015) and new research conducted during Covid-19 that indicate that unpaid work performed by mothers has increased during the pandemic (Craig & Churchill, 2020; Manzo & Minello, 2020) . One of the patterns identified in the reflections of the women in our study was how they seemed to be stunned by how uneven the division of labor turned out to be during the pandemic and how much time and energy they devoted to household chores and the management of the household, carrying out the mental work within the family. doi = 10.1111/gwao.12552 id = cord-018125-khhzlt9y author = Jain, Aditya title = Work, Health, Safety and Well-Being: Current State of the Art date = 2018-04-12 keywords = HSW; OSH; health; risk; safety; work; worker summary = It revised the definition at its 12th session in 1995 to read as follows: occupational safety and health should aim at: the promotion and maintenance of the highest degree of physical, mental and social well-being of workers in all occupations; the prevention amongst workers of departures from health caused by their working conditions; the protection of workers in their employment from risks resulting from factors adverse to health; the placing and maintenance of the worker in an occupational environment adapted to his physiological and psychological capabilities; and, to summarize, the adaptation of work to man and of each man to his job. Liberalization of world trade, rapid technological progress, significant developments in transport and communication, shifting patterns of employment, changes in work organization practices, the different employment patterns of men and women, and the size, structure and life cycles of enterprises and of new technologies can all generate new types and patterns of hazards, exposures and risks. doi = 10.1007/978-94-024-1261-1_1 id = cord-256504-odbaubqm author = Kuo, Fang‐Li title = Survey on perceived work stress and its influencing factors among hospital staff during the COVID‐19 pandemic in Taiwan date = 2020-08-19 keywords = Taiwan; stress; work summary = The questionnaire included items on the demographic characteristics of hospital staff and a scale to assess stress among healthcare workers caring for patients with a highly infectious disease. The five highest stress scores were observed for the items "rough and cracked hands due to frequent hand washing and disinfectant use," "inconvenience in using the toilet at work," "restrictions on eating and drinking at work," "fear of transmitting the disease to relatives and friends," and "fear of being infected with COVID‐19." Discomfort caused by protective equipment was the major stressor for the participants, followed by burden of caring for patients. This could be attributed to physical discomfort caused by protective equipment, also, nurses often Previous studies have shown that work stress is related to one''s demographic characteristics, 13, 17 and that child care at home is a common problem for hospital staff, 28, 29 which is an important factor leading to work-family conflicts. doi = 10.1002/kjm2.12294 id = cord-028009-s0cxhf54 author = Maree, Jacobus Gideon (Kobus) title = Connecting What We Know Consciously with What We Are Aware of Subconsciously: Orientation of and Rationale for the Book date = 2020-05-05 keywords = Maree; Savickas; career; counseling; life; work summary = I draw on one of my earliest recollections to set the scene for what is to follow in later chapters and elaborate on my own personal Damascene moment—a moment that convinced me forever of the need for as well as the power and value of an integrative QUALITATIVE-quantitative approach to career counseling, particularly at a time when many speculate that work itself is at risk.

Depending on our data, the home environment seems to be not adequate in the mobile worker population, with an increased risk for mental health and MSK problems, particularly affecting the spine. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of home working on job satisfaction, occupational stress, perceived productivity, and MSK issues. We characterized a population of mobile workers in terms of work-related outcomes, such as perceived productivity and job satisfaction, and onset or changes of previous MSK disorders, particularly LBP and neck pain. Concerning physical health issues related to remote working, increased sedentariness and poor posture due to the use of non-ergonomic equipment in our population seemed to promote the onset of MSK disorders, particularly LBP and neck pain. doi = 10.3390/ijerph17176284 id = cord-301000-ozm5f5dy author = Naqvi, Zainab Batul title = A Wench’s Guide to Surviving a ‘Global’ Pandemic Crisis: Feminist Publishing in a Time of COVID-19 date = 2020-09-04 keywords = COVID-19; Global; black; feminist; time; work summary = For us, this has recently manifested in a collective statement on publishing and open access, which we have jointly produced and signed with several other intersectional feminist and social justice journal editorial boards.

The lack of adequate social policy supports like free universal childcare combined with short school days means that Australian women are constantly juggling paid work and caring responsibilities. We argue that COVID-19 provides an another context in which universities have evaded their responsibility to ensure women''s full participation in the labour force via the introduction of ''family-friendly'' flexible working policies which put the onus on families to make choices about how to do paid work and care for children. 90% of the top 10 international universities (n = 9) according to the 2020 Times Higher Education World rankings had public information about remote working arrangements for This article is protected by copyright. doi = 10.1111/gwao.12484 id = cord-024088-020rgz5t author = Radandt, Siegfried title = Governance of Occupational Safety and Health and Environmental Risks date = 2008 keywords = analysis; consequence; decision; disease; health; human; information; new; occupational; principle; process; risk; safety; system; value; work summary = Depending on the type of hazard, the three topics, namely, safety, health and the environment, may share the common trait that the proper handling of risks, i.e., how to reduce probabilities and/or consequences of unwanted events is not always possible within a risk management system. A number of new occupational health and safety hazards have already arisen or are foreseen, including problems with the ergonomics of video display units, and musculoskeletal disorders in shoulder-neck and arm-hand systems, information overload, psychological stress, and pressure to learn new skills. Both managers and workers often do not see the need to improve occupational safety and health or ergonomic issues and their possibilities and benefits by reducing or eliminating risks at work. The explanations below present the basic procedure for developing safety-relevant arrangements and solutions, i.e. the thinking and decision-making processes, as well as selecting criteria that are significant for the identification of unwelcome events, the risk of an event, the acceptance limits and the adoption of measures. doi = 10.1007/978-1-4020-8289-4_4 id = cord-304450-1ub3xzsv author = Ralph, Paul title = Pandemic programming: How COVID-19 affects software developers and how their organizations can help date = 2020-09-14 keywords = COVID-19; University; home; productivity; section; wellbeing; work summary = Confirmatory results include: (1) the pandemic has had a negative effect on developers'' wellbeing and productivity; (2) productivity and wellbeing are closely related; (3) disaster preparedness, fear related to the pandemic and home office ergonomics all affect wellbeing or productivity.

Strategies such as mindfulness training, exercise, taking time-off and ways to improve work/life integration seemed to say that the problem was with the doctors, failing to target significant underlying problems related to the electronic medical record (EMR), performance metrics and lack of flexibility and autonomy that diverted us from activities to improve patient care while taking care of ourselves [1] . The objectives were to identify strategies that promote joy in the practice of surgery, both through identification of surgeon habits that support optimal performance but also through encouraging institutions to commit to healthier, more efficient and positive work environments. Surgeons may be vulnerable to a lack of joy, even Burnout when professional pursuits lose their meaning and purpose, a negative influence which can impact personal lives and relationships. doi = 10.1007/s00464-020-08072-8 id = cord-315126-713k0b9u author = Rudolph, Cort W. title = Generations and Generational Differences: Debunking Myths in Organizational Science and Practice and Paving New Paths Forward date = 2020-09-04 keywords = Baltes; Rudolph; Zacher; age; generation; perspective; social; work summary = Second, with these debunked myths as a backdrop, we focus on two alternative and complementary frameworks—the social constructionist perspective and the lifespan development perspective—with promise for changing the way we think about age, aging, and generations at work. We argue that the social constructionist perspective offers important opportunities for understanding the persistence and pervasiveness of generations and that, as an alternative to studying generations, the lifespan perspective represents a better model for understanding how age operates and development unfolds at work. These complementary approaches-the social constructionist and the lifespan development perspective-offer alternative paths forward for studying age and age-related processes at work that do not require a reliance on generational explanations. The social constructionist perspective also encourages changing the discourse among practitioners, shifting the focus away from managing generations as discrete groups and toward developing more age-conscious personnel practices, policies, and procedures that support workers across the entirety of their working lifespans (e.g., Rudolph & Zacher, 2020c) . doi = 10.1007/s10869-020-09715-2 id = cord-338086-87wfjiqm author = Rueda-Garrido, Juan Carlos title = Return to work guidelines for the COVID-19 pandemic date = 2020-06-01 keywords = COVID-19; work summary = Occupational physicians can play key roles in monitoring workers'' health and developing effective return to work guidelines. The combined use of SARS-CoV-2 viral-RNA detection and serological antibody determination could improve the management of COVID-19 patients, but timing is important. Therefore, best practice for safe return to work after COVID-19 requires accurately identifying the final phases of the disease, where the worker is clinically recovered and no longer contagious.

Therefore, there is a compelling need for longitudinal applied research that draws on theories and findings from various scientific fields to identify variables that uniquely predict the well-being and productivity of software professionals during the 2020 quarantine, for both the current and potential future lockdowns. Second, this approach simultaneously allows us to test whether models developed in an organizational context such as the two-factor theory [48] can also predict people''s well-being in general and whether variables that were associated with well-being for people being quarantined also explain productivity. doi = nan id = cord-030957-45tc5ksf author = Schaap, Andrew title = The politics of precarity date = 2020-08-28 keywords = Apostolidis; Fight; Time; day; politic; precarity; social; work; worker summary = In the final chapters, Apostolidis explores how worker centres might also function synecdochally insofar as the purpose of association is construed not only instrumentally, as protection against the risks associated with precarity, but in terms of their constitutive potential to sustain convivial networks of political possibility for more mutually supportive, creative and pluralistic forms of solidarity than those afforded by traditional unionised spaces. Paul Apostolidis'' book The Fight for Time encapsulates a very similar kind of intellectual-political project as it also seeks to capture the self-understandings of migrant day labourers in their everyday struggles, to reflect on how they resonate with contemporary critical theoretical concepts and to learn how, taken together, these empirical and conceptual insights may lead us to a renewed vision of what a left politics might look like for our age. doi = 10.1057/s41296-020-00435-z id = cord-342690-09g3a08k author = Schieman, Scott title = A Less Objectionable Greed?

In a study of the link between strains in the work-home interface and distributive justice, Narisada (2020) found that individuals who report greater WLC are more likely to describe their pay as unjustly low. And yet, the discovery that WLC elevates the perception of unjustly low pay suggests that many workers experience this inter-role strain as quite objectionable. We test if six dimensions of stratification modify changes in the relationship between WLC and unjust pay during the pandemic. However, the interaction between WLC and survey wave indicator ("May") in model 2 shows that the positive relationship weakened between September and May.

The reviews did, however, not specifically focus on the situation of employers and employees working in SMEs. Furthermore, the Joint German Occupational Safety and Health Strategy (GDA) published recommendations for implementing psychosocial risk assessments listing five work patterns (i.e., work characteristics) that have been identified as primary stress factors in the workplace [39] : To the best of our knowledge, this review is the first to summarize and categorize the current evidence on work-related psychosocial demands with a specific focus on small and medium sized enterprises to identify gaps in current knowledge and provide a systematic overview of which psychosocial factors, outcomes and economic sectors have been considered to date. doi = 10.3390/ijerph17207446 id = cord-278389-cgktbqf9 author = Shaw, William S. title = Opening the Workplace After COVID-19: What Lessons Can be Learned from Return-to-Work Research? date = 2020-06-19 keywords = COVID-19; work summary = Just as injury and illness have variable effects on workability, the COVID-19 crisis is likely to impact workers differently because of issues like threat of viral infection, health vulnerability, organizational perceptions, income levels, and seniority/job tenure. The existing occupational rehabilitation literature has shown how return-to-work and other worker health and safety outcomes are stratified by income, language, immigration status, social rank, and other measures of socioeconomic advantage or disadvantage. Successful opening of workplaces during the COVID-19 pandemic will require significant changes to organizational health and safety policies and practices to show flexibility to individual worker needs, to be fair to workers with less socioeconomic advantage, and to understand the backdrop of stress and social disruption being experienced at all levels of society. doi = 10.1007/s10926-020-09908-9 id = cord-303878-v2n9jeeb author = Stiles, Jonathan title = Working at home and elsewhere: daily work location, telework, and travel among United States knowledge workers date = 2020-09-05 keywords = day; location; travel; work summary = (2017) used Canadian time use data to explore the relationship of working from different locations with travel, finding that some patterns of working from home were associated with less overall travel, a decreased likelihood of traveling at peak travel times, and an increased likelihood of using a non-motorized form of transport. The third section presents the results from the peak hour travel participation multinomial logistic regression models, and the final section augments this with a survival analysis of initial departure times to shed light on a mechanism of morning peak hour avoidance related to homebased work. When we combine homeworking with other non-workplace locations, such as someone who works at home in the morning and goes to a café to work later in the day, the higher likelihood of avoidance of at least some peak hour work travel remains. doi = 10.1007/s11116-020-10136-6 id = cord-033825-d8toyha7 author = Tapiola, Kari title = What Happened to International Labour Standards and Human Rights at Work? date = 2020-10-17 keywords = Declaration; ILO; International; Labour; War; convention; work summary = The ILO introduced an extensive programme of assistance to developing countries for freedom of association, the right to collective bargaining, freedom from forced and child labour and multiform action against all forms of discrimination at work. These principles cover a broad scope of labour rights, starting with freedom of association, hours of work, employment policy, maternity protection, labour inspection, social security provisions, minimum age for employment and the health and safety of different categories of workers. In the new situation after the end of the Cold War and the global opening of markets, the Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work of 1998 and its follow-up activities expressed an underlying aim of the ILO: to strengthen the social dimension of international economic and social policies. In adopting the Centenary Declaration on the Future of Work, the 2019 International Labour Conference requested the Governing Body "to consider, as soon as possible, proposals for including safe and healthy working conditions in the ILO''s framework of fundamental principles and rights at work". doi = 10.1007/978-3-030-55400-2_3 id = cord-353277-vd0etd38 author = Tucker, Jennifer L. title = Informal Work and Sustainable Cities: From Formalization to Reparation date = 2020-09-18 keywords = Global; city; economy; environmental; informal; waste; work; worker summary = Too often, policy elites, including those promoting sustainable cities, overlook this value, proposing formalization and relying on deficit-based framings of informal work. Building on our research in India and Paraguay, amplifying critical informality scholarship and centering the knowledge produced by workers'' organizations, we assert that by thinking historically, relationally, and spatially, and redistributing power and resources to workers, we can move beyond formalization to a frame that centers decent work, ecological health, and reparation for uneven legacies of harm. 40 Informal work produces economic, social, and environmental value that sustains lives and urban environments. Thinking historically, relationally, and spatially reveals how the value produced by informal workers subsidize urban economies and ecologies, even as racial capitalism predictably reproduces job scarcity, income inequality, and poverty, the very conditions that impel many to informal work. doi = 10.1016/j.oneear.2020.08.012 id = cord-278379-wr8j6j36 author = Vasudevan, Gayathri title = MGNREGA in the Times of COVID-19 and Beyond: Can India do More with Less? date = 2020-09-08 keywords = India; MGNREGA; work; worker summary = This paper makes a case for reorienting a small portion of MGNREGA spending to create micro-entrepreneurs out of the ''reverse migrating'' masons, electricians, plumbers and others in rural areas who can directly contribute to augmenting health and sanitization infrastructure in the likely new normal.

In Žižek''s second chapter, ''Why Are We Tired All the Time?'', he describes three groups of workers: ''self-employed and self-exploited workers in the developed West, debilitating assembly line work in the Third World, [and] the growing domain of human care workers in all its forms where exploitation abounds...Each of the three groups implies a specific mode of being tired and overworked'' (23). In the USA, Žižek''s hope for a unified humanity appears to be an unrealized dream. While we have not unified humanity, maybe the pandemic driven discovery of the necessity of quiet time, personal coping tools, authentic love, and the beauty of basics will move us one step closer towards each other and Žižek''s vision of global solidarity. doi = 10.1007/s42438-020-00161-0 id = cord-011046-yccdlahn author = Williamson, Emma title = Secondary Trauma: Emotional Safety in Sensitive Research date = 2020-01-07 keywords = GBV; impact; researcher; work summary = Clearly, examining this type of data for analysis is ''part of the job'' of a researcher, and this will be examined shortly, but in the course of conducting this type of work, even if desk based, there will be times when researchers may need additional support to process the emotions they experience from dealing with such information and in order to prevent burnout, as described in the background section.

The financial fragility of households and the rising proportion of people becoming obese calls for intensified efforts, both by individuals and employers to create financial buffers and keep on investing in health. The financial fragility of organizations is a wake-up call that a short-term focus on efficiency can be counterproductive and may overturn the efforts to start working longer. To correct this state of affairs, societies can resort to different measures such as the long-term route of investing in financial literacy (Kaiser & Menkhoff, 2017) , but they can also take a more direct approach, such as by making supplementary pension savings by employers mandatory, or by nudging and informing workers in the direction of making their households more financially stable (Clark, Morrill, & Allen, 2012) . doi = 10.1093/workar/waaa011
