El índice de validez de contenido global fue 0.8690. Un total de 16 características definitorias alcanzaron carácter crítico (>0.80). CONCLUSIÓN: El presente estudio apoya la propuesta de elaborar un diagnóstico de enfermería para la respuesta humana al desempleo. IMPLICACIONES PRÁCTICAS: Los resultados obtenidos sugieren que la inclusión en la taxonomía NANDA-I del diagnóstico "trastorno por desempleo" permitiría a los profesionales de enfermería identificar el problema, sus causas y manifestaciones, y por lo tanto ofrecerían la información necesaria para planificar las intervenciones y resultados más pertinentes.

“…Thus, offshoring, along with other aspects of globalization, creates opportunities to advance one's career because it effectively broadens the market for talent. Offshoring among developed countries is most likely to be reciprocal, and workers in high-wage countries are complements rather than substitutes (Geishecker et al 2011). The quantitative magnitude of this effect is substantial because offshoring to the US, Canada, and other developed countries decreases employees' perceptions of poor promotion prospects by 24%.…”

“…13 It is notable that the estimates in Panel A of Table 2 do not reveal a significant impact of outsourcing on perceived uncertainty in the Finnish context. Previous evidence has related offshoring and other measures of globalization to job-loss fears (e.g., Scheve and Slaughter 2004;Geishecker et al 2011;Lurweg 2010). There is also some evidence for these effects from other Nordic countries.…”

“…Indeed, there is some previous support for the heterogeneity of the effects of offshoring. Geishecker et al (2011) reported that outsourcing to high-wage countries significantly improves the perceived level of job security among German employees, but offshoring to developing countries has the opposite effect. Furthermore, the underlying motivation for offshoring may have implications for its subsequent well-being effects.…”

TiivistelmäTutkimuksessa tarkastellaan toimintojen ulkoistamisen ja tehtävärakenteiden muutosten vaikutuksia työntekijöiden itsensä kokemiin työoloihin. Työoloja mitattiin useilla eri mittareilla. Tulokset perustuvat poikkeuksellisen rikkaaseen yhdistettyyn aineistoon. Tarkastelu osoittaa, että ulkoistaminen ulkomaille lisää työtehtävien häviämistä yrityksissä. Tämän ulkomaille ulkoistamisen suoran vaikutuksen lisäksi eriteltiin myös ulkoistamisen epäsuoria vaikutuksia niihin työntekijöi-hin, jotka onnistuvat säilyttämään työpaikkansa sellaisessa yrityksessä, joka on ulkoistanut toimintojaan. Ulkoistamisen epäsuorat vaikutukset ovat tulosten valossa suoria vaikutuksia huomattavasti heikompia. Tämän lisäksi epäsuorat vaikutukset työntekijöiden kokemaan hyvinvointiin eivät ole yksioikoisen negatiivisia. Ulkoistaminen toisiin teollisuusmaihin esim. parantaa selvästi suomalaisten työntekijöiden mahdollisuuksia edetä urallaan.

Terms of use: Documents in Zusammenfassung / AbstractThere has been an intense debate as to the effects of offshoring and global value chains on labor, with the debate centering around possible negative employment and income effects for the low(er) skilled in advanced economies. Although sociological and psychological research has shown that income falls far too short when it comes to subjective well-being (SWB), the globalization's impact on SWB has been surprisingly under-researched. This applies in particular to job satisfaction, including of those negatively affected by seeing their real income depressed. Against this backdrop, we develop a trade model that is capable of capturing job satisfaction in conjunction with the income and distributional effects of offshoring. Contrary to a great many beliefs, our theoretical considerations suggest that those remaining employed may be more satisfied with their jobs, even if suffering from increased competition and from more tasks being offshored. Running a cross-section logistic regression model that combines information on offshoring and job satisfaction, lends support to our theoretical explanations. Accordingly, job satisfaction is on average rated higher in countries with comparatively high offshoring activities. More disaggregated regressions get to the heart of the matter, which is a change in the characteristics of the remaining jobs. Our results stand up to extensive robustness checks with respect to different specifications, measures of globalization, and even when controlling for many of the usually suspected variables with reference to SWB.JEL-Klassifikation / JEL-Classification: F66, I31
