Previous issue date: 2009-08-19 / This present dissertation related to the line of research Teaching Staff Formation and Professionalization analyzes the practices and the representations of those teachers and learners prisoners in the Prison Complex of the Aparecida de Goiânia, in a context which the population of the prison is involved and it is constituted majority by stigmatized individuals according to a society that in a paradox way, at the same time, oppresses and fears them. Most of them are excluded and marginalized, without schooling and come from poor and unprotected social conditions. The research has as a goal to analyze the speech of those prisoners that have participated of a process of literacy inside the Prison Complex of the Aparecida de Goiânia, in a period of time from July 2007 to June 2008, the process of
understanding their practices and their representations of reading, it was considered as a privileged source the proper speech of the teachers and learners inside the carcere
environment. It is a qualitative research wich the methodology and the theory content are based on the analyze of the discursive representations from studies by Bakhtin, Vygotsky, Foucault, Goffman, Bourdieu, Certeau, Freire and Chartier, among many others authors who
also helped to base scientifically the results and the evidences carried out along this research. The data collected in order to make the analyze, took place inside the Prison Complex of the Aparecida de Goiania, and it includes the Provisional Prison House (Casa de Prisão Provisória) and the Prison Coronel Odenir Guimarães (Penitenciária Odenir Guimarães) located in the city of Aparecida de Goiania, in the state of Goias, they were collected from experiences lived along and after the time when those literacy tasks were happening. After selecting a sample for the qualitative research, semi structured interviews were carried out and
recorded with sixteen prisoners, eight of them performed as teachers and eight were considered learners. The analyze of the practices and representations of young and adult
reading, deprived of freedom pointed out that even under the bad conditions that the research was carried out, it was possible to teach reading and writing 64% of this group of prisoners, and also they still have a great search through the world of reading by keeping themselves studying.The analyses has also demonstrated that the bad and precarious conditions of the carcere interferes in the process of teaching and learning, as a result the readers were banned of the activity of reading. In this sense, the research points out the need of encouragement of habits of reading in a proper environment, formal and informal, as a component of a public policy aimed to young and adults education inside prison sites, not only in Aparecida de Goiânia, as well as in any other city in Brazil / A presente dissertação, ligada à linha de pesquisa Formação e Profissionalização Docente , analisa as práticas e representações de leitura dos detentos alfabetizadores e
alfabetizados do Complexo Prisional de Aparecida de Goiânia, dentro de um contexto que envolve uma população carcerária constituída em sua maioria por sujeitos estigmatizados pela
sociedade que, paradoxalmente, os oprime e se sente por eles atemorizada. São indivíduos majoritariamente excluídos, marginalizados, pouco escolarizados e socialmente
desfavorecidos. A pesquisa tem como objetivo analisar o discurso dos detentos que participaram de um processo de alfabetização dentro do Complexo Prisional de Aparecida de
Goiânia, no período de julho de 2007 a junho de 2008, para compreender as suas práticas e representações de leitura, tendo como fontes privilegiadas a própria fala dos alfabetizadores e alfabetizados no ambiente do cárcere. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa em que a metodologia e o aporte teórico estão fundamentados na análise das representações discursivas a partir dos estudos de Bakhtin, Vygotsky, Foucault, Goffman, Bourdieu, Certeau, Freire e
Chartier, dentre diversos outros autores que também ajudaram a alicerçar cientificamente as constatações feitas ao longo desta pesquisa. A coleta dos dados para análise foi realizada no interior do Complexo Prisional que abrange a Casa de Prisão Provisória (CPP) e a Penitenciária Cel. Odenir Guimarães (POG), localizados no município de Aparecida de
Goiânia, Estado de Goiás, a partir de experiências vividas durante e após o referido período em que aconteceram os trabalhos de alfabetização. Após a seleção de amostra para a pesquisa foram realizadas entrevistas semi-estruturadas gravadas com dezesseis detentos, dos quais oito atuaram como alfabetizadores e oito foram considerados alfabetizados. A análise das práticas e representações de leitura dos jovens e adultos em regime de privação da liberdade demonstrou que, mesmo nas condições de precariedade em que foi realizado o trabalho de alfabetização, foi possível alfabetizar 64% desse grupo de detentos que ainda tem muito a
buscar no mundo da leitura, através da continuidade dos seus estudos. A análise demonstrou ainda que as condições precárias e deficientes do presídio interferem no processo de ensino e aprendizagem, resultando na interdição das leituras e dos leitores. Nesse sentido, a pesquisa ressalta a necessidade do incentivo às práticas de leitura em ambientes adequados, formais ou informais, como componente de uma política pública de Educação de Jovens e Adultos dentro dos espaços prisionais existentes não só em Aparecida de Goiânia, como também em outras cidades do Brasil

Audit Committee Director TurnoverSinghvi, Meghna 11 July 2011 (has links)
Actions by both private sector organizations and legislators in recent years have highlighted the importance of the audit committee of the board of directors of corporations in the financial reporting process. For example, the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 has multiple sections that deal with the composition and functioning of audit committees. My dissertation examines multiple issues related to the composition of audit committees.
In the first two parts of my dissertation, I examine the stock market reactions to disclosures of audit committee appointments and departures in the 8-Ks filed with the SEC during 2008 and 2009. I find that there is a positive stock market reaction to the appointment of audit committee directors who are financial experts. The second essay investigates the cumulative abnormal return to departure of audit committee directors. I find that when an accounting expert leaves the audit committee, the market reaction is significantly negative. These results are consistent with regulators’ concerns related to having directors with audit, accounting and other financial expertise on corporate audit committees.
The third essay of my dissertation examines the changes in audit committee composition in the last decade. I find that while the increase in audit committee size is relatively modest, there has been a significant increase in the number of audit committee experts and the frequency of audit committee meetings over the past decade; interestingly, such increase in the number of meetings has persisted even after the media focus on the auditing profession, in the immediate aftermath of the Enron and Andersen failures, have waned. My results show that audit committee composition and its role continues to evolve with regulatory and other corporate governance related changes.

An investigation into the high turnover rate of pharmacists in the South African pharmaceutical industryRivombo, Samson January 2013 (has links)
The main objective of this study was to investigate factors contributing to employee turnover in the South African pharmaceutical industry and to suggest strategies to minimize it. Employee turnover is a persistent problem facing both public and private organizations in South Africa. In addition to the costs incurred when an employee resigns, losing employees results in a loss of knowledge, skills and experience. Numerous studies have been undertaken globally on this topic. However, this problem continues to adversely affect organizations in several ways. Schwab (1991) suggests that this is because there are no clear resolutions yet to this challenge. Based on literature review conducted, there is no study undertaken in South Africa attempting to address this problem. The purpose of this study was to identify factors contributing to high turnover rate of pharmacists in South Africa (the pharmaceutical industry in particular) and to recommend strategies to address this problem. A quantitative research approach was followed when addressing this problem. Literature review was conducted on employee turnover and a questionnaire was developed. The questionnaire was used as a measuring instrument. Following a non-probability, convenience sampling method, two pharmaceutical companies in Gauteng and one in the Eastern Cape were surveyed. The results were analysed by a statistician using Epi-info and stata software as tools for statistical analysis. The following factors were found to be key factors contributing to employee turnover in the pharmaceutical industry: (i) lack of career advancement opportunities, (ii) uncompetitive salary packages, (iii) perceived inequity reflecting leadership challenges, (iv) insufficient recognition for good performance, (v) stress, and (vi) insufficient retention strategies. An effective retention strategy should address all factors that may contribute to employee turnover. A retention strategy that combines competitive salary packages, opportunities for learning and career advancement, recognition, equity and support structures (to deal with stress), should be used in the pharmaceutical industry. This will assist in creating a motivating climate, which is a pre-requisite for job satisfaction and, in turn, employee retention.

An assessment of the attitudes influencing employees' intention to quit in two Port Elizabeth public sector hospitalsOdeyemi, Hannah Olubunmi Unknown Date (has links)
Research problem: The Port Elizabeth hospital complex is faced with many staff-related challenges including the difficulty of retaining staff. Factors such as salaries, work environment, work injury, work related stress, personal growth and development opportunities, advancement and promotion opportunities, relationships with supervisor(s), are among the issues that contribute and have been found to be some of the factors affecting employees’ perceptions and attitudes towards their work and ultimately to their intentions to stay or leave. Research objectives: To address the research problem, research objectives and questions were established. The main objective of the research was to investigate the perceptions and attitudes influencing the employees’ intention to quit their jobs within the hospital complex. The key perceptions and attitudes that were measured were; job satisfaction, perceived organisational support and organisational commitment. The secondary objective of the study was to determine, from a list of predetermined factors, which were related to job satisfaction, perceived organisational support and organisational commitment and the intention to quit. Research questions: Four research questions were established and these were: What are the employee perceptions and attitudes towards the organisation and their work in the organisation? In particular how satisfied are the employees with their jobs (job satisfaction), how committed are they to the organisation (organisational commitment), how do they perceive the support within the organisation (perceived organisational support) and do they intend to remain with the organisation (intention to quit measured as the intention to stay). What are the most important factors contributing to job satisfaction, perceived organisational support, organisational commitment and intention to quit? (Measured as the intention to stay). What is the relationship between the sub-groups, identified as gender, race, nationality, occupational level, age, hospital, and length of tenure and job satisfaction, perceived organisational support and organisational commitment? What is the relationship between the sub-groups, identified as gender, race, nationality, occupational level, age, hospital, and length of tenure and intention to quit (measured as the intention to stay)? Research design: The nature of this research was a descriptive study collecting quantitative data. A self-administered survey questionnaire was used to collect information regarding employee perceptions and attitudes towards various aspects of their working conditions, their perceptions and attitudes towards the organisation and their intention to remain with the organisation. Major findings: The result of the survey showed that organisational commitment and positive organizational support are practically significantly positively correlated with the intention to stay. However, it was discovered that job satisfaction was statistically significantly positively correlated to intention to stay. The nine factors that were measured were found to be antecedents for all the three constructs of job satisfaction, organizational commitment and perceived organizational support. However, the factors that were also correlated with the intention to stay were promotion opportunities, nature of the work, communication and leader-member exchange.

Previous issue date: 2015-05-26 / Com a transição da Administração Pública Burocrática para a Administração Pública Gerencial, o setor público tem passado por mudanças que reforçaram a necessidade de estudos sobre seus servidores. O novo perfil destes servidores, constituído a partir da profissionalização da burocracia e da instituição da seleção meritocrática e universal, tem preocupado os gestores no que tange ao fenômeno da rotatividade de pessoal, principalmente em decorrência da motivação dos servidores em relação ao trabalho. Diante deste panorama, definiu-se como objetivo geral da pesquisa verificar os aspectos motivacionais que impactaram no desligamento voluntário dos servidores estatutários (docentes e técnicos administrativos) da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, no período de 2010 a 2013. E para o alcance deste objetivo foram estabelecidos quatro objetivos específicos: a) traçar o perfil dos servidores que se desligaram voluntariamente da UFPE no período de 2010 a 2013, realizado a partir de dados disponibilizados pela Pró-Reitoria de Gestão de Pessoas e Qualidade de Vida da UFPE; b) calcular a taxa de rotatividade de pessoal nos setores da UFPE, a partir do número de desligamentos voluntários, no período de 2010 a 2013; c) identificar os principais fatores que influenciaram os servidores da UFPE a solicitar desligamento, a partir da análise de sua motivação para o trabalho, à luz da Teoria de Victor Vroom, realizado a partir de questionários aplicados a servidores que se desligaram da UFPE no período do estudo, com base na revisão de literatura e na Teoria da Expectativa; e d) verificar a percepção de gestores de pessoal da UFPE acerca da rotatividade de servidores na instituição, realizado a partir de questionários aplicados a gestores de pessoal da PROGEPE/UFPE. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de natureza quantitativa e qualitativa, que utilizou a estatística descritiva e a análise de conteúdo, tendo a UFPE como estudo de caso. A partir de seus resultados, foi constatado o baixo nível de satisfação com o trabalho dos servidores que se desligaram da UFPE, endossando a relação inversa entre satisfação e probabilidade de desligamento voluntário. Foi observado também que as principais causas para o desligamento de pessoal da UFPE são referentes às questões financeiras, quais sejam: salário e benefícios e plano de cargos e carreiras; entretanto, foram apontados alguns fatores que podem ser melhorados em decorrência de ações desenvolvidas pela UFPE, tais como: condições do local de trabalho; ambiente de trabalho/ clima organizacional; melhoria na alocação de servidores ingressantes na instituição; criação de canais de comunicação com servidores e candidatos a concursos da UFPE, entre outros. / With the transition of Bureaucratic Public Administration to Managerial Public Administration, the public sector has undergone changes reinforcing the need for studies about their government employees. The new profile of these employees, built from the professionalization of the bureaucracy and the institute of universal and meritocratic selection, has worried managers with regard to staff turnover phenomenon, mainly due to the motivation of employee in relation to work. With this conjuncture, it was defined as a general objective of the research verify the motivational aspects that impacted on voluntary resignation of statutory employees (teachers and administrative technician) of the Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, in the period 2010 to 2013. And to achieve this objective were established four specific objectives: a) to trace the profile of employees who left voluntarily the UFPE in the 2010 to 2013 period, held from data provided by the Pró-Reitoria de Gestão de Pessoas e Qualidade de Vida – UFPE; b) calculate the staff turnover rate in the sectors of UFPE, from the number of voluntary resignation in the 2010 to 2013 period; c) identify key factors influencing the UFPE servants to request resignation from the analysis of their motivation for the job, according to the Theory of Victor Vroom, held from questionnaires given to servants who left the UFPE in the period the study, based on literature review and Expectancy Theory; d) verify the perception of UFPE personnel managers about the turnover of servants in the institution, held from questionnaires given to personnel managers PROGEPE/UFPE. It is an exploratory research, quantitative and qualitative, which used descriptive statistics and content analysis, having UFPE as a case study. From their results, it was found the low level of satisfaction with the work of the servants who left the UFPE, endorsing the inverse relationship between satisfaction and likelihood of voluntary resignation. It was also observed that the main causes for personal shutdown of UFPE are related to financial matters, namely: wages and benefits and plan for jobs and careers; however, it was pointed out some factors that can be improved as a result of actions taken by UFPE, namely: workplace conditions; work environment / organizational climate; improvement in the allocation of incoming servers in the institution, creation of channels of communication with servers and candidates in competitions of UFPE , among others.

A Chilling Example? Uruguay, Philip Morris International, and WHO's Framework Convention on Tobacco ControlRussell, Andrew, Wainwright, Megan, Mamudu, Hadii 01 June 2015 (has links)
The World Health Organization's Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) is the first international public health treaty to address the global spread of tobacco products. Ethnographic research at the fourth meeting of the FCTC's Conference of the Parties in Uruguay highlights the role of the FCTC in recalibrating the relationship between international trade and investment agreements and those of global public health. Specifically, we chart the origins and development of the Punta del Este Declaration, tabled by Uruguay at the conference, to counter a legal request by Philip Morris International, the world's largest tobacco transnational, for arbitration by the International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes over Uruguay's alleged violations of several international trade and investment treaties. We argue that medical anthropologists should give greater consideration to global health governance and diplomacy as a potential counterweight to the 'politics of resignation' associated with corporate capitalism.

Do Auditors Respond to Information Disorder on Social Media? Evidence from M&A RumorsCao, Yu 07 1900 (has links)
Social media is becoming a popular disclosure channel with higher speed, reach, and extensive network effects. A negative information role of social media is to increase the spread of information disorder defined as false information or truth presented with the intent to harm. This study investigates whether and how auditors react to information disorder on social media, in the context of clients' merger and acquisition (M&A) rumors. I document that information disorder is positively associated with audit fees but not associated with audit delay and the likelihood of audit resignations. Additionally, increased social media attention can elevate the level of risk associated with rumors. I therefore predict that the associations will be more pronounced with greater social media influence. Using a manually collected Twitter rumor subsample, I find mixed results. This dissertation contributes to the auditing literature by documenting how external auditors incorporate social media-induced information disorder into client retention and pricing decisions.

Ondersoek na redes waarom opgeleide intensiewesorgverpleegkundiges buite die intensiewesorgomgewing werkCoetzee, Laetitia 01 January 2002 (has links)
Text in Afrikaans / In hierdie beskrywende, verkennende en kontekstuele studie is ondersoek gedoen na redes
waarom opgeleide intensiewesorgverpleegkundiges uit die intensiewesorgomgewing bedank en
buite die intensiewesorgomgewing werk in die noordelike gedeelte van Gauteng. Doelwitte vir
die studie was om die faktore te bepaal wat bydra tot die bedanking uit die
intensiewesorgeenheid, die identifisering van die nie-verpleegkundige beroepe wat tans beoefen
word en die bepaling van die faktore wat bydra tot die beoefening van 'n nie-verpleegkundige
beroep. Die data is ingesamel deur middel van 'n vraelys wat voltooi is deur opgeleide
intensiewesorgverpleegkundiges wat bedank het uit die intensiewesorgomgewing. Die
sneeubalsteekproeftegniek is gebruik. Die data-analise het getoon dat redes vir bedanking uit die
intensiewesorgomgewing die volgende insluit: onvoldoende salarisse, te veel stres en
emosionele uitputting, ongerieflike werkure, personeeltekort en onbevredigende
werkomstandighede. Daar is bevind dat verpleeg-sessiewerk steeds deur die respondente gedoen
word, al werk hulle huidig voltyds buite die intensiewesorgomgewing. / In this exploratory, descriptive and contextual study research has been done to establish the
reasons why intensive care nursing personnel resign from the intensive care environment in the
northern Gauteng region. The researcher aimed to establish the factors that contributed to the
resignations from the intensive care environment, to identify the non-nursing careers currently
being practised by former intensive care nursing staff and to establish the factors that influenced
them to practice non-nursing careers. The data was collected through questionnaires completed
by former intensive care nursing personnel. The snowball test sampling method has been used.
Data analysis has shown the following to be inter alia the reasons for the resignations from the
intensive care environment: insufficient income, exhaustion and emotional stress, inconvenient
working hours, staff shortages and unsatisfactory working conditions. One finding is that
respondents are still doing nursing session work although they are working full-time in nonnursing
capacities. / Health Studies / M.A. (Verpleegkunde)
