“…Este hecho refuerza aquellos planteamientos que afi rman que es en las pequeñas empresas donde se desarrollan buena parte de las prácticas y estrategias gerenciales que generan más inseguridad y discontinuidad laboral (Bilbao, 1999). Tanto este perfi l como el de discontinuidad femenina, ambos con situaciones frecuentes de desempleo y rupturas en la continuidad laboral, son los que pueden llegar a poner en duda la propia noción de «trayectoria laboral» (Heinz, 2004).…”

El objetivo de la nota de investigación es mostrar en qué medida es posiblehablar en España de la existencia de trayectorias laborales permanentementeprecarias o discontinuas, más allá del conocido efecto edad. Apartir de las variables disponibles para el período 2001-2006 del Panel deDesigualdades de la Fundació Jaume Bofi ll se ha desarrollado un análisisde conglomerados combinado con un análisis de regresión logística. Losresultados de este análisis muestran que el género y la edad se encuentranentre las variables más importantes a la hora de determinar los itinerariosprecarios. Los resultados también parecer indicar la existencia deuna ruptura generacional en las trayectorias laborales, aunque la escasalongitud de las series disponibles no permite afi rmar que esta ruptura seaextensible a cualquier tipo de perfi l social.

“…Young people must take an active role in shaping their passage to employment. The resources needed to make a successful transition are developed in socialization contexts that promote planning and provide access to social capital (Heinz, 2003). Such contexts are not common among disadvantaged youth who need the most help in obtaining and maintaining work.…”

This study explores the role of informal mentoring (i.e., developing an important relationship with a non-parental adult) in the transition to full time employment among young adults (age 23-28). Multivariate analysis of the Add Health data reveals that mentoring is positively related to the likelihood of full time employment, and the relationship involves both selection and causation processes. Entrance into the world of work facilitates the development of mentoring relationships, especially among youth who identify work-related mentors after adolescence. These relationships have the potential for promoting attachment to the labor force. Mentoring relationships that develop outside of work settings and during adolescence have a positive impact on the odds of full time employment. The receipt of guidance and advice from mentors, as well as access to weak-tied mentoring relationships, teacher mentors, and friend mentors all contribute to the increased odds of employment in young adulthood. However, adolescent mentoring may be less effective among young women than it is among young men.

“…There are more possibilities for individual decisions and negotiations. Male and female careers, for example, are still 'linked lives' or 'interrelated life courses' (Krüger 2003) but these interrelations are less determined by traditional role models and are increasingly the subject of negotiations between partners (Heinz 2003). At the same time substantial changes in the economy and society, such as the ageing of the population, technological progress, international competition and increasing skill demands, impact on individual life courses.…”

The Welfare State and Life Transitions

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This book investigates the changing patterns and levels of social welfare systems through the lens of key life stage transitions. This provides an insight into the adequacy of welfare systems' response to the changing needs for support at these critical stages of life that shape future life course prospects.The focus on key life stages has three purposes. First it provides a lens through which to analyse a range of different dimensions of social welfare systems. It is at key life stages that social welfare systems are particularly needed to provide support in addition to or instead of employment or the family. These include the key life stages of preparing for and entering work, setting up independent households, surviving interruptions to work, in prime age, whether for parenthood, sickness or unemployment, and withdrawing from work into retirement. The support systems in place at these stages have major impacts in empowering or preventing citizens from fulfilling their potential and their aspirations. These support mechanisms are critical for issues of equity and social inclusion. A focus on key life stages also facilitates an evaluation of how social welfare systems vary in the effectiveness of their support for different groups, defined, for example, by class, gender, age and generation.Second, the key life stage approach can help identify the impact of potentially conflicting pressures for change. These conflicts arise from the short-term pressures to reduce costs or to minimise open unemployment for political reasons, both of which, for different reasons, may jeopardise opportunities to engage in longer-term strategic change. This long-term change is required to keep social welfare systems in step with the major changes actually taking place in the life course, and in the associated behaviour and aspirations of European citizens. The European Employment Strategy (EES) espouses the need for long-term reform to ensure that welfare systems promote an active, and appropriately and flexibly skilled, M2322 -ANXO PRINT.indd 1 28/5/10 14:44:25
