Izvorni naučni rad Apstrakt Radno pravni status nastavnika u visokoškolskom sistemu predstavlja višedimenzionalni problem. Iako se često pravni sistem udaljava od matematike, tako da se matematika i ne izučava na studijama prava, u ovom slučaju matematičke relacije primenom Bulove algebre predstavljaju osnov za razrešenje problema u vezi statusa nastavnika.Pretpostavke koje se iz normativnih akata mogu uzeti, uspostavljaju vezu među sobom i kao rezultat može se iznaći rešenje ovog problema, koje će u radu biti prezentovano. SummaryThe working legal status of teachers in the higher education system is a multidimensional problem. Although often the legal system is moving away from mathematics, so that mathematics is not studied in law studies, in this case the mathematical relations using the Boolean algebra represent the basis for resolving problems regarding the status of teachers. Assumptions that can be taken from the normative acts, establish a relationship among themselves and as a result, a solution to this problem can be found, which will be presented in the paper.

“…Research has also shown that faculty of retirement age can maintain some level of scholarly productivity long after the typical retirement age range of 62–65 years (Dorfman , ). Dorfman found that those professors, who worked beyond age 70, enjoyed their work and felt their departmental and university environments were supportive of maintaining their scholarly work including conducting grant supported research.…”

“…Prior research on academic physicians has primarily been limited to examining findings from survey questionnaires pointing to important concerns regarding planning and the balancing of personal and work time (Stearns, Kelly, Gjerde, Stearns, & Shore, 2013) as well as concerns about organizational injustice and ethical=moral distress within the work environment (Pololi, Krupat, Civian, Ash, & Brennan, 2012). Qualitative research of nonmedical faculty has focused on reasons for continuing to work (Dorfman, 2000) or to retire (Dorfman, 2009). To our knowledge, no qualitative study has explored the perspective of academic physicians regarding their perceptions of retirement and strategies for successful later life transitions.…”

For individuals with strong work identities, the decision to retire can be particularly challenging. For academic physicians, retirement is an important personal decision that also has far-reaching implications for the healthcare system. This is because academic physicians are responsible for producing the research from which key medical decisions are made, for training future healthcare providers, and for providing specialized care for patients. For this study, we conducted focus groups with academic physicians from a large research university in Canada and then performed inductive thematic analyses to examine perceptions and concerns about later life career transitions. This study highlights tensions between professional experiences for the next generation of physicians and individual struggles with personal identity. Findings suggest improvements to institutional programs that support flexible, agentive, and respectful retirement transitions will not only be beneficial but necessary as medical and university systems continue to grapple with issues of balanced recruitment and succession.Academic physicians produce much of the research from which key medical decisions are made. They also play a critical role in the healthcare system by providing specialized and advanced care for patients and by educating future physicians. The uniquely demanding and distinguished role that this elite subgroup of physicians fills renders their retirement an important later life transition with implications at individual and societal levels.
