Abstract:
For subsequent births, women who have experienced previous caesarean section facea choice between elective caesarean section and trial of labour. The study reported inthis paper utilises Australian hospital data to compare birth outcomes and healthsystem costs of these two options. Although trial of labour is more expensive if the resultis an emergency caesarean section, high rates of successful vaginal delivery mean that,overall, trial of labour is found to be 30- per cent less expensive than elective caesareansection. It is estimated that trial of labour remains the most cost-effective optio

Abstract:
Prices and costs are often the main points of interest in a typical competitiveness analysis. If studying prices cover the inflation and exchange rate perspectives, studying costs usually covers the relationship between labour costs and labour productivity. Strictly focusing on the labour side within the cost analysis does not offer a complete cost-overview of the production process. In this paper we try to complement the toolbox for assessing competitiveness in Slovenia and the rest of the euro area countries by constructing a unit capital cost index (UKC).

AbstractTraditionally, collective defined benefit pension schemes have played an important role in the provision of pensions. Various trends such as population ageing put these schemes under serious pressure, however.

Abstract:
The objective of this study was to analyse the productivity cost savings associated with mitigation of particulate emissions, as an input to a cost-benefit analysis. Reduced emissions of particulate matter (PM2.5) may reduce the incidence of diseases related to air pollution and potentially increase productivity as a result of better health. Based on data from epidemiological studies, we modelled the impact of air pollution on four different diseases: coronary heart disease, stroke, lung cancer, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. We identified individuals with these diseases and modell

Abstract:
Segmented markets of sub-optimal size existing in fishery value chain do not ensure sizeable private investment in the different stages of the value chain in Nigeria. Supply-demand gaps are increasingly being filled by imports, thus dampening prospects for increased revenue generation by actors in the chain. Market failures in the fish value chain limited capability and performance of small scale fish enterprises at the various stages of the chain. As such this study is prompted by the need to determine and compare profitability of actors along the fish value chain with the use of survey data

Abstract:
This paper reports a case study on labour substitution by a small-scale farmer on his farm in the Western Cape Province of South Africa that has been owned by descendants of the same family since the early 1800s. Production techniques used on the farm have moved from labour-intensive to capital-intensive. The first step towards mechanisation was taken early in 1988, when some of the farm workers did not return after their annual holidays and before the harvesting season. One of the decisive reasons for the change in production techniques was a labour strike during the harvesting season in 2000

Building on yourself to build for another: An architectural analysis of the graves from the North Cemetery of Ayios Vasilios. 
 For this paper I have systematically examined the construction process of the tombs from the North Cemetery of Ayios Vasilios (Laconia, Greece) using a method called architectural energetics. This method of analysis translates an architectural unit into labour costs. The calculated workhours have been combined with a precedence diagram in order to closely examine the level of human interaction, rather than to just compare labour costs. The study concludes that th

Yams as a stable food crops do not only serve as integral vehicle for food security, but also as a source of income, and employer of labour in the producing areas in Nigeria. Lack of finance, inadequate farm inputs, storage facilities and high cost of labour are identified as the primary constraints to yam production in the country. This article deals with most of the determinants of yam production, constraints and the importance yam products in Nigeria. The findings of the study suggest that farm size, producer price, fertilizer use, yield (Hg/Ha), and economic growth have a positive influenc

Labour markets in the EU have been profoundly changed. Recently, unemployment rates have declined due to the economic recovery. The economic growth that Europe has been enjoying is extremely labour-intensive. Statistical data show that unemployment has been falling for several consecutive years. Labour markets of the former Eastern European countries are attractive for investors for their skilled labour and low cost of labour. Nevertheless, there are processes and phenomena occurring which can have damaging consequences to the labour markets. The present study compares current trends in the Sl

Abstract:
In the study summarized here, estimates were made of the costs of employing labour in Australian industries for the years 1968-69 to 1985-86. The estimates include wages and five types of on-costs. They imply that the on-cost share in labour costs increased sharply in each industry over the period 1968-69 to 1974-75. Since 1974-75, on-cost shares have continued to grow but at moderate rates. The estimates rely on a wide variety of data sources and involve numerous interpolations and extrapolations. They are suitable for the analysis of medium-term trends rather than annual movements.

Abstract:
The implementation of multistage sampling design is a good strategy to achieve the gain in efficiency of survey cost. However, in terms of sampling efficiency, it leads to the loss of precision indicated by the higher sampling variance compared to SRS design. Design effect measures the ratio of actual variance to the variance of SRS and can be decomposed to the effect of sample weight and the effect of clustering. This study aims to analyse the effect of sample weight and the effect of clustering on the estimation of labour variables resulted from the National labour Force Survey of Indonesia.

The study was done on the economic analysis of tomato, brinjal and bhendi cultivation with a comparison of income, access to technology of supermarket and traditional market supply farmers in the two selected districts. The per hectare cost of cultivation of the three selected vegetables on supermarket and traditional market supply farms revealed that cost of cultivation of vegetables was remarkably higher for traditional farms than supermarket supplying farms. This was mainly due to excessive use of manures and fertilizers, irrigation, plant protection chemicals and human labour. The returns
