Abstract:
Work-related injuries and illnesses may lead to absenteeism, which affects the level of productivity. The purpose of this study was to determine the success of an employee workplace training program on work-related injury and illness rates at selected federal districts within a federal organization. Newman's model, which describes internal and external factors that may have an effect on an individual's health, was the framework that guided this project. A pre-post design was used to compare data from 2 publically available data sets, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration Illness an

In our legal system, fundamental rights to life and health of workers are important legallyprotected goods that cannot be disregarded.

Abstract:
Cette thèse de sociologie est consacrée à la retraite des agriculteurs. Par-delà leur diversité, les non-salariés de l'agriculture partagent a priori deux caractéristiques : un statut d'emploi qui les affranchit d'un lien de subordination juridique à l'égard d'un donneur d'ordre, d'une part, et un fort attachement à la valeur travail, d'autre part. Ce surcroît d'autonomie et d'identification au travail peut laisser penser que la retraite constitue à la fois une affaire de responsabilité individuelle - ils créent leurs propres risques, à eux de s'en protéger - et une préoccupation subsidiaire.
