Abstract:
This article explores the emergence, operation and outcomes of social partnership in the National Health Service (NHS) in Scotland and Wales. Social partnership emerged in the NHS following political devolution in 1998 which transferred powers to left-wing governments in Scotland and Wales. These arrangements helped improve health services, modernize industrial relations and enhance staff terms and conditions. In NHS Scotland, union participation in strategic decisions produced extensive co-operation to dismantle the internal health market, improve services and enhance staff terms and conditio

Abstract:
Sex differences in mortality among historical populations are an intriguing yet neglected issue. In mid-nineteenth-century England and Wales, although women and girls enjoyed an overall longevity advantage, they tended to die at higher rates than males at ages when modern life tables show female advantage. We use multilevel modeling to analyze these sex differences in mortality. We identify significant regional variation, related to local demographic conditions, economic structure, and the nature of female employment. But some regional variation remains unexplained, suggesting the need for fur

ABSTRACTThe ‘Labour and the Poor’ investigations of the Morning Chronicle newspaper, which charted social conditions in towns outside London in 1849–51, subjected Irish migrants in Britain to a hostile journalistic gaze. In the case of the iron-manufacturing town of Merthyr Tydfil in south Wales, the minority Irish ethnic identity was defined by observers in terms of exclusion from an emerging mass commodity culture and in opposition to the native working class. This early investigative journalism deployed some conventions of the contemporary novel that were familiar to its mainly middle-class

In recent years the government has introduced youth justice policy which claims to draw on the philosophy of restorative justice as an alternative to punitive sanctions. Referral orders were implemented nationally in 2002 and purportedly represent a significant policy commitment to restorative justice. Rather than incarcerating offenders or deterring them through punishment, referral orders aim to encourage them to understand the consequences of their behaviour, make amends and re-join the law abiding community. This is purportedly achieved through a youth offender panel (panel meeting) run by

This thesis has investigated the offence of robbery. Specifically, the semi-systematic review analysed commercial armed robbery, grouping offenders in terms of an apparent scale of professionalism to amateurism. Within armed robbery, target hardening strategies appear to have reduced opportunities for professionals, with a corresponding increase in amateur armed robbers fuelled by drug habits. The empirical study found that levels of interaction used by an offender with a victim increased with offender age.

Within each chapter there is a necessary concentration on the earlier period of the AMA's history when the impetus to create acceptable conditions of service was at its most imperative. Th

Abstract Life expectancy has increased dramatically over the last century as a consequence of improved social conditions, better nutrition, and advances in medicine. A baby born in 1900 had a life expectancy of under 50 years whereas a child born in 2000 will be expected to live for over 80 years (Central Statistics Office: Social Trends 1996). This dramatic change is due in part to the fact that infectious diseases are now both preventable and curable and are no longer a major cause of death.

Abstract Child Care Law in England and Wales has recently been radically changed by the Children Act 1989. In Scotland recent changes have been minor and piece-meal.

Many are out of keeping with modern social conditions and attitudes. It is clear, however, that the pressure for real change has been building and is long overdue.

Abstract:
The transport of goods by sea has, since its origins, had to contend with three significant challenges: adverse navigation conditions, deterioration, and, finally, theft, which varied in frequency and severity depending on the situation. Human genius has tried, over the centuries, to eliminate, or at least mitigate, these three critical issues with solutions that have correlated and that have taken into account various aspects alongside the condition of conduction and unloading/loading of goods.The West India Docks in London provide a unique case study in addressing the problem of cargo protec

Abstract:
Green walls are bio-filters developed to enhance air quality. Often, these walls form the base from which plants are grown; and the plant-wall system helps to remove both gaseous and particulate air pollutants. Green walls can be found indoors or outdoors and they are classified as passive or active systems. Their benefits include temperature reduction, improvement of air quality and reduction of air pollution, oxygen production as well as the social and psychological wellbeing. They can produce changes in the ambient conditions (temperature and humidity) of the air layers around them which cr

Abstract Brazil has a wide mesh of pipelines, of which more than 8,500 kilometers are operated by TRANSPETRO. Pipeline right-of-ways cross a variety of soil relief, including the Serra do Mar, a formation of scarps, in order to transport petroleum products from the coast to the largest cities in the country. Anchored retaining walls are commonly necessary for soil stabilization. An efficient risk management is required for these structures, to avoid social, economic and environmental damages in case of poor performance. A case study of 77 anchored walls was presented.

In this paper, we will investigate social factors that indirectly affect ship energy efficiency, intended or not. These include fleet management, charter party agreements, piracy, regulatory factors such as Emission Control Areas, port congestion and port awareness, economic factors such as cost of fuel and charter rates, and human factors (safety, comfort, attitude, and education). I call them “social factors” because they all have the characteristic of being created by our society, rather than being driven by the laws of physics.

Abstract:
Rheumatic and musculoskeletal disorders (RMDs) affect approximately one-third of the UK population, yet access to timely and equitable care remains inconsistent. National audits have highlighted significant variations in service provision and health outcomes, shaped by individual socio-demographic characteristics and place-based factors. Rural populations, comprising around 20% of the UK, face unique challenges due to geographic remoteness, centralised specialist services, and an ageing demographic. Workforce constraints and service accessibility further exacerbate these disparities, limiting

A new ESRI study, commissioned by Pobal, examines socioeconomic conditions across communities in Ireland. Using Census data, the study examines how potential barriers to social inclusion have changed over time and if disadvantaged communities are particularly adversely affected. Findings from the new research report, published today, were collated using the Pobal HP Deprivation Index and two waves of Census data (2016 and 2022).

Uruguay implemented an ambitious financial inclusion program that included a fiscal stimulus through VAT rebates and subsidies for point of sale (POS) adoption. One of its main provisions banned cash payment of wages and social benefits and forced financial institutions to open wage-accounts with extremely beneficial conditions. In the aggregate, the number of debit cards transactions increased sharply. We test the wage-banking channel of the financial program exploiting differences in the treatment intensity between public sector and private sector workers. We find that while the provision of
