Abstract:

This work aims to estimate the probability of bankruptcy of female entrepreneurs in Italy, particularly in the Campania region.  Women who run businesses always continue to be disregarded by banks when applying for a loan due to several problems including: the small size of their companies and the low number of employees.  The companies were selected by Aida. Through the T-test the probability of bankruptcy of male and female companies was compared, however, the variables that have the greatest impact on gender were examined with the regression model. It was found that,

Abstract:

France and Italy, as advanced economies within the European Union, have embraced Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) to stimulate growth and integration into the global market. This study examines the relationship between FDIs and wage implications for female employees in these contexts, considering distinct economic policies, industry specializations, and European Union integration. By analyzing gender-specific wage data over multiple years, the research highlights potential disparities and dynamic patterns influenced by economic fluctuations and policy changes.

Abstract:

The COVID-19 outbreak has taken a heavy toll on the mental well-being of healthcare workers. This study aims to describe a psychological screening program developed at a large University Hospital in Milan, Italy, and assess the psychological outcomes of employees and associated factors. A survey was electronically conducted among hospital employees between July and October 2020. Sociodemographic data, information about COVID-19 experience and three scales assessing anxiety (STAI-Y1), depression (HAM-D) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PCL-5) were collected.

Abstract:

Gender equality is enshrined in the Italian Constitution, particularly in Article 3, which emphasizes both formal and substantive equality between genders. However, recent data from the Istituto Nazionale per la Previdenza Sociale (INPS, 2024) reveal that gender equality in Italy’s labor market remains elusive, especially regarding employment and pay. The employment rate for women is just 57%, significantly lower than the European average by thirteen percentage points. Moreover, while the gender pay gap appears modest, equal to 4.3%, this statistic can misleadingly suggest minimal wage dispari

Purpose Female entrepreneurship has been part of the political agenda internationally. Public entities should promote entrepreneurship in general, and female entrepreneurship in particular, with dedicated resources and programs.

Relational capital is particularly relevant when it comes to female entrepreneurship.

Despite the numerous advances made in Italy over the years in the study of sexual harassment in the workplace (SHW), research has focused exclusively on victims, perpetrators, and their relationships, and not on the consequences that the experience of sexual harassment can produce in witnesses.

The most common way to waive obligations under ratified conventions is to denounce them.

There has been much debate about how to define the relationship between a domestic and/or care worker and her/his employer. It has been argued that the preferred definition by workers themselves is one that centers on work (Anderson 2000). In contrast, “fictive kinship” appears to be the employers’ almo

The COVID-19 evolution has forced the massive introduction of homeworking (HW) for most employees in the initial stages of the pandemic and then return to work, mainly due to the vaccination campaign.

This long-term prospective study aimed at investigating the effect of adaptation demands on a broad population of employees of a large Italian banking group in the job-related stress framework.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, many workers have been forced to work from home. In this situation, the boundaries between work and private life have become particularly blurred, and recovering from work was even more difficult than in traditional times, with negative consequences for workers’ health. Among the psychological experiences that might underlie the recovery process, mastery played a crucial role as people sought new stimuli and challenging situations. However, there are few articles that have explored the role of this specific recovery experience, its antecedents, and the health cons
