Challenges and benefits of working in teams – Interpersonal interactions in health care

Teamwork has become the accepted way of doing one’s job. This is so true even profession’s that were considered an exception are shifting towards teamwork. Apart from the well-known benefits, there seems to be a downside of the enforcement of this work strategy. Conflicts, frictions, frustration in working groups can affect the dignity, psychological or physical integrity of team members, generally referred to as psychological harassment, workplace bullying or mobbing. The outcomes of the phenomenon are various negative organizational responses. Health care is somewhat lagging behind in this shift towards working in teams, but with increasing specialization greater coordination is needed between health care professionals. Above all, the patient wishes to be more involved in the health care process. Research suggests that patient involvement and working in teams have a positive impact on effectiveness and patient mortality, respectively. One of the challenges for health care is to include the patient in the teamwork process as an equal member of the group and at the same time overcome the drawbacks mentioned above, in a setting where a traditional, paternalistic approach is still present and the vulnerability of the patient (and his/her dignity) is evident.

From State Terrorism to Petty Harassment: A Multi-Method Approach to Understanding Repression of Irish Republicans

Beginning in 1969, the Provisional Irish Republican Army conducted a paramilitary campaign designed to unite Northern Ireland with the Republic of Ireland, creating a 32 county democratic socialist republic. The Provisional IRA’s campaign officially ended in 2005, but former Provisionals and others who followed them continue to pursue armed struggle to this day. The Provisional IRA and its successors are part of the centuries old and highly documented “resistance” of Irish people to British interference in Ireland. Over those centuries, state authorities ‒ the British, Irish, and Northern Irish governments ‒ have “resisted” the dissent of Irish Republicans. This paper draws on three different research methodologies available to social scientists ‒ counts of events that inform quantitative analyses, intensive interviews/oral histories, and visual sociology ‒ and argues that a multi-method approach will provide a better understanding of the dynamics of “resistance” in Ireland and, more generally, social protest.

The conscientious objection: debate on emergency contraception.

The authors discuss the emergency contraception (EC) topic, assessing scientific and ethical aspects. The almost totality of the studies carried out tends to report on the use of drugs as an emergency measure to prevent pregnancy. However, it is not yet completely excluded that emergency contraceptives can induce medical abortion. The debate on side effects of EC continues to be a highly emotional and controversial issue both for advocates who believe they will lower considerably the number of unintended pregnancies and abortions, and for opponents who believe that using emergency contraception amounts to an abortion. This latter hypothesis highlights the conflicting aspect of the conscientious objection to abortion of physicians and pharmacists. This research work is aimed at investigating the emergency contraception issue, paying particular attention to the medico-legal and regulatory aspects of this subject. Particularly, the authors focus on the conscientious objection in order to assess, if any, legal protection for physicians and pharmacists who claim a right to conscientious objection. Inappropriate use of EC could be resolved through a registry of user. This registry, of course, would not have the intention of persecution, but would only serve to detect possible cases of subjugation, exploitation and harassment.

Vishaka Guidelines: Protecting Women’s Dignity at Workplace

Globalisation and modernisation make women as labour force with the aim of becoming them as financially independent. As women's participation is growing in employment sector, they are witnessing the increasing incidents of sexual harassment at workplace. Sexual harassment now is becoming a burning topic of concern throughout the world. It has been a fixture of the workplace since women first began to work outside their own traditional periphery, i.e., home. Sexual Harassment directed against women at workplace by their superiors, fellow employees, or third parties interferes with the integration of women in the workforce, reinforces the subordination of women to men, and violates women's right to work. Sexual harassment is a clear violation of woman's right to dignity. To safeguard the professional life of women, the Vishaka guidelines (1997) came into existence protecting women's fundamental right to work in safe environment. The guidelines, directed toward employers, included definition of sexual harassment, list of steps for harassment prevention, and details of complaint procedures to be strictly observed in all workplaces for the preservation and enforcement of the women's right to work with dignity. This paper begins with defining concept of sexual harassment and tries to point out the laws and guidelines to prevent the danger of sexual harassment at workplace. The paper highlights the imperatives that are vital for rendering executable and implementable policies, procedures and remedies. Research shows that the guidelines are not being properly implemented due to lack of reporting against exploitation and harassment by the victims. Through proper education and training programmes these issues can be tackled properly. To eradicate sexual harassment in the workplace few measures is being outlined for proper implementation of this guidelines; it will not only improve the working environment but also enhance the physical and mental health of the people. That will have positive impact on job performance, employee satisfaction, and organizational quality outcome. We must hope that the attitude of the male workers towards the female workers will change positively and the world will be free from this menace in near future.
