Urban-rural geographic distribution of Otorhinolaryngologist, Head and Neck surgeons in Aotearoa New Zealand.

We identified geographic distribution of Otorhinolaryngologist, Head and Neck surgeons in Aotearoa New Zealand. To identify the future workforce pipeline, we explored trainee intentions for specialist practice. A survey was distributed to all New Zealand Society of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery (NZSOHNS) members and all current New Zealand Otolaryngology, Head and Neck surgery trainees. Data were gathered on work location and patterns of work, including on-call commitments and full-time equivalent hours worked. Trainees were asked about future career plans. An 88% response rate was achieved encompassing senior medical officers (SMOs) and trainees. A total of 64.8% (68) of respondents reported primarily working in a metropolitan hospital and 26.7% (28) reported working in a regional centre. Rates of internationally trained surgeons were significantly higher in regional centres compared to metropolitan hospitals (64.3% vs 32.4%, p<0.05). Regional respondents had higher after hours on-call burden, a higher full-time equivalent (FTE) worked and higher average hours worked per week. Retirement intentions within the next 10 years were high in both groups (64% regional and 52.9% metropolitan, p<0.05). The regional workforce in ORLHNS work longer hours, are older and are reliant on internationally trained surgeons. Current training of ORLHNS surgeons is unlikely to keep pace with expected retirements.

Reasons for the continued decline in fertility intentions: explanations from overtime work

ABSTRACT China’s fertility rate continues to decline despite government fertility policies. This study aims to explore the micro-level causes of China’s declining fertility rate by examining the impact of changes in Chinese work patterns in recent years, particularly the prevalence of overtime work, on fertility intentions. Using data from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS), this study examines the impact of overtime work on fertility intentions at both the provincial and urban levels. It also examines the specific mechanisms through which different types of overtime (e.g. weekend overtime, night shifts, on-call duty) affect fertility intentions. The results show that overtime work significantly inhibits fertility intentions, a trend that is consistent at both provincial and urban levels. Weekend overtime, night shifts, and on-call duties exhibit particularly pronounced inhibitory effects on fertility intentions. However, not all work arrangements negatively impact fertility intentions. Reasonable work schedules may even foster them. The research implies the need for policy measures to mitigate the negative effects of overtime work on fertility intentions.

Foraging behavior and work patterns of Bombus terrestris (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in response to tomato greenhouse microclimate

Abstract Bumblebees play a significant role as pollinators for many wild plants and cultivated crops, owing to their elongated proboscis, resilience to diverse weather conditions, robustly furred bodies, and their unique capacity for buzz-pollination. To better understand the effect of greenhouse microclimates on bumblebee foraging behavior and working modes, a long-term record of foraging activity for each Bombus terrestris L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae) forager was monitored by the Radio-frequency identification system. The pattern of task performance, including constant housing, foraging, and day-off rotation, was examined under the microclimate. In addition, the correlation between foraging activity of bumblebees and temperature, relative humidity, illumination in the greenhouse, and pollen viability of tomato plants was further analyzed. Our findings revealed that B. terrestris can respond to microclimatic factors and plant resources while also exhibiting a suitable working pattern within the colony. Day-off rotation was observed as a strategy employed by foragers to prolong their survival time. This division of labor and task rotation may serve as strategies for the survival and development of the colony. Our research may contribute to fully understanding how microclimate and plants influence pollinator behavior within greenhouses, thereby optimizing the pollination management of bumblebees on greenhouse crops.

Relations between reflexivity and institutional work: A case study in a public organisation

Reflexivity is often considered a prerequisite for institutional work. However, the relationship between reflexivity and institutional work has rarely been examined rigorously in empirical research, and there is a lack of consensus on when and how reflexivity motivates such efforts. This study aims to address this gap by reviewing existing operationalisations of reflexivity and exploring how different forms of reflexivity impacted employees’ engagement in institutional work in a public organisation undergoing institutional change. The empirical results revealed seven distinct patterns of reflexivity and institutional work, indicating that variations across three dimensions of reflexive evaluation – scope, openness and relationality – contributed to decisions about whether and how to engage in institutional work. The results also demonstrated that reflexivity is profoundly grounded in individuals’ concerns and shaped by their work and professional histories. These findings suggest that researchers and practitioners must develop a deeper understanding of the multidimensional nature of reflexivity in order to foster meaningful employee contributions to institutional processes.

Dimensi Budaya Hofstede dalam Komunikasi Antarkaryawan Organisasi Multinasional

The cultural differences within an organization can create various barriers in the communication process among employees. Therefore, with the increasing number of international migrants in Indonesia, employees are required to enhance their understanding of cross-cultural communication. One example is the marketing department employees of a multinational organization under the initial DO, which is led by two managers from different countries, Indonesia and Germany. Hence, this research aims to examine the communication practices of DO’s marketing department, which are influenced by two vastly contrasting cultures using Hofstede's cultural dimensions. To conduct the research, a descriptive case study method was used, employing in-depth interviews with five members of DO's marketing department. The research found that the dynamics of communication in the marketing department are greatly influenced by cultural dimensions, particularly in aspects such as decision-making and discussion processes, communication styles, task distribution patterns, freedom for innovation, employee work patterns, views on deadlines, and views on employee rights such as leave and dress code. The research also found that members of the department from Indonesia will only adopt foreign cultures brought by their expatriate leaders if they are deemed suitable or compatible with their own culture. Conversely, if they are not compatible, the German leader tends to accommodate and adjust to their other members. Understanding cultural dynamics that happens in communication among employees allows the company to detect types of communications that are happening and detect problems that might happen, for a more effective process. Keywords: employee communication, Germany, Hofstede’s cultural dimensions, Indonesia, multinational organization

What does flexible work for men really mean?: a qualitative content analysis of key stakeholder accounts

ABSTRACT This article explores definitions and practice of flexible work and is part of a larger project about men’s flexible work. Flexible work is prevalent in workplace research, but evidence is lacking regarding how flexible work for men is interpreted and applied in practice. Gendered patterns of work and care more often position men in paid employment and less often in care and domestic responsibilities. Men’s use of flexible work could assist in balancing paid employment with unpaid domestic and care tasks. Qualitative content analysis (QCA) was undertaken to summarise participants’ descriptions of two key aspects of flexible work – forms of flexible work, and the reasons for flexible work. QCA was applied to 30 interviews about men’s flexible work with organisational leaders (n = 12, 3 women and 9 men) and men who use flexible work arrangements (n = 18). Participants typically discussed flexible work in their white-collar employment situations, most often in the form of part-time work and for the reason of caring for children. Participants’ descriptions of flexible work differed from how flexible work is commonly defined in policy and legislation, demonstrating that men use flexible work in ways not described in policy or legislation.

Enhanced Depth Control and Stability in Submersible Pylon Inspection Robots Using IMU-Based Extended Kalman Filter and PID Control

The research developed a Submersible Pylon Inspection Robot (SPIR) to clean and inspect underwater structures automatically, facing challenges in stability and depth of operation. Integrating the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) with the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), as well as implementing customized PID controls, aims to improve the accuracy and stability of SPIR in dynamic underwater environments. The results show that the SPIR control system can follow the reference depth at shallow depths well, but has difficulty maintaining stability at deeper depths. The position error graph on the Z-axis shows the initial fluctuation that decreases over time, reflecting the increased calibration. The use of drive motors also shows different working patterns, with some motors active in depth settings and others for stabilization. This study shows that the integration approach of IMU, EKF, and PID control can improve SPIR performance, although further adjustments are required to meet the extreme challenges in underwater environments.

Making integration happen: managers’ views on multidisciplinary work in Finnish health system

Abstract Background In Finland, a large-scale health and social service reform was implemented in 2023. The structural reform centralised the organising of health and social services from some 200 organisations to 22 wellbeing services counties (WBSC). One goal of the reform was to promote service integration between and within health and social services. The reform offers a unique opportunity for investigating how such change unfolds. This study addresses the integration aspirations of those who are responsible for implementing the change, that is middle managers in WBSCs. We focus on micro and meso levels and explore how the aim of multidisciplinary collaboration is interpreted as part of advancing service integration by middle managers in one newly formed WBSC. Methods The data for this qualitative study were derived from 11 semi-structured interviews with senior and middle managers responsible for various fields of health and social care services in a single WBSC between October 2022 and June 2023. Inductive thematic analysis was applied. Results The managers framed multidisciplinary collaboration very positively and easier to achieve in the new organisation with health and social services united under the same management. The managers acknowledged the need to form collaborative structures (e.g. meetings) and processes at all levels of organisation. Leadership plays a crucial role in creating space for the professionals to form an experience of a shared every-day work. However, previous structures and patterns of work still seemed to limit these endeavours. Tensions between, for example, professional groups or units were left essentially untouched. Multidisciplinary collaboration will serve especially persons with complex and multiple needs and was framed key to cost savings. Conclusions While the structural reform opens a window of opportunity to new collaborative patterns, competing logics and interests as well as power imbalances may hamper the development if not addressed. Key messages • Middle managers had high hopes for multidisciplinary work after the health system reform, including effects on the difficult issues concerning costs and health workforce availability. • While the managers were prepared to promote multidisciplinary work, the prior organisational boundaries and logics hindered integration. Different tensions between stakeholders need more attention.

Factors Related to mHealth App Use Among Japanese Workers: Cross-Sectional Survey.

Health care providers can make health guidance more effective by using mobile health technologies such as health apps. Although health care providers need to know who uses health apps, existing studies have yielded inconsistent results. The aim of the study was (1) to clarify the prevalence and patterns of health app use to improve health behaviors for preventing lifestyle-related diseases among Japanese workers and (2) to identify the associations among demographic characteristics, health behavior, and internet use and health app use by gender. Data were collected from a cross-sectional internet survey in 2023. In total, 2200 participants were included, with an even distribution of men and women in each age group aged 20 to 60 years. The participants were workers with smartphones and reported their gender, age, residence area, marital status, education, employment status, occupation, work pattern, diseases under treatment, health checkups, health guidance, health behaviors, internet use duration, and number of devices used. We asked about current and previous health app use for 1 month. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted by gender. Of the participants, 472 (21.5%) and 189 (8.6%) were current and previous health app users, respectively. Most current and previous health app users used features that record and track their physical activity and other health behaviors. Health app users-both men and women-were more likely to have health checkups (odds ratio [OR] 1.53, 95% CI 1.12-2.11 and OR 1.51, 95% CI 1.10-2.07, respectively), receive health guidance (OR 2.01, 95% CI 1.47-2.74 and OR 1.86, 95% CI 1.32-2.62, respectively), engage in regular physical activity (OR 2.57, 95% CI 1.91-3.47 and OR 1.94, 95% CI 1.41-2.67, respectively), use the internet for 120-179 minutes per day (OR 1.76, 95% CI 1.13-2.75 and OR 1.70, 95% CI 1.12-2.57, respectively), and were less likely to be older (50-59 years: OR 0.54, 95% CI 0.33-0.88 and OR 0.40, 95% CI 0.25-0.6, respectively, and 60-69 years: OR 0.37, 95% CI 0.22-0.62 and OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.28-0.77, respectively). According to gender, male health app users were more likely to be married (OR 1.69, 95% CI 1.23-2.33) and less likely to work in the security, agriculture, forestry, fishing, manufacturing, or transportation industries (OR 0.62, 95% CI 0.41-0.95). Female health app users were more likely to have a university education or higher (OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.061-2.26), maintain an appropriate body weight (OR 1.52, 95% CI 1.10-2.11), and use 3 or more devices (OR 2.13, 95% CI 1.41-3.23). Physical activity and health guidance are strong predictors of app use. Health care providers should assess the target populations' preferences for app use based on their characteristics, support their app use, and enhance the effectiveness of health guidance.

What sustains feminized part-time work at the gender equality frontier? Evidence from a vignette experiment

Feminized part-time work has been deemed a family policy conundrum yet to be solved by any welfare regime. To identify ways forward, this article examines structural drivers of part-time work decisions through a vignette experiment fielded in the gender-egalitarian context of Norway ( N = 3500). Six theory-grounded factors are tested in this multidimensional, causal framework: partner income level, physical and cognitive household labour burdens, the presence of a part-time culture at the workplace, and consequences of part-time work for career advancement and future pensions. Results show that overall, factors that regulate individuals’ material self-interest (partner income, career and pension consequences) have the largest impact on working-time decisions. Additionally, a priming treatment is given with a split sample concerning the factor of cognitive household labour – the organizational dimension of household work. Results from sub-group analyses show that non-primed respondents prefer significantly higher working hours when their cognitive labour burden is lower. Respondents who received experimental priming, however, portray the opposite behaviour (lower working-hour preference when cognitive labour burden is low). The pattern is driven by women, whereas men are left largely unaffected by both the priming and vignette treatment of cognitive labour. Thus, robust findings imply that gender inequality in material circumstances sustains feminized part-time work patterns. Suggestive evidence further indicates that gender inequality in cognitive labour loads may also contribute to sustaining feminized part-time work.

Divergent rhythms of motherhood. Patterns of paid and unpaid work and domestic outsourcing among mothers in the United Kingdom and Western Germany

Objective: This article investigates class differences in mothers’ daily organization of paid and unpaid work, and how they are associated with domestic outsourcing in the United Kingdom and Western Germany. Background: Operating hours of schools and daycare facilities often conflict with long working hours in high-skilled jobs and nonstandard working hours in low-skilled jobs. However, little is known on whether advantaged mothers rely on domestic outsourcing to resolve such scheduling conflicts, and how disadvantaged mothers reconcile their daily care responsibilities with paid work, depending on the welfare state context. Method: The study uses sequence and cluster analyses on time-use data to identify typical patterns of paid and unpaid work (N=1,947). Regression models predict how these patterns differ by the mothers’ education and household income, and how they are associated with outsourcing housework and childcare. Results: In both contexts, disadvantaged mothers were more likely to have unpaid workdays rather than nonstandard workdays. However, British advantaged mothers were considerably more likely to outsource childcare to pursue standard workdays. By contrast, the pattern of partial workdays in the morning, combined with more unpaid work allocation, prevailed among Western German mothers. Conclusion: In the United Kingdom, more market-oriented as opposed to conservative family policies, stronger labor market deregulation, and more consistent policy incentives for domestic outsourcing seem more effective than in Western Germany in promoting advantaged mothers’ careers. However, this comes at the expense of greater class differences in how mothers organize their time.

Income of women whose jobs were to sort eucalyptus leaves after the COVID-19 pandemic

Buru Regency is the primary hub for producing eucalyptus oil, a highly valued commodity in the region. The oil extracted from the eucalyptus epidemic plant possesses antiseptic, antibacterial, and antifungal characteristics. Amidst the Covid-19 pandemic, numerous industries require it as a fundamental component of pharmaceuticals. An essential factor in the eucalyptus oil production process is the presence of eucalyptus leaves. Therefore, leaf-sorting workers, including women, are required to ensure this availability. However, in reality, the daily lives of eucalyptus leaf massagers are characterized by challenging economic conditions and a socio-economic environment that lags behind workers in other sectors. This study aims to examine and investigate the roles and work patterns of employed women and the strategies they employ to ensure the consistent flow of household income. The research employed a qualitative methodology with a phenomenological approach. A total of 24 informants were purposefully selected based on their involvement in achieving the research objectives. The results indicate that the COVID-19 pandemic has altered the circumstances of women who collect leaves and rely heavily on eucalyptus trees as a natural resource. Physical adaptation strategies are the preferred methods used to fulfill household requirements. Implementing physical adaptations does not deter women leaf-sorters from continuing their work. Their commitment to meeting their basic needs significantly motivates them to persist in their role as leaf sorters. The income of women engaged in sorting eucalyptus leaves in their households during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Палеотектонический анализ отложений нижнеапшеронской литофациальной пачки Астраханского Прикаспия

The paleotectonic analysis of the Apsheron deposits of the Astrakhan Caspian Sia is considered. The main at-tention is paid to the analysis of the deposits of the lower Apsheron lithofacies unit, which includes the study of the thickness of the deposits, the construction of maps of thicknesses and trend values, as well as the analysis of the wave pattern of seismic works carried out in the territory of the Astrakhan Caspian Sia. The results of the study showed that during the Lower Apsheron time, significant tectonic processes took place in the region, including the growth of salt domes and the formation of alluvial fans. These processes had a significant impact on sedimentation and the distribution of sediment thicknesses. The conclusions about the influence of salt dome tectonics on sedimentation, as well as the role of paleorelief in the formation of local thickness anomalies are presented as well. The results obtained are important for understanding the geological history of the region and assessing its oil and gas potential. The data presented in the article are based on the analysis of geological data, including seismic data, and the use of paleotectonic analysis methods. The article describes in detail the research methods and provides examples of specific results obtained during the work.

INTEGRATING ALLIED HEALTH PROFESSIONALS DURING THE ONCOLOGICAL TREATMENT PHASE FOR GLIOBLASTOMA PATIENTS: A CASE STUDY AT A UK CANCER CENTRE

Abstract AIMS Primary brain tumour patients should be offered neurological rehabilitation assessment at diagnosis and every stage of follow With only 5% of glioblastoma patients surviving more than 5 years, specialist management that spans across all phases of the Dietz rehabilitation model is required to optimise function, treatment tolerance and Quality-of-life. At Guy’s cancer centre an Allied health multi-disciplinary team (Physiotherapy, Occupational therapy and Speech and language therapy) work alongside the oncologist-led clinic to support this patient group. METHOD Case history A 54-year-old, male, was diagnosed with right parietal Glioblastoma, WHO grade 4, IDH wildtype, MGMT 5.47% methylated (August 2023) on biopsy only. He underwent chemo/radiotherapy - 60gy/90 fractions with Temozolmide (TMZ) on 3/11/2023 Currently C4 of adjuvant TMZ. Dexamethazone 2mg was discontinued on 29/11/2023, he continues with Keppra 500mg twice daily. RESULTS Dietz Intervention approach in phases: PREVENTATIVE Fatigue management was introduced prior to radiotherapy including a physical activity review, advice on pacing, sleep hygiene and relaxation techniques. Given the patient’s history of shift work and altered sleep patterns, managing risks of treatment-related fatigue was of particular importance. Restorative &amp; Supportive: A targeted and periodised exercise programme was initiated, comprising 1:1 gym based physiotherapy sessions. The aims included enhancing exercise confidence, improve balance, endurance, maintain strength, pain management and weight maintenance during chemo/radiotherapy and adjuvant TMZ. Education was deployed on adjusting activity levels based on chemotherapy cycle and day to day side effects, alongside ongoing fatigue management advice around pacing and sleep hygiene. CONCLUSION Learning and Recommendations Implementing tailored rehabilitation interventions early in the patient’s treatment pathway, enables proactive management to mitigate the impact of treatment-related side effects on their QOL. Based on our experience, early engagement with a dedicated therapy team is recommended to foster strong rapport with both the patient and their caregivers. This facilitates timely rehabilitation planning for optimal outcomes.

Feasibility of ecological momentary assessment in measuring physical activity and sedentary behaviour in shift and non-shift workers

BackgroundPrevious studies assessing shift workers’ behaviours have mainly used self-report recall questionnaires, however these measures don’t always account for variations in work schedules. Alternative methods that allow for real-time assessments tailored to capture variations in work patterns might provide more accurate measures of physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB). Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA), which provides real-time evaluations of PA and SB in shift workers. A secondary aim was to compare shift workers and non-shift worker responses.MethodsParticipants (n = 120; 58% female, mean Mage=36.0), included 69 shift workers and 51 non-shift workers. After downloading the EMA app, shift workers received either interval-contingent tailored (SW-T) or standardized EMA prompts (SW-S) over 7–10 days, while non-shift workers received standardized prompts (NSW-S) for seven days. Prompts were scheduled five times daily, every three hours. The EMA survey asked participants to report their current activity, including type, duration, and location of physical activity and sitting. Feasibility was assessed by analysing recruitment, retention, and compliance rates (EMA surveys completed) across SW-T, SW-S, and NSW-S groups.ResultsApproximately 78% of invited workers enrolled, and all enrolled workers completed at least one prompt on 4 out 7 days in the NSW-S and 7 out of 10 days in the SW group. Workers who chose not to participate reported unwillingness to travel for meetings (n = 14), while others did not respond (n = 20). Participants completed an average of 24 surveys per day, each one taking less than 30 s to complete. Overall, 64% of EMA surveys were started and completed. SW-S completed the least prompts (57%), while SW-T and NSW-S completed 64% and 68%, respectively (p = 0.90). On average, workers missed 36% EMA surveys which was similar for SW and NSW (p = 0.05).ConclusionOur study represents one of the few studies that has used EMA in the shift work population with adaptation to shift schedules. The findings showed a modest compliance to EMA. Strategies are needed to enhance compliance rates. However, EMA shows promise for capturing real-time behaviours in shift workers’ natural work environments.

The evolution of new and emerging occupational health and safety risks: A qualitative review.

Work itself and occupational health and safety (OHS) have evolved through industrial revolutions and will also continue to evolve in the future. The aim of this qualitative literature review was to examine how the scientific discussion on new and emerging risks (NERs) related to OHS has evolved in recent decades in developed and newly industrialized countries. A search of the Scopus database yielded 34 articles published before 2000 and from 2020 onwards. A review of the articles identified NERs themes related to changes in work patterns, changing workforce and growth in some sectors, climate change, new materials or increased use of materials, new technology and technological development, and viruses. In both article collection periods, possible adverse OHS effects discussed included musculoskeletal disorders, exposure to toxic agents, chemical compounds and hazardous materials, increased stress, increased likelihood of errors and accidents, psychosocial problems, mental fatigue, and increases in work-related illnesses and accidents. The articles published during both periods discussed similar themes. The main differences were regarding specific time-related cases, such as climate change and COVID-19. Based on the findings of this review, points to consider in OHS management and future studies are discussed.

Precision Offloading in Edge Computing: Leveraging Predictive Model

The intended effect of the investigation is to provide sophisticated prediction and decision-making models in order to optimize service delivery and improve the Quality of Experience (QoE) for users. This research tackles the problems that are associated with job offloading in edge computing settings. In order to reduce service latency and improve overall performance, the Bi-Directional Long Short-Term Memory (B-LSTM) model is used. This model provides the ability to forecast task creation and server load. In order to accommodate the particular qualities of different devices, the Selective Objective Offloading Decision (SOOD) approach is presented. This method makes use of the TOPSIS methodology to turn server assessment into a decision-making issue that involves several criteria. A considerable increase of 98.4% in user quality of experience is achieved by the SOOD paradigm. In addition, the Rapid Offloading Decision (ROD) model is presented in order to manage unexpected work patterns. This is accomplished by using the log information of surrounding devices, which results in instantaneous and dependable offloading choices. Through the usage of prediction algorithms and selective decision-making, this research gives a complete strategy to improving the efficiency of edge computing. The goal of this technique is to maximize the utilization of servers and the user experience.

Flexible Working Arrangement (FWA) Model: Reducing Congestion Levels and Work Stress and Increasing Work Productivity

Research aims: This research aims to analyze the impact of the flexible working arrangement (FWA) system in reducing traffic jams, reducing work stress, and increasing work productivity.Design/Methodology/Approach: This research uses a sample collection technique with purposive sampling by distributing questionnaires to 100 government and company employees and interviewing 5 informants from government employees. Data analysis uses SEM (structural equation model) with the AMOS analysis tool.Research findings: Flexible working arrangements (FWA) have an important role in reducing traffic jams, which can increase a person's work stress. Reducing traffic congestion has a positive impact on workers and decreases work stress. Despite flexible working arrangements (FWA), work congestion and stress do not influence work productivity.Theoretical Contribution/Originality: This research contributes to the science of human resource management and urban management related to HR work activities.Practitioners/Policy Implications: The results of this research become a source and basis for guidance in structuring work patterns to be more efficient and effective, i.e., working flexibly can reduce the level of traffic congestion.Research Limitations/Implications: The limitation to this research includes the very limited number of respondents and informants who cannot be met directly so the question-and-answer process is less in-depth. Moreover, the indicators for each variable are still lacking, while the references are still weak.
