Opis:: La presente investigación tiene como objetivo principal analizar cómo la condición de ser madre soltera adolescente pudiera determinar el tipo de incorporación de éstas al mercado de trabajo y las condiciones laborales respectivas. La forma para abordar el objetivo que nos planteamos fue a través de un estudio de caso de madres solteras adolescentes que se dedicaron a la venta de alimentos en el Mercado de Tepito. Los resultados obtenidos contradicen las tesis que asocian al sector informal con precariedad laboral y nos llevan a reflexionar que el concepto de precariedad rebasa la escisión entre el sector formal e informal.
The present research has as main purpose is to analyze how the condition of being unwed teenage mother could identify the type of incorporation of these to the labor market and the respective labor conditions. The way to address the objective we set ourselves was through a case study of single teenage mothers that were devoted to the sale of food in the Mercado de Tepito. The results contradict the thesis which associate with the informal sector with precarious employment and lead us to think that the concept of precariousness exceeds the rift between the formal and informal sector.

Opis:: The aim of this article is to evaluate the competing theories that variously explain the greater prevalence of undeclared employment in some countries either as: a legacy of under-development; a result of the voluntary exit from declared employment due to the high taxes, state corruption and burdensome regulations and controls, or a product of a lack of state intervention in work and welfare which leads to the exclusion of workers from the declared economy and state welfare provision. Analyzing the cross-national variations in the prevalence of, and reasons for, undeclared employment across the European Union using evidence from a 2007 Eurobarometer survey, the finding is that undeclared employment is less prevalent and more of the voluntary variety in wealthier, less corrupt and more equal societies possessing higher levels of social protection and redistribution via social transfers. The theoretical and policy implications are then discussed.

Opis:: Reporting a 2013 Eurobarometer survey of participation in the informal economy across eight Baltic countries, this paper tentatively explains the informal economy from an institutional perspective as associated with the asymmetry between the codified laws and regulations of the formal institutions (state morality) and the norms, values and beliefs of citizens (civic morality). Identifying that this non-alignment of civic morality with the formal rules is more acute when there is greater poverty and inequality, less effective redistribution and lower levels of state intervention in the labour market and welfare, the implications for theorising and tackling the informal economy are then discussed.

Opis:: The present paper attempts to see the women and child worker in the old city of Hyderabad in the Bangle industry. Women make up a sizable portion of India’s labour force, yet they are paid less and have less secure jobs than men. As a result, many of these mothers choose to earn an income for their families by working from home. Women who work in the informal sector work with minimum pay and hence the girl child is an easy prey to assist the mother in supplementing the income and helping in the household chores so that more time is left to pursue the trade for an income. Our sample includes 100 women respondents and 150 girls. Being in the unregulated, home-based informal sector has made it challenging to organize the employees, leaving the bulk of bangle-makers in precarious positions both at work and at home. The increasing number of children, especially girls, who are taking part in the production of bangles is also a cause for alarm. It would appear that the piece rate method of payment and the fact that the work may be done from home encourage the participation of family members, including children, in the labour force.

Opis:: Research background Retirement planning is viewed as one of the cornerstones of long-term household financial security. The responsibility of retirement planning has now been shifted to the individual and is no longer the responsibility of the employer. Purpose This paper examines the link between financial literacy and retirement planning among informal sector traders in the Randburg area of Johannesburg, South Africa. Research methodology A questionnaire approach was used to collect data from 269 randomly selected informal sector respondents. The data was analysed using ordinal regression. Robustness tests were executed using the Wald test. Results Findings reveal that financial literacy is linked to retirement planning, and especially with reference to informal sector workers. Additionally, education, income and the informal business sector were observed to have a positive and significant influence on retirement planning. Novelty The paper contributes to both theoretical and practical discourses on retirement planning for informal sector entrepreneurs which has not received much attention. These results are important for policy makers in retirement planning as well as curriculum development.

Opis:: Głównym zadaniem niniejszego opracowania jest identyfikacja szarej strefy w przedsiębiorstwach w Polsce. W tym celu w okresie od listopada do grudnia 2015 roku na terenie trzech województw: śląskiego, małopolskiego i mazowieckiego, przeprowadzono dwuetapowe badania na grupie jednostek z branż usługowej i produkcyjnej. W pierwszym etapie zbadano dokumentację przedsiębiorstw pod względem ilości zatrudnionych w osobach i w etatach, a także zebrano informacje o średnim wynagrodzeniu netto w badanych jednostkach. Drugim etapem badania był wywiad niestandaryzowany. Badanym właścicielom firm zadano pytania o prawdziwą wielkość zatrudnienia, wynagradzania oraz o dokonywanie sprzedaży poza ewidencją księgową. Wywiad miał cechy wywiadu niestrukturyzowanego. Wyniki badania wskazały znaczną skalę szarej strefy w analizowanych przedsiębiorstwach. Nieprawidłowości dotyczyły najczęściej wypłaty wynagrodzeń nieujętych na listach płac, rzadziej, choć i tak często, ujawniono nieprawidłowości w wysokości etatów pracowniczych i nieewidencjonowanego zatrudnienia. Ponadto, jak wykazały badania, źródłem finansowania wypłat niebędących kosztem uzyskania przychodu są najczęściej środki pochodzące z opodatkowanego dochodu przedsiębiorstw.
The aim of the article is to identify the informal sector in Polish enterprises. To offer a conceptualized view of the gray economy, two stage-study were conducted on a group of units of service industries and manufacturing in three Polish provinces (Śląskie, Małopolskie, Mazowieckie) in the period from November to December 2015. In the first stage, documentation of enterprises was examined in terms of the number of employees and in full-time jobs and its average net salary. The second stage of the study was unstructured standardized interview with business owners. The responders were asked about three elements: the true size of employment, real remuneration, and outside the accounting records sales. The results of the study showed significant scale of the shadow economy in the analyzed units. The anomalies mainly concerned the payment of salaries not included on the payroll. Moreover, the results have shown many abnormalities in the amount of jobs of workers and undeclared work. Finally, source of funding salaries which is not deductible are in a great majority funds from the taxable income of the enterprises.

Opis:: Objectives This study aims to evaluated the effectiveness of participatory action-oriented training (PAOT) intervention for hypertension management among intercity van drivers. Material and Methods This quasi-experimental study applied concept and process of participatory action-oriented training and self-management to guide the development of the intervention addressing improvement in hypertension management behaviors. A total of 104 intercity van drivers with uncontrolled hypertension in Thailand were recruited to participate in this program. The intervention group (N = 52) received PAOT program, while the control group (N = 52) received conventional program. Data on hypertension management behaviors, and blood pressure were measured at baseline, 1 month and 3 months after intervention. Results At 3 months after intervention, hypertension management behavior, and systolic blood pressure were significantly different between 2 groups (p < 0.05). Conclusions This PAOT was found to be feasible and could potentially improve hypertension management, and blood pressure level of intercity van drivers. The program should be applied in further studies with other workplaces in both formal and informal sectors with different characteristics and other health issues.

Opis:: At present risks and uncertainties occur in protecting health for the community. This requires a national health insurance program that can guarantee health care costs. One of the program participants is a resident who works in the informal sector. This group is vulnerable as well as the potential for the implementation of health insurance programs. However, the level of participation of informal sector workers is still low, so an analysis of the constraints affecting it is needed. This study aims to identify categories of informal sector workers and analyze various obstacles faced by informal sector workers to become health insurance participants in the city of Bogor. The method used is the concept of big data with K-means clustering data mining techniques to group informal sector workers along with the constraints that exist in each of these groups. The results showed that there were 3 clusters with very low Social Security Administrator (BPJS) health ownership, namely cluster 1, cluster 3, and cluster 5. Each cluster had different constraints. Cluster 1 has constraints on the number of dependents it has, Cluster 3 has constraints on the gender side that are dominated by women, while Cluster 5 has constraints on the low-income side. Each cluster has a different obstacle resolution recommendation, namely for cluster 1 by registering workers in JKN contribution recipient (PBI) participants, cluster 2 by giving outreach to women who have only focused on men, and for clusters 5 by involving the community as a forum for the empowerment of informal sector workers.

Opis:: Contrary to the predictions that the informal sector in developing countries, particularly Africa is marginal and exhibits tendency to disappear as most of these nations’ experienced satisfactory level of economic development. The informal sector has not only increased in intensity, it has grown to dominate economic activities in Africa countries. The purpose of this paper is to examine the epistemic reflections of the traditional view of the informal sector in developing countries vis-à-vis evidence of the failure of its transient predictions in Africa. To achieve the objectives of this paper, systematic review of literature on these issues were presented and discussed. The paper revealed that the growth of the informal sector has occurred in connection with declining competitiveness and productivity performance in Africa resulting to rising economic depression, growing unemployment and poverty level among others. Additionally, the informal sector has been generally neglected and has suffered severe discrimination in a number of important dimensions; hence, there is growing neglect and political will to propel the transition of the informal sector into formal economy. Against the aforementioned backdrops, the paper concluded that though, the informal sector is neglected, it has however, come to be a key components of the Africa economy. Similarly, against the apparent economic challenges presently ravaging most Africa countries, the informal sector will continue to gain popularity. On this note, the paper recommended the need to promote equitable linkages between the informal and the formal sector through appropriate inclusive policy framework with a view of increasing the wider development implications of the informal sector initiatives, as well as the political and institutional barriers that impede its activities and growth.
