Education and the Welfare Gains from Employment Protection [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper studies the impact of an European-like labor market regulation on the return to schooling, equilibrium unemployment and welfare. We show that firing costs and temporary employment have opposite effects on educational choices.

Strain‐Activated Mechanical Metamaterial With Programmable Dual‐Phase Stiffness and Enhanced Energy Absorption

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A strain‐activated mechanical metamaterial is developed to achieve programmable dual‐phase stiffness through an intrinsic geometric locking mechanism. Finite element modeling and parametric analysis identify the key design parameters governing activation strain, stiffness transition, and energy absorption.

Temporary Protection and Continuation of Remote Work for the Country of Origin

open access: yesIzzivi Prihodnosti
Research Question (RQ): Refugee status is denied to persons who cooperate with authorities of a country of origin. However, it is unclear whether this rule also applies to displaced persons, or whether Directive 2011/95/EU regulating subsidiary ...

Is Temporary Employment a Stepping Stone for Unemployed School Leavers? [PDF]

open access: yes
Many school-leavers enter the labour market via temporary employment. In this paper we investigate the impact of a temporary employment spell at the start of the career on the transition rate into permanent employment.

Defect‐Engineered ZnO Nanowire Arrays for Flexible Room‐Temperature Hydrogen Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Fabrication process of patterned ZnO nucleation sites on a flexible polyimide (PI) substrate. Top/tilted‐view SEM images of ordered ZnO nanoflower arrays confined within patterned circular regions. AFM topography map with height data revealing a disk‐array structure, where the patterned regions (marked by a red dot circle) are elevated by ∼2 µm ...

Employment Protection Reform in Search Economies [PDF]

open access: yes
The design of employment protection legislation (EPL) is of particular importance in the European debate on the contours of labor market reform. In this article we appeal to an equilibrium unemployment model to investigate the virtues of EPL reform which

Host Country Policies and the Prospects for the Return of Ukrainian Refugees

open access: yesСоціологічні студії
The relevance of the research is driven by the large-scale forced migration of Ukrainian citizens caused by the full-scale war and the gradual shift of host countries from emergency temporary protection regimes toward managed migration models.

Analysis of the determinants of Temporary employment in 19 European countries [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper studies the determinants of temporary employment in 19 European countries using micro-level data drawn from the European Social Survey. The analysis shows that temporary employment is a stepping-stone to a permanent job. In addition, temporary

Programmable Variable‐Stiffness Multilayer Elastomer Composites With High‐Aspect‐Ratio Low‐Melting‐Point Alloy Inclusions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
High‐aspect‐ratio low‐melting‐point alloy inclusions are embedded within multilayer silicone laminates to create thermally programmable stiffness. Sequential activation of alloy‐rich layers produces four distinct mechanical states and reconfigures tendon‐driven actuator trajectories under the same load.

The use of permanent and temporary jobs across Spanish regions: Do unit labour cost differentials offer an explanation? [PDF]

open access: yes
We study the use of permanent and temporary contracts across Spanish regions during the period 1995-2001. First we show that there are significant differences among the regional rates of permanent employment and that these differences tend to persist ...
