Type 2 diabetes risk factors among the unemployed

100%
Unemployment is a significant social problem which has numerous negative health consequences. Findings of numerous researches provide  data on the range of the consequences of unemployment with risk of health deterioration being one of the most important. Unemployment remains an area of interest for the following fields of science: psychology, economics, sociology. More and more researches prove that there is a link between the increase of disease occurrence and death rate and long-term unemployment. Both in Poland and all over the world a steady increase in the incidence of type 2 diabetes is being observed. World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that, taking into consideration present dynamics of changes, in 2025 there will be 300 million people diagnosed with diabetes. That is why a diabetes epidemic is such a topical issue, and according to some epidemic data this epidemic is starting to reach Poland as well. Data provided by IDF (International Diabetes Federation) show that in Poland the percentage of diabetes patients is 9,1% of the whole population and it is a little higher than the European average (8,6%). It is predicted that by 2015 the percentage will rise to 11%. Identification of adverse health behaviors and introducing actions promoting health in a given population group can prove to be beneficial for the present condition of members of a given group as well as decrease the risk connected with the occurrence of diseases associated with the progress of civilization in the future. The aim of the article is to indicate type 2 diabetes risk factors among the unemployed in Poland.
The study was devoted to the presentation of different ways to activate the unemployed in terms of increasing the competitiveness of the county. Considerations are discussed using the example of Ciechanów county. The aim of the study was to propose ways to support people out of work in the process of searching for it, which directly affects the competitiveness of the region, in this case, the Ciechanów county. In this work, it is assumed that an increase in the competitiveness of the county is affected by the district job centre in terms of activation of unemployed people. Issues associated with the activation of the unemployed have been presented on the basis of examination in district job centre in Ciechanów in 2013. The study has presented its activities carried out in order to help the unemployed to find work. On the basis of the studies one can conclude that the employment rate of people, who have benefited from various types of assistance offered by district job centre, was at a low level. It did not, however, show the ineffectiveness of these assistance variants. Low demand for workers (including those trained under district job centre) was due to a general decrease in the demand for labor from the entrepreneurs.

The study presents the results of research on the professional activity of rural inhabitants of provinces in Poland. Moreover, the spatial diversity of professional activity in the years 2003 and 2009 is compared. Research is based on the materials, “Rural areas in Poland” sourced from the Central Statistical Office (GUS). For the sake of this study, provinces are classified according to employment indicator and unemployment rate. The Pearson correlation coefficient for the unemployment rate and the rate of entrepreneurship is determined. The unemployment rate is compared with the rate of entrepreneurship in the years 2003 and 2009. The lowest rate of employment in rural areas is found to be in the provinces along the eastern border, in particular in the West Pomerania Province. These provinces are characterized by a high unemployment rate. Simultaneously, the rural areas of these regions share a high rate of entrepreneurship.

Unemployment and its problems in the Grodno Region

86%
Article is devoted to studying of unemployment as a negative social and economic phenomenon in the life of a society. As the growth of the given parameter conducts to the shortage of produce. The structure of the unemployed according to the sex both in Grodno region, and across Belarus specifies prevalence of ‘female’ unemployment. A problem there is employment of youth. The disturbing tendency is traced at studying the structure of the age of the unemployed: the greatest share of the unemployed falls at the most productive age of 20-29 and 30-49 years. In the small regional centers the rate of unemployment is higher than in the large cities. This is connected with an absence of workplaces, backwardness of the real sector of economy, a weak level of development of social services. Therefore the state policy of employment aspires to provide equal opportunities to all physically fit citizens of Belarus, gives social guarantees and indemnifications to the unemployed, etc.

Psychotherapy of the unemployed: determinants of efficacy

86%
The unemployment in Poland has recently achieved, and stabilized at, quite a high level. Therefore, the development of psychotherapeutic tools aimed at supporting the unemployed has become an issue of great importance. The number of persons seeking professional help at outpatient mental clinics due to psychosomatic disorders linked to job loss has been sharply on the rise. These patients present with sleep disorders, dysphoric mood changes, sustained somatic pains, lack of goal and satisfaction in life, and the like. This article shows, as exemplified on individual cases and group therapies, the patient’s work-up and also the types of activities from the border of medicine and psychology to support the mental state of the unemployed.
National accounts and utilization of GDP by macro-economic decision-making was in the twentieth century one of the greatest inventions. The evolution of the methodology of GDP surrenders economic concepts to political goals. GDP ceases to reliably measure the economy, but rather presents the created image, with better relation of budget deficit and public debt. It provides higher contributions to international organizations which are calculated as a percentage of GDP. Such creative national accounts cannot be the basis for effective economic policy of the country. How to explain the growth of GDP, with a simultaneous increase in unemployment, increase in rates of poverty, with higher expenditures on social assistance, and higher rate of public and private indebtedness. But such a picture of Polish economy is seen in statistical data for the last six years. This article attempts to explain the lack of any correlation of GDP growth and a lack of decline in the unemployment rate in Poland.

Unemployment in rural areas in Poland

86%
The deagrarization process which manifests itself through the systematic decreasing of the role of agriculture in the productive involvement of human labour, as well as providing income for maintaining the rural population is progressing in the Polish countryside. Statistical data, regardless of the source, shows an unfavourable situation on the labour market for the population residing in rural areas. In the recent years, the number of persons registered as being unemployed increased. At the end of 2011, registered unemployment in rural areas achieved a level of 874.5 thousand persons, and the residents of the rural areas constituted 44.11% of all the registered unemployed. Unemployment in rural areas is a derivative of unemployment in the entire economy, the low mobility of rural residents, as well as the limited possibilities of the labour market in rural areas. It differs from unemployment in urban areas. It is of a more permanent nature, and the labour market is not as fl exible. Among the unemployed in rural areas, the non-agricultural population (not having farms) is in a much worse situation as compared to the population connected with agriculture.

The aim of the paper is to investigate the scale of changes in the labour market in Poland, assuming that the number of persons employed in agriculture would amount to 5% of the total number of people employed in the national economy, i.e. when we eliminate the potential surplus of employment in individual farms. The study was conducted on the basis of the BAEL data from the years 1995–2015. It was shown that there was a steady improvement in the labour market and a reduction of the level of potential hidden unemployment in agriculture, mainly due to economic growth and the absorption of labour force by the non-agricultural sectors. Research results let us assume that achieving the level of employment in the agriculture similar to that specified in the study is possible within a period of several years.
In the literature structural mismatches on the labor market are often characterized as insensitive to economic growth fluctuations. However, in this article the following hypothesis has been stated: that business cycle fluctuations affect the level of structural mismatches on the labor market in terms of qualifications; moreover, the higher the rate of economic growth, the lower is the level of structural mismatches. Verification of this hypothesis was based both on a qualitative and quantitative analysis. The quantitative one was done with the use of Granger causality tests conducted for a group of 29 developed countries for the period 2004q3 - 2012q2 with the use of two different indicators of structural mismatches. Both the quantitative and qualitative analyses confirm the stated hypothesis.
In case of disabled people we cannot discuss full health. Depending on the type of disability, mental or physical health is affected, or both. That is why social health as a third component of health is so important. Social health is determined by the disabled persons’ ability to work in a healthy place [1, 2] The main aim of this study was to describe the scale of the unemployment among disabled people as a social health threat in Podlasie region. The detailed aim was to describe how sheltered work facilities deal with unemployment. To analyze the problem of unemployment and sheltered work facilities activity we used information from GUS, the Regional Work Office in Białystok, the Podlasie Regional Office in Białystok, the Podlasie Department PFRON and local self-government. The results show that unemployment among disabled people is a big problem in Poland – among 4,085,000 disabled people in Poland, 3,550,000 are unemployed or professionally inactive. At the end of 2005 in the Podlasie region there were 2,315 of disabled people, which were 3.2% of all unemployed in the region. The following conclusions were drawn from the above-mentioned results: 1. The number of disabled people to the Podlasie is lower than the average for Poland; according to NSP data from 2002 there are approximately 143 disabled people per 1,000 inhabitants, and in Podlasie – 129 per 1000 inhabitants. 2. The main social health threat of disabled people aged 15-65 in Podlasie is unemployment.
This paper examines the short- and long- term effects of increasing minimum wage rates for farm workers in South Africa on structural unemployment and rising food prices in the economy. The Pearson correlation model was used to establish association between variables. Analysis found a negative association (–0.651) between wage rate and employment of farm workers, while a positive (0.021) association was found to exist between wage rate (W) increases and food prices (Fp). No association (0.001) was found between employment and food prices (Fp). Co-integration was further employed to determine the short-term and long-term relationships, and the analysis found wages to have a positive and significant (0.453) effect on structural unemployment of farm workers. Unemployment was observed to be wage elastic in the long term and wage inelastic in the short term. The long-term relationship showed increasing unemployment in agriculture (L) and rising food prices (Fp) (1.168), while the short-term relationship showed a signifi cant error correction coeffi cient (ECT) with an expected starting point of 41.9% adjustment rate towards long-term equilibrium within a year. Structural analysis confi rmed an inelastic demand for basic food. The study suggest government subsidies to farmers through cost-cutting technologies and farm worker’s skills development on the use of these technologies.
Subject and purpose of work: This article analyzes the factors depicted in the literature as essential for the emergence of far-right parties and assesses the importance of unemployment, immigration and political establishments in the failures of the far-right wing parties in Sweden and Finland in early 2000s. Materials and methods: Multi-methods approach is used in this study including case studies and a novel technique based on Boolean algebra. Results: The findings of this paper lead to the conclusion that the correlation between unemployment rates and the electoral strength of far-right parties is weak and does not support simplistic thesis such as high unemployment leads to extremism. Moreover, despite objectively favorable conditions in terms of high immigration rates, the presence of non-European immigrants in a country does not in itself explain the emergence of far-right parties. Conclusions: The study points to the importance of political factors such as the differences between the mainstream parties and tackling the immigration issue by the Liberal Party in Sweden and the wide ideological span of the coalition government and the role of Finland’s special relationship with the USSR that militated against the emergence of far-right parties in these countries.
