Migration, Restrictions and the Impact on Labour Market

Migration is now at the forefront of European and national policy agendas. Therefore, it is important to remark that cultural and institutional barriers exist in migration between developed countries and the different regime of labour functioning proves that. This paper provides evidence for the role of quantitative and qualitative restrictions, presents a driving model of growth through migration channels and their impact on labour market and, most important, brings out an empirical analysis of migration within the OECD countries and Romanian migration to Canada. Following a simple decomposition of income growth, migration can impact on growth through labour supply, productivity and changes in transfers.migration, restrictions, labour market, migration model

Mechanism behind self-sustained oscillations in direct current glow discharges and dusty plasmas

An alternative explanation to the mechanism behind self-sustained oscillations of ions in direct current (DC) glow discharges is provided. Such description is distinguished from the one provided by the fluid models, where oscillations are attributed to the positive feedback mechanism associated with photoionization of particles and photoemission of electrons from the cathode. Here, oscillations arise as consequence of interaction between an ion and the surface charges induced by it at the bounding electrodes. Such mechanism provides an elegant explanation to why self-sustained oscillations occur only in the negative resistance region of the voltage-current characteristic curve in the DC glow discharges. Furthermore, this alternative description provides an elegant explanation to the formation of plasma fireballs in the laboratory plasma. It has been found that oscillation frequencies increase with ion's surface charge density, but at the rate which is significantly slower than it does with the electric field. The presented mechanism also describes self-sustained oscillations of ions in dusty plasmas, which demonstrates that self-sustained oscillations in dusty plasmas and DC glow discharges involve common physical processes.Comment: Accepted for publication in Physics of Plasmas; new references adde

Particularities of retail occupations

The gradual disappearance of barriers from the path of labour resources at worldwide level has a great contribution to amplification of anomalies of labour market, especially in structure and level of occupation and unemployment. The fluctuations of labour demand at international level are periodical and selective, and the required occupations imply an extremely high qualification or an unqualified work, fact that points out the lack of balance in labour domain. In consequence, the approach of employment must be made regarding the perspectives of national occupational structure, taking into account the tendencies and transformations from entire world. The aim of harmonization of Romania occupational structure with the one of European Union and the worldwide one imposes the concentration on main activities sectors that drive an economy to be competitive and creation of jobs and occupation specific to these sectors. The article brings out the problem of occupations from retail sector. It is presented the critical analysis of changes that took place in occupational system in general but also in retail in particular. The paper analyses also the occupational profile of retail employees from necessary competencies evolution point of view, identified by recent research of employers. A model that highlights the key areas of organization activities and retail store manager, contributing to sales of goods and services it is presented and examined from empirical point of view.occupational system, retail, "skills gaps", occupations, retail manager, technological changes
