Sara Riso
Sara Riso ingħaqdet ma' Eurofound fl-2006 u bħalissa hija maniġer anzjan tar-riċerka fl-unità tal-Ħajja tax-Xogħol. Hija involuta f'proġetti ta' riċerka li jiffokaw fuq id-diġitalizzazzjoni u l-kundizzjonijiet tax-xogħol. Qabel ma ngħaqdet ma' Eurofound, Sara mexxiet proġetti ta' riċerka għal assoċjazzjonijiet u netwerks Ewropej kbar bbażati f'Brussell. Il-bażi akkademika tagħha hija fil-psikoloġija, il-komunikazzjoni u l-lingwi. L-interess ewlieni tar-riċerka tagħha huwa fl-esplorazzjoni ta' stressuri ġodda fil-post tax-xogħol li jirriżultaw minn diġitalizzazzjoni akbar tax-xogħol, prattiki organizzattivi li qed jevolvu, u strateġiji ta' ġestjoni tal-bidla biex jindirizzaw l-isfidi li jġib magħha d-diġitalizzazzjoni f'ambjenti tax-xogħol moderni.

Kif nistgħu nindirizzaw b'mod effettiv is-cyberbullying fuq il-post tax-xogħol?
Matul l-aħħar għaxar snin, it-teknoloġiji tal-informazzjoni u l-komunikazzjoni biddlu l-mod kif l-impjegati jaħdmu u jikkomunikaw ma' xulxin. Filwaqt li d-diġitalizzazzjoni tax-xogħol toffri ħafna benefiċċji, l-aċċess mifrux għall-apparat diġitali fil-ħajja tax-xogħol ipprovda art fertili għall-emerġenza ta' forom ġodda ta' mġiba antisoċjali, inkluż iċ-ċiberbullying fuq il-post tax-xogħol. F'dan l-episodju ta' Eurofound Talks, Mary McCaughey titkellem mal-Maniġer Anzjan tar-Riċerka tal-Eurofound Sara Riso dwar x'jikkostitwixxi cyberbullying, kemm hi mifruxa l-kwistjoni taċ-ċiberbullying fuq il-post tax-xogħol, u jekk hemmx biżżejjed leġiżlazzjoni u regoli fuq il-post tax-xogħol biex jindirizzawha b'mod effettiv. Huma jiddiskutu kif il-bullying u ċ-ċiberbullying ħarġu bħala kwistjonijiet prominenti fid-dibattiti ta' politika nazzjonali, primarjament bħala problemi li jaffettwaw liż-żgħażagħ aktar milli bħala fenomenu aktar ġenerali fuq il-post tax-xogħol u ta' detriment għall-benesseri tal-ħaddiema. Kemm jekk online jew wiċċ imb'wiċċ – jidher li l-bullying fuq il-post tax-xogħol huwa aktar prevalenti milli komunement rikonoxxut.

COVID-19: Fast-forward to a new era of employee surveillance
With remote working becoming the new normal for many workers, it is surely the case that many employers are anxious to ensure that their employees are putting in full working days. Companies are likely to be investing in and deploying digital technologies for tracking employee performance much more than before the pandemic. The pervasiveness of new digital technologies – whether for working remotely or in the workplace – has raised a host of new issues and concerns around privacy and data protection as well as work organisation, control and autonomy. When it comes to tracking what employees are doing, there is a balance to be struck between the legitimate business interests of the employer and employees’ right to privacy.

Technology is our ally against the Coronavirus
Fear has been mounting in the debate around new technologies and the implications for the future of work. But the Coronavirus outbreak is unveiling some real positives of technological advances. Digital communication tools are supporting and enhancing working from home, while innovative companies are leveraging more nascent technologies – such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and 3D printing – to deal with the frontline challenges of the crisis.

We hear more and more about the platform economy, with the debate often revolving around the potential long-term implications of its growth on the labour market and the impact on traditional and established businesses and industries.

Restructuring: Do unions still matter?
Trade unions in many EU Member States face the issue of declining membership. This is a fundamental challenge for organised labour, but it is premature to speak about the redundancy unions: when it comes to important decisions affecting the workplace, restructuring being one, trade unions remain a powerful mechanism of employee voice. Latest data from Eurofound’s European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS) confirms that the presence of a trade union in the workplace is associated with greater employee voice and involvement in decision-making on restructuring.

Restructuring: We need to make sure those that stay behind are not forgotten
Company restructuring may hit the headlines less in good times, but it remains a central experience in the working life of many. According to the most recent European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS) data, just under one in three (30%) employees in the EU reported that restructuring had taken place at their workplace in the preceding three years. A similar proportion reported working in downsized workplaces. Large scale restructuring involving job loss is usually well-documented, and there is rightly a focus on what options there are for those who have lost their jobs. But what impact does all this have on those that are left behind?

Avoiding the quick fix approach to solving youth unemployment
A key priority for EU policy makers is to combat high levels of youth unemployment. Supporting young people to start a new business is increasingly regarded as a way to achieve this goal. And yet the understanding of what drives the success and failure of youth entrepreneurship policies remains incomplete. In a rush to deliver ‘quick fixes’ to the problem of youth unemployment, governments are falling short of devising well-coordinated policy interventions firmly grounded in evidence that could, in the longer term, be more effective and save public money.
