FACTORES ASOCIADOS A LA PARTICIPACIÓN LABORAL DE TRABAJADORES SECUNDARIOS DE LOS HOGARES DEL DISTRITO DE GUADALUPE FACTORS ASSOCIATED TO THE LABOR PARTICIPATION OF SECONDARY WORKERS OF THE HOMES OF THE DISTRICT OF GUADALUPE Carlos Sánchez, Carlos Minchón DOI: https://doi.org/10.33017/RevECIPeru2009.0015/ RESUMEN El presente trabajo fue realizado con el propósito de determinar los factores asociados a la participación laboral de trabajadores secundarios de los hogares del distrito de Guadalupe, provincia de Pacasmayo, departamento de La Libertad en Perú. Se evaluó factores del jefe del hogar (ingreso económico, educación, sexo y edad), del trabajador secundario (edad, años de estudio, parentesco con el jefe y sexo) y de la familia (ingreso familiar, tamaño de la familia, presencia de miembros en la familia menores a 5 años y de 5 a 13 años). Como indicadores de la participación laboral se consideró a la decisión de participar en el mercado laboral del trabajador secundario como al número de horas semanales laboradas. La muestra obtenida mediante muestreo unietápico, estuvo conformada por 552 viviendas (UPM’s) y 1094 trabajadores secundarios (USM’s), recolectándose la información mediante encuesta, entre enero y febrero del 2008. Se empleó el modelo de regresión probit y el modelo de regresión tobit, estimándose los modelos con Stata 9.2. Los factores asociados positivamente fueron la edad del trabajador secundario, los ingresos familiares. Los factores asociados negativamente fueron el ingreso del jefe del hogar y el tamaño de la familia. Los factores cualitativos fueron jefe del hogar mujer, presencia de menores de 5 años en la familia y trabajador secundario varón. Palabras claves: Trabajador secundario, participación laboral, factores asociados, probit, tobit. ABSTRACT The present work was carried out in order to determine the factors associated with the labour participation of secondary workers of the homes in Guadalupe, Pacasmayo, Peru. Several factors were evaluated head of home (salary, education, sex and age), of the secondary worker (age, years of study, kinship with the head and sex), and of the family (salary family, family size, family members under 5 years and from 5 to 13 years old 5 years and of 5 to 13 years).Indicators of the labour participation it was considered the decision to participate to the labour market as to the number of weekly labour hours. The sample, obtained the through the unietapico sample, was conformed by 552 houses and 1094 secondary workers, collecting the information by surveys, between January and February 2008. The Probit and Tobit models regression were used but it was esteemed the models with Stata 9.2. The positive associated factors were the age of the secondary worker, the familiar income. The negative associated factors were the head of the homes salary the family size. The qualitative factors were head of the home woman, formed members under 5 years old and male secondary workes.

The participation of women in the labour force has been steadily rising over the years, especially with tremendous human capital investment in educating more women at tertiary levels. However, the tertiary educated women labour participation remains low, particularly among Muslim women. Therefore, this paper explores how tertiary educated Muslim women make their decision to work. This study surveyed 139 tertiary educated women and found their decisions to work are affected by their families’ needs and/or responsibilities, and may not be due to their lives’ goals and dreams. The majority of them work for the sake of money and hence will work if offered jobs meet their expectations in term of salary and position. Furthermore, they will leave the workforce if they need to fulfil their responsibilities at home. Therefore, to retain or to encourage more women especially those with high qualifications to be in the labour market, stakeholders must provide family-friendly jobs and suitable work environment such as flexible working arrangements. More importantly, stakeholders must be able to convince the family members of tertiary educated women to release them to the labour market.

We sought to identify the prevalence and factors associated with alcohol abuse among farmers living in a medium-sized municipality in northeastern Brazil during 2019 and 2020. Trained interviewers applied the standardized questionnaire to 450 participants. Sociodemographic, health, income and work characteristics were investigated. The tracking of alcohol misuse was done using the CAGE questionnaire (Cut down, Annoyed by criticism, Guilty and Eye-opener), being the cut-off point ≥ 2. Poisson Regression was applied with robust estimation to verify the reasons of prevalence (RP) in bivariate and multivariate analysis. The prevalence of alcohol abuse among farmers was 32% (95% CI 27.8–36.4). Factors such as being male, having a diagnosis of mental disorder in the family, being a smoker, and using drugs were associated with the higher prevalence of the outcome. Being 60 years old or older was associated with a lower prevalence of alcohol abuse. These results indicate the need for social support to this group of workers in the context of occupational health.

Abstract Introduction According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), 3 out of 10 adolescents report that they suffer violence in dating. In the Mexican case, 76% of adolescents between 15 and 17 years have suffered 17% sexual and 15% physical psychological violence. In 2019, Veracruz registered in the first place of feminicide in Mexico with a rate of 3.44 per 100 thousand women Methods A cross-sectional, prospective, observational and analytical study was carried out from December to February 2020. Middle-high school students from the Veracruz-Boca del Río region were included, who had a dating relationship and were excluded those who did not accept to participate. The CADRI test was applied to quantify “violence committed and victimization in dating”. Results 741 students were included. There was a prevalence of violence committed of 86.2% and victimization of 89.2%. Being a woman, having active sex life, relationships over 12 months, living in a rural area, having a history of physical, psychological and sexual violence in previous relationships, daily life and in your family were the main factors associated with the violence committed, highlighting physical violence in previous relationships (OR 7.36 95% CI 1.8-31.6) (p < 0.05). With regard to victimization, the associated factors were being a woman, having a relationship greater than 12 months, having suffered physical, psychological and sexual violence in the family, daily life and previous relationships, the main one being psychological violence (OR 7.1 IC95 % 2.5-19.8) in previous relationships, as well as sexual violence in everyday life (OR 6.0 IC95% 1.4-25.1) (p < 0.05.) Conclusions The violence generated and victimization share associated factors, the most important being women, having a history of physical, psychological and sexual violence in the family, daily life and previous relationships. Key messages Women suffer more aggressions at different stages of their lives, which may increase the risk to tolerate aggressions or be more aggressive or suffer mental health problems. We must study if the violence generated by women is a response to a previous aggression.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: Public Institution(s). Main funding source(s): Linnaeus University, Sweden Background High incidence and mortality make cardiac arrest one of the leading causes of death in western countries. Death from sudden cardiac arrest implies a stressful and challenging situation for bereaved family members with increased risk for prolonged grief disorder. This serious disorder needs to be identified and treated. Purpose To explore factors associated with symptoms of prolonged grief among bereaved family members of persons who died from sudden cardiac arrest. Methods This cross-sectional observational study was based on a questionnaire to bereaved family members six month after the death. Background questions about the family member and the loss, the Prolonged Grief disorder instrument (PG-13) and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) were included and analyzed using univariate and multiple linear regression. Results This study included 108 family members who were adult children (n = 55, 51%), spouse (n = 36, 33%), or significant others (n = 17, 16%) to a person that died of sudden cardiac arrest. The mean age of the family members was 61 years (range 25-87), most were women (n = 74, 69%), and did not have a university degree (n = 74, 69%). A majority of the cardiac arrests took place out of hospital (n = 59, 81%). One third of the family members were present during the resuscitation (n = 35, 32%). A minority was offered professional support from the healthcare service (n = 93, 86%) and few sought healthcare for problems in relation to the loss (n = 19, 18%) and/or received professional support from a psychologist or equivalent (n = 16, 15%). In total, 18% (n = 19) reported symptoms of prolonged grief and the prevalence was even higher among spouses (n = 10, 29%). In the univariate regression models, being a spouse of the deceased (B = 6.34, p = 0.004, R2 = 0.08), sought healthcare related to the loss (B = 10.51, p < 0.001, R2 = 0.15), offered support from the healthcare related to the loss (B = 6.28, p = 0.030, R2 = 0.05), received professional support for the loss (B = 7.30, p = 0.011, R2 = 0.06), and lower levels of perceived social support (B=-0.28, p < 0.001, R2 = 0.16) were significantly associated with higher levels of symptoms of prolonged grief. All these variables, except offered support from the healthcare, were still significant in the multiple regression model and explained 35% of the total variance in PG-13 (F(4, 96)=12.96, p < 0.001). Age, sex, education, and presence during resuscitation were not significantly associated with symptoms of prolonged grief in any of the regression models. Conclusion Prolonged grief is a significant problem in bereaved family members of persons who died from sudden cardiac arrest, particularly in spouses, those in need of professional support from the healthcare, and those with low social support. Bereavement support should be offered to reduce the risk to developing prolonged grief after unsuccessful resuscitation and sudden death from cardiac arrest.

BackgroundTo improve care it is necessary to feed back experiences of those receiving care. Of patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs), approximately one-quarter die, and few survivors recollect their experiences, so family members have a vital role. The most widely validated tool to seek their views is the Family Satisfaction in the Intensive Care Unit questionnaire (FS-ICU).ObjectivesTo test face and content validity and comprehensibility of the FS-ICU (phase 1). To establish internal consistency, construct validity and reliability of the FS-ICU; to describe family satisfaction and explore how it varies by family member, patient, unit/hospital and other contextual factors and by country; and to model approaches to sampling for future use in quality improvement (phase 2).DesignMixed methods: qualitative study (phase 1) and cohort study (phase 2).SettingNHS ICUs (n = 2, phase 1;n = 20, phase 2).ParticipantsHealth-care professionals, ex-patients, family members of ICU patients (n = 41, phase 1). Family members of ICU patients (n = 12,303, phase 2).InterventionsNone.Main outcome measuresKey themes regarding each item of the 24-item FS-ICU (FS-ICU-24) (phase 1). Overall family satisfaction and domain scores of the FS-ICU-24 (phase 2).ResultsIn phase 1, face validity, content validity and comprehensibility were good. Adaptation to the UK required only minor edits. In phase 2, one to four family members were recruited for 60.6% of 10,530 patients (staying in ICU for 24 hours or more). Of 12,303 family members, 7173 (58.3%) completed the questionnaire. Psychometric assessment of the questionnaire established high internal consistency and criterion validity. Exploratory factor analysis indicated new domains:satisfaction with care,satisfaction with informationandsatisfaction with the decision-making process. All scores were high with skewed distributions towards more positive scores. For family members of ICU survivors, factors associated with increased/decreased satisfaction were age, ethnicity, relationship to patient, and visit frequency, and patient factors were acute severity of illness and invasive ventilation. For family members of ICU non-survivors, average satisfaction was higher but no family member factors were associated with increased/decreased satisfaction; patient factors were age, acute severity of illness and duration of stay. Neither ICU/hospital factors nor seasonality were associated. Funnel plots confirmed significant variation in family satisfaction across ICUs. Adjusting for family member and patient characteristics reduced variation, resulting in fewer ICUs identified as potential outliers. Simulations suggested that family satisfaction surveys using short recruitment windows can produce relatively unbiased estimates of average family satisfaction.ConclusionsThe Family-Reported Experiences Evaluation study has provided a UK-adapted, psychometrically valid questionnaire for overall family satisfaction and three domains. The large sample size allowed for robust multilevel multivariable modelling of factors associated with family satisfaction to inform important adjustment of any future evaluation.LimitationsResponses to three free-text questions indicate the questionnaire may not be sensitive to all aspects of family satisfaction.Future workReservations remain about the current questionnaire. While formal analysis of the free-text questions did not form part of this proposal, brief analysis suggested considerable scope for improvement of the FS-ICU-24.Study registrationCurrent Controlled Trials ISRCTN47363549.Funding detailsThe National Institute for Health Research Health Services and Delivery Research programme.

The present study intended to investigate the performance of agricultural labour market in Jaipur district of Rajasthan. A cluster of three villages (Jaitpura, Kanpura and Khushalpura) from Chomu tehsil of Jaipur district was randomly selected for the study. The sixty respondents were selected on a random basis from the particular cluster of villages. The pre-tested schedules were used for collection of primary data from the selected agricultural labour households during 2010-11. The collected data were processed and analyzed by using various statistical and mathematical tools. The frequency of labour credit interlocking was much more prominent as compared to labour-land interlocking except in one village (Khushalpura), more than half of the labour had borrowed money from their employers. There was no definite rate of interest on the loaned money from the employers. However, the employers recovered very high unspoken rate of interest in terms of a number of little owing jobs. The labour-land interlocking was, however, yet another form of wage labour since all the inputs were being provided by the landowners. It was varied in between 14-18 percent. However, the average wage/day earned in this system was higher (Rs. 175-190) than the average wage rate in the casual labour system. Family size, family income, socioeconomic status of the family and age had a significant effect on the probability of an agricultural labour household entering into interlocked arrangements.

The article analyzes the factors associated with the reduction of poverty between 2003 and 2006 in Argentina. In particular, it examines the role of the labour market, monetary transfers, and demographic factors in poverty exits, taking into account the family composition of households. The data used comes from the Encuestas Permanentes de Hogares (EPH) [Permanent Household Survey]. Results indicate that labour market events are the most important factors associated with these transitions because they are more frequent and also because they have a more significant impact on family incomes. In addition, the results show that households with children and female household heads face greater difficulties to exit poverty than the rest of the households.

Background: Malaria among pregnant women contributes to maternal anemia, low birth weight, spontaneous abortion, and infant deaths. In response to this serious health problem, regular use of the long-lasting insecticidal net is the most cost-effective method of preventing malaria. However, in most developing countries, including Ethiopia, long-lasting insecticidal net utilization by pregnant women is uncertain. Objectives: This study was conducted to measure the utilization of insecticidal net and to identify the associated factors with its utilization among pregnant women in Asgede Tsimbla district in 2017. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was employed and data were collected using interviewer-administered questionnaire. Systematic random sampling method was used to select 550 pregnant women. Data were entered into a computer using Epi Info (version 7) and exported to Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (version 21) for further analysis. Variables with P-value less than 0.05 were used to declare statistical significance between the dependent and the independent variables in multivariable logistic regression. Results: Among 550 pregnant women surveyed, 347 (63.1%) of the pregnant women slept under a long-lasting insecticidal net the night before the survey. Urban residence (OR [95% CI] = 1.9 [1.22-3.01]), family size of 3-5 and >5 (2.8 [1.53-5.22] and 2.4 [1.20-5.03], respectively), and history of malaria during their current pregnancy (3.0 [1.95-4.86]) were found to be the factors associated with pregnant women’s long-lasting insecticidal net utilization. Conclusion: Utilization of long-lasting insecticidal net was low, and place of residence, exposure status to malaria during their current pregnancy, and family size were the factors associated with long-lasting insecticidal net utilization.
