The purpose of the article is the clarification of the content and functions of information and methodological support of the equilibrium between professional mobility and quality of working life of management staff. The main objectives of the article are systematization and clarification of the grounds for the comprehensive approach to a new and enriched subject of study, the choice of methods that correspond to the nature of the actual material, conditions and purpose of the particular study. The relevance of the research topic is determined by the lack of a paradigm for studying the equilibrium between professional mobility and quality of working life of management staff, the need for significant refinements of research and practical implementation of personnel management with unique knowledge, skills and abilities. The effectiveness of the manager's influence on the working activity of such subordinates largely depends on understanding the essence of their personal potential for professional mobility and quality of working life. Clarification of the main idea of the study, hypotheses of the principles, conceptual and categorical support, research methods of professional mobility and quality of working life need analysis and justification. The article offers a list of concepts and categories that can systematically reflect the basic coordinate system of the study, and to extend it in case of need. Professional mobility of management staff (individual employee, group, team, staff, enterprise) is recommended to be considered as its integrative quality, which combines, first, the formed internal need for success in life, which is manifested in activities, provides self-determination and self-realization in life and profession; secondly – the ability to work professionally, thirdly – the knowledge base of professional activity, fourthly, self-awareness of own professional mobility, formed on the basis of reflection on readiness for change in the profession; fifth – the desire to change oneself, own professional field, own living environment. Personality in the context of the purpose of the article is seen as an individual who occupies a certain position in society, performs a certain social role, is able to understand his dependence on his environment, and consciously ensure the mutual benefit of coexistence therewith. When writing the article, a system of classical empirical and theoretical methods of economic research was used, supplemented by the methods of the humanities.

Technological and demographic changes have actualized the question of the influence of the nature of employment and the parameters of the workplace on the quality of a person’s working life. A scientific review and analysis of the impact of current trends in employment modes on the quality of human life is presented. Based on the literature review, it has been concluded that if there is unanimity among scientists about the positive impact of the regime of protected and standard employment on the quality of life, there is active debate about the impact of the regime of vulnerable and precarious employment. Also, based on the analysis of the literature, it has been determined that people’s subjective satisfaction does not always coincide with a positive impact on the objective quality of life. The study is based on comparative and correlation analysis as a method for processing statistical data from the OECD, ILO and WB. The employment regimes were classified according to four enlarged groups: economic sectors, professions, status, and employment regime. The assessments of the quality of life were classified according to three indicators: the human development index, the quality of life index and the international happiness index. The most important factors in the development of the labor market, influencing the quality of working life, have been identified: parameters of the quality of the workplace (the level of wages, employment stability, qualifications of workers, the level of social and legal guarantees) and the general level of employment. The most reasoned point of view was revealed: the regime of standard protected employment (permanent full-time work under a formal contract) has a positive effect, and the regime of precarious work (various options for informal, temporary or part-time employment) has a negative impact on the quality of life. The protected employment regime (hired labor and selfemployment as an entrepreneur) has a positive effect, while the vulnerable employment regime (individual self-employment and intra-family employment) has a negative impact on the quality of life. The transition to a “new” economy and highly skilled jobs has a significant impact on the quality of working life. The opinion of experts about non-standard forms of employment as a single category is refuted. The positive influence of the mode of part-time employment on the quality of life is revealed, the contradictory influence of the mode of temporary employment on the quality of life is shown. Achievement of material well-being and sociopolitical stability to a large extent contradicts the subjective happiness of people and the protection of the environment.

Privatisation affects tens of thousands of workers in Bangladesh, though most research has focused on the relationships between privatisation and profitability of this developing country’s privatisation programmes. This study, therefore, is an attempt to shed light on workers who are very vulnerable and examines the impact of privatisation on workers’ quality of working life. Employing document analysis and semi-structured face-to-face interviews with privatised and state-owned organisations’ workers in Bangladesh, this study finds that workers’ compensation, job security, access to trade unions, and leave entitlements in most privatised case study organisations are less than their counterparts in comparable state-owned organisations. These findings aim at contributing to the body of research by empirically investigating the impact of privatisation on workers who are left behind and possess important implications for the privatisation programmes in Bangladesh as it informs that there is a need to reassess the privatisation programmes through greater awareness of the negative effects of privatisation on workers and renew efforts to develop an approach that is sensitive to the Bangladeshi context.

PurposeGiven the negative consequences of job burnout for both individual auditors and audit firms, the present study aims to examine the effect of auditors' personal characteristics, working life quality and psychological well-being on auditors' job burnout.Design/methodology/approachWe chose 240 auditors (junior, senior, manager and partner) who work at 53 audit and public accounting firms in Mashhad during 2015–2016 as our sample. The respondents were randomly selected and the data were gathered through the distribution of questionnaires of Walton’s (1973) quality of working, Ryff’s (1995) psychological well-being and Maslach and Jackson’s (1984) job burnout. We also employ structural equation modeling (SEM) along with statistical path analysis to test our hypotheses by using R statistical software.FindingsConsistent with our expectations and prior literature, our findings suggest that auditors' job burnout is significantly and positively influenced by auditors' personal traits, quality of working life and psychological well-being.Originality/valueThe present study is quite remarkable and unique in that it focuses on a specific audit market where there are significant differences in socio-economic, political and cultural factors with those of Western or European developed markets. The results provided in this paper could be fruitful for auditors, regulators and policymakers.
