Recent advances in technology have led to the rapid development of electronic monitoring in the workplace (Chen & Ross, 2007). Electronic monitoring is widely used in many industries, and there is no doubt that the size of the workforce subjected to it continues to grow (American Management Association, 2005; D’Urso, 2006). It is used by organizations due to its potential to optimize supervision and control processes, protect company assets, safeguard property information, and avoid costly litigation (Case & Young, 2002; Friedman & Reed, 2007). Electronic monitoring can become a central organizational tool for human resource management as well. It can have a profound impact on several HR functions. For example, an electronic monitoring system may be used as a source of data for performance management and performance evaluation and provide the basis for promotion, training, and development decisions (Wells, Moornan, & Werner, 2007). Due to these capabilities, electronic monitoring affects an array of work-related attitudes and behaviors of employees and management (Stanton, 2000b). Existing research is focusing on identifying the ways to make electronic monitoring acceptable to all stakeholders, by elucidating electronic monitoring designs that help maintain the motivation and well-being of individuals. However, we are only beginning to address the issue of the effects of organizational culture and human resource strategy on the role of electronic monitoring and its effectiveness within specific organizational contexts (Chen & Ross, 2005). These contextual factors may determine the role that electronic monitoring plays in managing human resources, from being one of the technology-enhanced human resource management practices devolved to line managers, to being a central part of the overall human resource strategy that supports various HR functions within an organization. The purpose of this article is to present a model of electronic monitoring effectiveness that combines the major electronic monitoring characteristics, their individual and organizational outcomes, and contextual variables that affect electronic monitoring acceptance and use.

This research has a singular and notable importance, because if something should concern a Higher Education Institution, it is knowing what is the destiny within society of the human resource trained in its classrooms, that product that the institution delivers to the community who are its graduates and professionals. For the Institutions of Higher Education it is satisfactory on the part of employers, that the training received in the Institution of Higher Education is indicated, that the majority of graduates and professionals are incorporated into the occupational market; that is to say; some exercise their profession and others do it in occupations that do not correspond to their profession, which is justified, being aware that one of the great problems of the contemporary world is undoubtedly the lack of demand for human resources for stable work, which according to Authorized and reliable studies of every 10 people who join the economically active population, only 3 have real possibilities of fully joining the labor market, either in the private or public sector.

This study investigates the coevolution of the sources of decline, the turnaround strategy and the human resource strategy (HRS) at Iberia Airlines, together with the influence of employee responses to these strategies. The analysis of several moments of organisational decline at Iberia, comparing measures adopted in pre- and post-financial crisis periods, shows that, in a sector experiencing a fiercely competitive transformation that negatively affects established companies, the use of downsizing in an organisation with internal deficiencies may create further problems within the company, while an HRS based on flexibility-oriented practices and a fostering approach to strategic negotiations will improve the requisite recovery strategy.
