Published: November 2022

The purpose of this study was to explore the Job Burnout and Exploitation among Government and Private sector Employee. Burnout is defined as a symptom of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment at work due to work activity (Meshach, 1982). Burnout is a prolonged response to chronic emotional and interpersonal stressors on the job, and is defined by the three dimensions of exhaustion, cynicism, and inefficacy. Wright (1997) proposes a related definition of exploitation though it is not formulated in terms of the concept of rent. In addition to the causal link between advantages and disadvantages of classes, Wright requires that the advantaged class depend on the fruits of labor of the disadvantaged class for exploitation to exist. Thus when the European settlers displaced Native Americans they did not exploit by obtaining an advantage at the expense of Native Americans; they engaged in “no exploitative economic oppression.”The sample consisted of 60 employees from government and private sector in Kheda and Ahmadabad. This includes 30 male and 30 female Government & private sector employees. (Bank/ LIC) The instruments used to measure the variables were: 1. job burnout and 2. Exploitation. The tool used for the research is job burnout scale developed by Zaki Akhtar and exploitation scale by Ramandeep Kaur and Mena Jhamat. Job- burnout scale has 30 statements, out of which 28 are positive and 2 are negative. And exploitation scale has 46 items.  Data will be analyzed by‘t’ test. The findings of the study indicated that a major portion of the employee’ population faced moderately low Job burnout and exploitation and the remaining faced moderately high job burnout and exploitation. Experience and gender did not affect the job burnout and exploitation among employee.

Regardless of the beneficial effects gained by students who participate in ‘Out-of-school’ activities, it is necessary to find out if it causes any detrimental effect on them due to over scheduling. The activity patterns of 1820 young south-Indian adolescents between the age group of 12 to 14 years were studied to investigate the relationship between participation in out-of-school activities and stress. The tool ‘Activity stress indicator’ was modified exclusively based on the “The over- scheduled child” tool developed by Rosenfeld and Wise. The study was conducted in Chennai during the period of January 2011 to April 2011. The collected data was analyzed using appropriate statistical tests with SPSS version 16.Results indicated that majority of the female adolescents have higher activity related stress than the male adolescents (p=0.018). Further, children who participated in competitions out-of-school had greater stress compared to the non-participants (p=0.017). The key finding of the study illustrates that activity stress was significantly higher among over-scheduled participants than those who had moderate to minimal activity levels (p=0.021). Thus, appropriate interventions must be planned in order to reduce the stress levels caused by over scheduling of out-of-school activities among young adolescents.

Необходимость вычисления удельных расходов на регламентное техническое обслуживание инфраструктурного сооружения, в том числе спортивно-оздоровительного комплекса, объясняется экономическими требованиями к определению составляющих затрат на его техническое обслуживание и ремонт. При этом возможно применение различных методов, которые могут быть использованы для анализа эффективности соответствующих технологий (схем) технического обслуживания инфраструктурного сооружения и определения наиболее подходящей конфигурации системы управления такими технологиями. Поэтому на стадии эксплуатации столь дорогостоящего инфраструктурного объекта специалистам в области моделирования процесса управления спортивно-оздоровительным комплексом крайне желательно иметь в своём распоряжении количественные приближённые оценки взаимосвязей между параметрами метода и результатом его применения. В данной статье автором предложена методика вычисления удельных расходов на регламентное техническое обслуживание инфраструктурного сооружения спортивно-оздоровительного комплекса при наличии указанных условий.

The need for unit costs calculations concerning regular routine maintenance of infrastructural premises including the ones of sports and health complex is based on economical standards and requirements to maintenance costs elements. Different methods might be used meanwhile which may be implemented in order to analyze the efficiency of relevant technologies and schemes of providing routine maintenance to different infrastructures as well as to define the most suitable configuration of such technologies management system. Hence during the period of operation of such an expensive object of infrastructure it highly preferable for managers in the realm of management process modeling to have quantitative assessment of inter-linkage between the method parameters and the results of implementation whereof. The author proposes herein the method of unit costs calculation concerning regular routine maintenance of an infrastructure of sports and health complex when the above mentioned conditions are met.

Приграничные регионы представляют собой территории, на которых наиболее остро проявляются угрозы экономической безопасности. Их неэффективная нейтрализация может вести к распространению угроз экономической безопасности во внутренние регионы страны и дестабилизации развития. Устойчивость развития является одним из ключевых императивов современности, и выявление взаимосвязей между экономической безопасностью приграничного региона и устойчивостью его социальноэкономического развития создает условия для повышения эффективности управления.

Frontier regions are territories most at risk of economic security threat. Insufficient neutralization of the risks might result in wide spread of economic security threats into the hinterland and destabilization of the development. Sustainability of development is considered to be one of the key imperatives of modernity and revealing inter-linkages between economic security of a frontier region and sustainability of its social and economic development create conditions for strengthening management efficiencies.

Authors: Герсонская Ирина Валерьевна
Published: November 2022

В статье рассмотрены основные современные модели функционирования государственного сектора. Автор считает, что для любой страны характерна своя «национальная модель» государственного сектора экономики, но при этом выделяет его общие черты в различных группах государств. Экономическая теория выделяет западноевропейскую, североамериканскую и азиатскую модели государственного сектора, которые и были проанализированы автором. Автор также изучает особенности российской модели государственного сектора экономики и считает важным оценку эффективности деятельности такого сектора в масштабах национальной экономики. Поэтому автором приведена сравнительная характеристика моделей государственного сектора экономики и установлены возможные взаимосвязи в процессе его функционирования.

We consider main current models of public sector. We believe that any country has its own "national model" of public sector; meanwhile we mark out its features that various groups of states have in common. Economic theory distinguishes West-European, North-American and Asian models of public sector that are analyzed in the research. We also look at peculiar features of Russian model of public sector and stress the role of assessing the effectiveness of the sector in question on the scale of the national economy. That is why we carry out a comparative analysis of various models of public sector and establish possible interconnections during its operation.
