Meritocracy and Inequality in Selection

Demographic ...
Dismissals in Italy: Regulations and Good Practice
Dismissal is a delicate moment in the life of a worker, who suffers from the employer’s decision to end the agreement between them. But it is also a delicate moment for a Company, whose functioning is based on human capital and must therefore handle its relationships with its employees appropriately, even in the most difficult phases.#Dismissal is surrounded by a series of limits, of both a substantive ...
