Self-employment, illness, and the social security system
Meagre government-provided formal supports may adversely impact the health and wellbeing of self-employed workers. This study points to ways that statutory social protection programs should be decoupled from benefits provided by employers. Instead, government can introduce a comprehensive program that may compensate or protect low-income individuals irrespective of employment status

Maternal health literacy and health numeracy conceptualizations in public health
Despite unprecedented advancement in educational opportunities and access to information, maternal health literacy (MHL) and health numeracy (HN) skills remain low in North America. By enhancing MHL, the educated civic public-those who have the capacity, skills, and knowledge to apply prose and numerical health information-engages more proactively in public health practice. The purpose of this scoping review was to map the existing empirical evid…
Does an alignment of employment policies and individual preferences affect intention to stay in the profession? Evidence from Canadian Midwives
BACKGROUND: This study examines whether alignment of actual and preferred employment policies, including compensation method, employment status, and work schedule, affect midwives' intention to stay in the profession. The study further investigates the moderating effect of financial-rewards satisfaction and compares midwives' policy preferences in urban/rural practices. METHODS: Cross-sectional survey data from 549 midwives across Canada were ana…
Causes of the causes
Retention of health care professionals is a global concern, but the literature on this topic is dominated by empirical work. This article explores retention among midwives practising in Canada by utilizing Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory. Drawing on the interviews with 29 registered midwives across Canada, the article examines the applicability of the ecological systems theory to the analysis of workplace retention. It asserts that the…
“I was giving someone who didn’t have a voice a voice”
In the study of gerontology, fieldwork with older adults is often used to enhance students’ understanding of the aging process. While assignments based on interactions with older adults are a common practice in teaching students enrolled in gerontology studies, we know less about the impact of such activities on students from other disciplines. This paper summarizes students’ experiences with an assignment offered to a diverse cohort of undergrad…

Professional integration as a process of professional resocialization
The shield of professional status
This article examines the intersecting roles of gender, ethnicity, and professional status in shaping the experiences of internationally educated health professionals in Canada. The article is based on 140 semi-structured qualitative interviews with internationally trained nurses and physicians who came to Canada within past 10 years with the intention to practice their profession. Describing the challenging process of professional integration in…
Embodied Motherhood
Based on in-depth interviews, this article examines a sample of 48 Canadian women's feelings about their changed postpartum bodies, their sense of self, and the factors that affect both. Our findings suggest that understanding women's postpartum feelings requires contextualizing them in the work of infant care and women's life circumstances, as well as ideologies about mothering and feminine appearance. Motherhood afforded the women in this study…
Pregnant Bodies in Social Context
This article examines the role of social context in the construction of meanings attached to the pregnant body. Analyzing interviews with 42 women who, during the time of the interview, were either pregnant or had given birth to a child within the last 12 months, I explore (1) the role of social context in assigning social value to the pregnant body; and (2) how the meaning attached to pregnancy changes as pregnant women move from one social cont…
Conceptualizing Professional Diaspora
Converting to belong
The paper examines religious conversion to Judaism among young ‘Russian’ immigrant girls in Israel. Looking into the process of conversion in religious boarding schools for girls only (Ulpana) and in the broader context of the Israeli nation‐state, we examine the strategies the educators contrive in inculcating religiosity among the girls, how they legitimise and facilitate their self‐transformation, and mobilise them to desire a religious subjec…
