Predictors of authorised, unauthorised and persistent absence among secondary school pupils in Scotland
This article examines the factors associated with persistent absenteeism (an absence rate of 10% or higher) and authorised and unauthorised absence among secondary school pupils in Scotland. Using linked administrative data, the analysis focuses on secondary school stages S1–S6 in three academic years. The analytical approach involves mixed‐effects modelling to predict probabilities of persistent absenteeism, followed by multilevel negative binom…
Remote4All
Disabled and/or neurodivergent people form 20% of the UK working population but their experience of remote working has been overlooked in research and practice. This research gave a voice to this community of workers to express their lived experience about how remote working can help to support their specific needs. Employing a qualitative design, we interviewed 24 disabled and/or neurodivergent remote workers across various UK organizations and …
Legacy imprints and categorisation shifts
What happens when workers experience abrupt transitions to virtual working? Drawing on interviews with employees who were unexpectedly shifted to virtual work overnight, we show that people carry legacy imprints : expectations from face-to-face settings that shape how they initially classify job features as demands or resources. When lived experience in the virtual context contradicts these expectations (e.g. online social gatherings feel exhaust…
Conceptualizing personality traits as “resource catalysts
The Conservation of Resources (COR) theory is one of the most widely cited models for understanding stress and motivation at work. Yet, a definitional problem remains when it comes to discerning what constitutes a resource, with personality trait constructs being particularly difficult to fit. In this paper, we assert that a resource should be conceptualized as (i) commonly valued; (ii) something that can be lost, depleted, or withdrawn; and (iii…
Resistance, tensions and consent to digital working in healthcare
Earlier research has extended knowledge about how the nature of healthcare work is changing, and the implications this has for professionals seeking to deliver effective, robust and state-of-the-art services. However, since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic there has been a rapid mobilization of digital services across the sector that has raised new challenges. In this Special Issue (SI), we therefore aim to offer novel insights on how new patte…
Moving away from, moving towards and moving against others
In the face of extreme and enduring stressors, a self-protection coping mode can be entered to conserve resources (Conservation of Resources (COR) theory principle 4). Self-protection coping is underexplored in COR theory yet may offer insights about how people deal with the significant challenges posed by work today. We investigate this using a large-group collaborative auto-ethnography (CAE) with 15 academic workers during a period when resourc…
Rural co-working
Coworking has been a largely urban phenomenon although new initiatives are emerging in rural areas. Rural coworking is partly a response to the growing need for ICT, which is unevenly provided across rural areas, and partly to the social needs of freelancers and home-workers. By combining technological and social functions, coworking spaces can play key roles in the progress of a Smart Countryside, supporting digital, knowledge-based and creative…
How rural coworking hubs can facilitate well-being through the satisfaction of key psychological needs
Once considered an urban phenomenon, rural enterprise hubs (REH) and rural coworking spaces (RCWS) are now increasing in popularity to support entrepreneurial rural communities. Whilst previous research has examined economic and community benefits, a focus on well-being benefits has been overlooked. Framed by self-determination theory, this empirical research investigates whether rural coworking is reported to enhance user’s well-being by fulfill…
Personality differences as predictors of action-goal relationships in work-email activity
Queer Histories and the Politics of Policing
Despite ongoing challenges to the criminalisation and surveillance of queer lives, police leaders are now promoted as allies and defenders of LGBT rights. However, in this book, Emma K. Russell argues that the surface inclusion of select LGBT identities in the protective aspirations of the law is deeply tenuous and conditional, and that police recognition is both premised upon and reproductive of an imaginary of' 'good queer citizens'—those who a…
Measuring affective well-being at work using short-form scales
Measuring affective well-being in organizational studies has become increasingly widespread, given its association with key work-performance and other markers of organizational functioning. As such, researchers and policy-makers need to be confident that well-being measures are valid, reliable and robust. To reduce the burden on participants in applied settings, short-form measures of affective well-being are proving popular. However, these scale…
Revisiting the Tasty Raid
This article extends beyond analysis of homophobic police practices at the Tasty raid that took place in Melbourne in 1994 to explore the ways in which queer politics interact with constructions of ‘respectability’ in the contexts of criminalisation, policing and state protection. I argue that the successful construction of legitimate victimhood by lesbian and gay Tasty patrons (achieved largely through signifiers of middle-class respectability a…
Pathways, race and gender responsive reform
In this article we take stock of a recent moment in penal history in Victoria, Australia, where agencies have implemented gender responsive policies to address the disproportionate growth in women’s prison numbers, and in particular the overrepresentation of women constructed as ‘culturally diverse’. We draw upon abolitionist and intersectional frames to provide a theoretical critique of this political event. Our analysis extends beyond the unita…
Writing on the wall
Tagging is a globally relevant occupation typically engaged in by adolescents, particularly those likely to come into contact with social and healthcare services (Fuhrer, 2004). This discussion aims to enhance understanding of tagging through a synthesis of international literature from a range of disciplines, which identifies and critically evaluates the impact of cogent social, political, economic, cultural and historical factors influencing ta…
