Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn Spain, the compensation model for statutory health personnel is complex, heterogeneous, and more oriented to rewarding complementary functions and activities, than to paying for the actual performance in the position of employee. The various attempts to incorporate incentives have been distorted by a civil service egalitarianist culture, and weak systemic governance. External attractors (private practice, etc.) for healthcare professionals are becoming more important and neutralize many intramural incentives. T...

Sexual violence and young people: "it is not something you are born with, but with what you learn"
CONCLUSIONS: In the perceptions of the young people, ambiguity seems to coexist with explicit references to the different ways in which it manifests itself and the influence of gender inequalities. Sex and life experience appear to influence these narratives. It is necessary to promote a more critical perspective on the social construction of SV and intimate relationships in the young population.PMID:38401370 | DOI:10.1016/j.gaceta.2024.102371 (Source: Gaceta Sanitaria)

What do we know and what should we know about the imbalances of doctors in Spain? Diagnosis and proposals. SESPAS Report 2024
This article characterizes the main features of the supply, demand, and labor markets for physicians in Spain, with an international and territorial perspective. It also presents some of the results of the simulation model for specialist physicians with a 2035 horizon and proposes strategic and short-term lines of action in the planning, regulation, and management of health professionals in Spain, with a focus on specialist physicians. In Spain there are high rates of physicians and medical graduates, but low rates of nurses, compared to other developed countries. Approximately 30% of practicing physicians (not considering...

Experiences in human resources planning for health: The case of physicians. Data and models. SESPAS Report 2024
Gac Sanit. 2024 Feb 13:S0213-9111(24)00012-8. doi: 10.1016/j.gaceta.2024.102365. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTVirtually all developed countries conduct physician planning exercises. We can learn from successful experiences. The modeling and projection of supply is technically complex, but it is a technical matter, whereas the assessment of demand or need, and therefore the outcome in terms of deficit or surplus, requires standards, usually in population ratios, which are based on expert judgments and belong to the normative universe. One type of technical problem insufficiently solved is that of converting "heads" into fu...
