Barriers and motivating factors for licensed practical nurses to pursue a bachelor's degree in nursing

These findings suggest the need for tailored educational programs and support systems to facilitate LPNs' transition to higher educational levels, addressing both the motivators and barriers identified.PMID:38614674 | DOI:10.1016/j.profnurs.2024.01.010 (Source: Journal of Professional Nursing)

Climate emergency and decent work
The climate crisis and loss of biodiversity, two closely related threats to human and planetary health, meet the criteria for the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare an international public health emergency, as occurred with COVID-19 (1), and urged by numerous scientific journals (2).
Attaining decent work, understood as “opportunities for women and men to work in conditions of freedom, equity, security and human dignity” (3), in the context of the climate emergency, creates a paradox for worker health. Outdoor workers (notably those in agriculture and construction), many of them informal workers, are among th...

Gig Work and the Pandemic: Looking for Good Pay from Bad Jobs During the COVID-19 Crisis
Work Occup. 2023 Feb;50(1):60-96. doi: 10.1177/07308884221128511.ABSTRACTCOVID-19 led to work hour reductions and layoffs for many Americans with wage/salary jobs. Some gig work, however, which is usually considered precarious, remained available. We examine whether people doing gig microtasks right before the pandemic increased their microtask hours during COVID-19 and whether those changes helped them financially. Using data from workers on Amazon's Mechanical Turk platform from February, March, and April of 2020, we find that roughly one third of existing workers increased their microtask hours. Increases were larger fo...
