The higher employment levels are due to higher women's labor force participation rates and fewer people on disability, early pensions, or long-term unemployment. Both of these variables are heavily influenced by social policy. The Nordic countries have policies in place that facilitate the integration of mothers with small children into the labor market, such as parental leave, child care, and part-time work arrangements with social benefits. The public sector services provided to families - not just for child care but also for elderly care, continuing education, transport, etc. - constitute an alternative path to employment generation, superior in job quality to the private service sector. Public sector service jobs provide decent wages, working conditions, and benefits, thus forming p...

The use of e-business technologies between supply chain organizations has primarily been examined from the viewpoint of buying firms or retailers, with little attention given to the benefits accrued to suppliers. Further, previous studies have been limited to either financial or marketing performance measures, or a narrow range of operational measures. This study builds on research in this area by testing a model of the relationship between supplier use of e-business technologies in communication with their primary buyer, degree of buyer-supplier coordination, and a complete set of benefits that include strategic and operational performance measures. Using data from 241 first-tier OEM suppliers in the computer industry, the findings show that supplier use of e-business technologies posi...
