The study was conducted among 123 previous unemployed, involving 88 reemployed and 35 interns. Questionnaires battery was administered in two waves {T1 and T2~ in the first month of reemployment and after three months. In this article, the data from T2 were analyzed, which allows observing the final results and interactions between research variables. The results showed emotional costs and GSE as significant predictors of coping in the work re-entry phase. Additionally, emotional costs partially mediate the effect of GSE on coping. The differences between both groups, the reemployed and interns were also analyzed.展开更多

These migrants are most likely to be caught in attending to the needs of their children or their elderly parents, both requiring support. Over a period of two years, 35 older Polish migrants were interviewed and they told their stories of the migration experience. It was found that they had to make choices and were faced with quite difficult decisions on whether they were going to leave children or parents in Poland while they were forced into a position where they had to find work outside their own country due to age discrimination. Both men and women expressed feelings of guilt at leaving sick parents, and at not being able to afford to travel back to Poland more regularly to be with their families. Without effective cost or free digital technology, these families would not be able to sustain communication channels and relationships would break down. Consequently both the economic and emotional costs to these families and the communities in which they live could be very high.展开更多
