[Men working through mobile applications in Brazil: Reflections from occupational health]. / Hombres que trabajan a través de aplicaciones móviles en Brasil: reflexiones desde la salud ocupacional.

Work through mobile applications emerged as an alternative for many Brazilian men during the economic crisis and rising unemployment. However, these workers operate informally, without a formal employment relationship, leading to labor precariousness and a lack of workers' rights. Using a theoretical-reflexive, this study analyzes the intersection between occupational health, the platformization of work, and the specific challenges faced by male delivery app workers, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Reflective categories are divided into two thematic sections: "Labor insertion through mobile applications in Brazil and the algorithmic work model" and "men, health, and motorcycles: occupational health and male behavior in app-based delivery work." The study examines the expansion of this type of work in the Brazilian socio-economic context, the lack of security and labor protection for these workers, as well as the risks faced, particularly during the pandemic, within a male-centric culture.

El trabajo a través de aplicaciones móviles surgió como una alternativa para muchos hombres brasileños durante la crisis económica y el aumento del desempleo. Sin embargo, estos trabajadores operan de manera informal, sin relación laboral, lo que genera precariedad laboral y falta de derechos laborales. Desde un abordaje teórico-reflexivo, este artículo analiza la intersección entre la salud ocupacional, la plataformización del trabajo y los desafíos específicos que enfrentan los hombres repartidores de aplicaciones, especialmente durante la pandemia de covid-19. Las categorías reflexivas se dividieron en dos secciones temáticas: "La inserción laboral a través de aplicaciones móviles en Brasil y el modelo de trabajo mediante algoritmos" y "hombres, salud y motocicletas: la salud ocupacional y el comportamiento masculino en el trabajo a través de aplicaciones de entrega". Se examina la expansión de este tipo de trabajo en el contexto socioeconómico brasileño, la falta de seguridad y protección laboral para estos trabajadores, así como los riesgos enfrentados, especialmente durante la pandemia, en el marco de una cultura masculina.

Linking undergraduates' future work self and employability: a moderated mediation model.

BACKGROUND: The career intentions of students play a crucial role in shaping the growth of the hospitality and tourism industry. Previous research underlines the significance of future work self in predicting outcomes related to one's career. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the precise ways, timing, and conditions under which the future work self of undergraduate students can enhance their employability. METHODS: This paper aims to address the existing research gap by employing career construction theory and self-determination theory to propose a moderated mediation model-i.e., career exploration serves as a mediator and job market knowledge functions as a moderator in the relationship between future work self and employability. We conducted two independent studies (i.e., an experimental study and a time-lagged field study) to test the proposed model. Specifically, in Study 1 we employed an experimental research design to recruit 61 students majoring in tourism management to participate. They were randomly assigned to two scenarios (future work self: high vs. low), and we manipulated different levels of future work self by means of scenario descriptions. In Study 2, we used the time-lagged research design to collect data via submitting questionnaires among 253 Chinese undergraduates who majored in hospitality and tourism at a university in the middle area of China. RESULTS: The results indicate a positive correlation between undergraduates' future work self and their employability. Furthermore, this relationship is mediated by a mediator of career exploration. It is important to note that this mediating relationship is also contingent upon the moderator variable of undergraduates' job market knowledge when considering the impact of career exploration on employability. CONCLUSION: The findings contribute to enriching the current understanding of the positive effects of future work self on undergraduates' desirable outcomes in employability.

Bridging gaps: Transforming dental public health training for modern job market demands.

OBJECTIVES: To create optimal oral and overall community health, dental public health (DPH) specialists must be competent and appropriately skilled to deal with contemporary and emergent public health issues. This study aims to evaluate the current job market demands related to the DPH profession and suggest contemporary skills and qualities that would enable DPH professionals to address emerging issues more effectively in their field. METHODS: A multimethod qualitative study was conducted involving two distinct groups: employers and potential employees. Interviews of stakeholders (employers) representing different job market domains, and a survey was administered to recent DPH residency graduates (employees). Qualitative analysis was applied to the data collected. RESULTS: Employers identified the following skills as crucial for future DPH employees: proficiency in care delivery systems, health informatics, clinical training, leadership, and professional and grant writing skills. Many employers assumed the presence of a clinical component in the residency program. DPH residency graduates emphasized that the most significant barrier to securing positions is the lack of clinical experience within the residency program. CONCLUSIONS: This research highlights skills currently valued by the DPH job market and proposes that DPH specialty training may consider revising its curriculum to include these skills. Implementing such updates would ensure that graduates are well equipped and competitive, thus significantly contributing to the broader objective of attaining optimal oral health and overall well-being of the community.

The authors describe practical strategies for radiology practice leaders to retain radiologists in the current challenging job market, while mitigating their burnout.

Private Equity and Radiology: Productive Partnership or Inherently Misaligned?

Private equity acquisition of medical groups and health care organizations is becoming increasingly important in medicine and is a trend that is likely to continue for the foreseeable future. Some question the ethical implications of private equity acquisitions, since the clear goal of such organizations is maximizing profitability, which may or may not be in the best interests of either the patient population or the provider group. This article will describe the role of private equity in the medical marketplace, with a focus on the role of private equity in radiology and interventional radiology specifically. Additionally, this article will explore this growing trend in the radiology marketplace and its anticipated effects upon patient care and professional satisfaction for radiologists.

Critical Thinking: Creating Job-Proof Skills for the Future of Work.

In this study, we explore the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the job market and argue for the growing importance of critical thinking skills in the face of job automation and changing work dynamics. Advancements in AI have the potential to disrupt various professions, including, for example, programming, legal work, and radiology. However, solely relying on AI systems can lead to errors and misjudgments, emphasizing the need for human oversight. The concept of "job-proof skills" is introduced, highlighting the importance of critical thinking, problem-solving, empathy, ethics, and other human attributes that machines cannot replicate with the same standards and agility. We maintain that critical thinking can be taught and learned through appropriate classroom instruction and transfer-focused approaches. The need for critical thinking skills is further reinforced by the influx of information and the spread of misinformation in the age of social media. Moreover, employers increasingly value critical thinking skills in their workforce, yet there exists a gap between the demand for these skills and the preparedness of college graduates. Critical thinking is not only essential for the future of work, but also for informed citizenship in an increasingly complex world. The potential impact of AI on job disruption, wages, and employment polarization is discussed, highlighting the correlation between jobs requiring critical thinking skills and their resistance to automation. We conclude by discussing collaborative efforts between universities and labor market organizations to adapt curricula and promote the development of critical thinking skills, drawing on examples from European initiatives. The need to prioritize critical thinking skills in education and address the evolving demands of the labor market is emphasized as a crucial step for navigating the future of work and opportunities for workers.

Does examining job market awareness among medical students provide insight into the specialty selection process?

BACKGROUND: The future composition of a country's physician workforce depends on medical students' choices of specialties. Students' familiarity with the job market (the healthcare system) they are about to enter and the influence job market conditions have on their choices has not been well explored. This study focuses on whether and how the healthcare system's employment landscape is taken into consideration by medical students and whether this facet adds information about the specialty selection process. METHODS: Fifth-year medical students completed a questionnaire querying their knowledge and perceptions of the national healthcare system, selection criteria for choosing a specialty and a post-residency work position. Data were analyzed with two-tailed Student's t-tests and multivariable regression analysis. RESULTS: The questionnaire was completed by 242 students (49% women). Forty per cent were interested in a specialty where it is 'easy to find work' and 64% in a specialty that 'provides job security'. Only 12% were attracted to specialties with empty positions due to a workforce shortage. A high salary was considered an important selection criterion by 45% of students, who were also not deterred by specialties with surplus workforce, especially, if accompanied by high salaries or controllable lifestyles. Only 17% thought it would be easy to find a residency in any hospital in the specialty they chose, reflecting the low rate (3%) of positive responses to the statement that 'there are sufficient residency positions in all specialties'. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated the utility of querying medical students about their market awareness when investigating the specialty selection process. Students' poor rating of selection criteria, such as specialties with ease in finding jobs because they are suffering workforce shortages and have empty positions, provide insights and concerns for healthcare leaders. It should aid them in approaching the challenge of attracting students to specialties with workforce shortfalls.KEY MESSAGESThis study demonstrated the feasibility and potential value of adding queries about market awareness when investigating the medical student specialty selection process.Medical students were more interested in a specialty that provides job security than one where it is easy to find work.It could be useful for the healthcare leadership and medical educators in all countries to learn what medical students know about their national healthcare system and whether they need to add more healthcare delivery and system subjects to their curricula.

The aim was to evaluate the professional trajectory of former undergraduate Dentistry students in Angola in terms of time since graduation. This is a cross-sectional observational study of quantitative nature carried out with former students from 06 higher education institutions, among which the first students graduated in 2006. A total of 285 dentists were invited to complete a semi-structured questionnaire to identify the socioeconomic, demographic, professional and academic profile of respondents from their training to their experience during the Covid-19 pandemic. Data obtained were submitted to descriptive analysis and associations with time since graduation were tested. Most former students are female (73.3%), aged 30-39 years (44.5%) who work in the public sector (30.1%). Less than 25% of them (20.6%) reported having attended at least one graduate program. The majority (92.5%) graduated in Luanda, the city where most participants (80.1%) live. For 80.1%, the average monthly income is up to 10 minimum wages (up to 321,810kz; 1kz = R$ 0,01188), considered regular or insufficient (77.4%). The covid-19 pandemic greatly or extremely impacted the professional life of 58.9% of respondents. Students who graduated up to 2016 were more involved in graduate programs (p<0.05) and reported having higher monthly income (p<0.05). It could be concluded that former Angolan Dentistry students are characterized by being mostly women who graduated in Luanda. The longer the time of professional training, the greater the academic degree and the greater the income satisfaction (AU).

Geographic Distribution of Brazilian Dentists: Motivation and Perception for Migration / Distribuição Geográfica dos Dentistas Brasileiros: Motivação e Percepção para a Migração

The Human Resources for Health (HRH) are considered as being crucial for the organization of the health systems and for the population health conditions; in this context, the purpose of this work is 1) to identify the current geographic distribution situation of Brazilian dentists, 2) to identify and analyze the perception and motivations of Brazilian dentists who migrated to the interior of the country. A case study approach was used and the data were collected from different sources (Federal Council of Dentistry, Health Graduation Indicators System, Geocapes, Brazilian National Institute of Geography and Statistics) using the mixed method, from the quantitative-qualitative exploratory sequential model, the qualitative phase was analyzed by using the "grounded theory" approach. The findings point out that the county has a great stock of dentists and that it significantly increased in recent years; however, it is poorly distributed over the territory, particularly when the differences between the interior and the capitals of the country are analyzed. The main category of the grounded theory was "The opportunities changing the ways to consolidate the professional"; the interviews point out that the dentists' place of birth and the opportunities over their professional career were crucial to determine the distribution of dentists throughout the Brazilian territory. It's concluded that Brazil has a dentistry workforce stock; however, it faces the results of the lack of HRH regulation policies which include dentistry. Such reality enhances the health gaps in some country regions and market saturation in major urban centers.(AU)

Os Recursos Humanos em Saúde (RHS) são considerados fundamentais para a organização dos sistemas de saúde e para as condições de saúde de uma população, nesse contexto o objetivo desse trabalho é 1) identificar a situação atual da distribuição geográfica de dentistas brasileiros 2) identificar e analisar a percepção e motivações de dentistas brasileiros que migraram para o interior do país. Foi utilizada a abordagem de estudo de caso e os dados foram coletados a partir de diferentes fontes (Conselho Federal de Odontologia, Sistema de Indicadores das Graduações em Saúde, Geocapes, Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística), utilizando o método misto, a partir do modelo exploratório sequencial quantitativo-qualitativo, a fase qualitativa foi analisada por meio da abordagem da "teoria fundamentada". Os achados apontam que o país apresenta um grande estoque de dentista, e que houve uma grande expansão nos últimos anos, no entanto este apresenta-se mal distribuídos pelo território, principalmente quando analisado as diferenças entre o interior e as capitais do país. A categoria central da teoria fundamentada foi "As oportunidades mudando os caminhos para consolidar o profissional", as entrevistas apontam que o local de nascimento dos dentistas e as oportunidades durante sua trajetória profissional foram decisivas para determinar a distribuição de dentistas no território brasileiro. Conclui-se, que o Brasil apresenta estoque de força de trabalho em odontologia, porém enfrenta os resultados da falta de políticas de regulação de RHS, que inclua a odontologia. Essa realidade acentua os vazios sanitários em algumas regiões do país e saturação do mercado nos grandes centros.(AU)

Perceptions of employers in South Africa on library and information science graduates' skills, knowledge and competencies on digital scholarship.

The Library and Information Science (LIS) profession is ever evolving partly as a result of the effects of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. For instance, new job requirements on digital scholarship have been noted across the LIS profession, especially in the academic and special research council libraries. Based on these changes, employers of LIS graduates expect that LIS graduates from LIS schools possess digital scholarship knowledge and skills as part of their exit attributes. This paper explores the perceptions of employers of LIS graduates on digital scholarship education. A construct from the Gap Service Quality Model was used as the conceptual framework of the study. The paper followed the interpretive philosophical perspective, through employing a qualitative approach to achieve the aim of the study. A multiple case study design using semi-structured interviews was conducted with directors of both academic and special research council libraries. Five directors were selected purposively as their libraries seemed to be on the forefront of digital scholarship initiatives. It was revealed that employers expected LIS qualifications to have content on digital scholarship. The study discovered that employers of digital scholarship librarians expected them to possess knowledge, skills, and competencies on digital scholarship-related activities. The other expectation was that graduates were supposed to be able to navigate digital scholarship activities at a basic level. Employers of digital scholarship librarians also expected graduates to be familiar with research data management and the ecosystem of digital publications. The survey also highlighted certain difficulties LIS employers had when hiring a LIS graduate. The study recommended that LIS schools should recurriculate to include content on digital scholarship. It was also recommended that LIS schools should have short courses on digital scholarship to cater for practising librarians. Librarians must be involved in lifelong learning in order to understand digital scholarship.

Refugees and access to employment in Brazil: implications for health and sociability / Refugiados y acceso al empleo en Brasil: implicaciones para la salud y la sociabilidad / Refugiados e o acesso ao emprego no Brasil: implicações na saúde e sociabilidade

ABSTRACT This is a reflective study with the objective of analyzing the possibilities of access to employment by refugees in the Brazilian territory, in view of the socio-legal conditions in Brazil, understanding the relationship between work and health. Refugees experience the penalty of restricted access to employment, which has a significant impact on their lives. By remaining disconnected from work, they are pushed to the margins of society. In addition to this, they face difficulties in accessing adequate housing, healthcare services, education, healthy food, among others, all of which deeply affect their way of life in a foreign country with a different culture. The work becomes relevant in the discussion about access to health, goods and services necessary to live with dignity, and its implications in the work-health-disease relationship. Collaborative actions at a global level are necessary to ensure that employment opportunities are available for refugees. In this regard, this reflection articulates two basic ideas: the recognition of the importance of work in social life and living conditions, and the understanding that the determination of the health-disease process goes beyond the biological and individual choices, having historicity and a social and cultural character.

RESUMEN Se trata de un estudio reflexivo con el objetivo de analizar las posibilidades de acceso al empleo por refugiados en el territorio brasileño, frente a las condiciones socio-jurídicas en Brasil, comprendiendo la relación entre trabajo y salud. Los refugiados experimentan la penalización del acceso al empleo como el mayor impacto en sus vidas, ya que al mantenerse alejados del trabajo, se les coloca en los márgenes de la sociedad. A esto se suman las dificultades para acceder a una vivienda adecuada, servicios de salud, educación, alimentación saludable, entre otros, con profundas implicaciones en la forma de vida en un país y cultura diferentes. El trabajo adquiere relevancia en la discusión sobre el acceso a la salud, los bienes y servicios necesarios para vivir con dignidad y sus repercusiones en la relación trabajo-salud-enfermedad, requiriendo acciones colaborativas a nivel global para asegurar que haya empleo disponible para los refugiados. En ese sentido, esta reflexión articula dos ideas básicas: el reconocimiento de la importancia del trabajo en la vida social y en las condiciones de vida, y la comprensión de que la determinación del proceso salud-enfermedad va más allá de las elecciones biológicas e individuales, teniendo una historicidad y carácter social y cultural

RESUMO Trata-se de estudo reflexivo com o objetivo de analisar as possibilidades de acesso ao emprego por refugiados no território brasileiro, frente às condições sociojurídicas do Brasil, compreendendo as relações entre trabalho e saúde. Os refugiados vivenciam a penalização de acesso ao emprego com maior impacto em sua vida, pois ao manterem-se afastados do trabalho, são colocados à margem da sociedade. Somam-se a isto as dificuldades de acesso a moradias adequadas, aos serviços de saúde, educação, alimentação saudável, dentre outros, com implicações profundas no modo de viver em um país distinto do seu e de sua cultura. O trabalho adquire relevância na discussão sobre o acesso à saúde, bens e serviços necessários para viver com dignidade e suas repercussões na relação trabalho-saúde-doença, sendo necessárias ações colaborativas em nível global para garantir que o emprego esteja disponível para refugiados. Neste sentido, a presente reflexão articula duas ideias básicas: reconhecimento da importância do trabalho na vida social e nas condições de vida; e que a determinação do processo saúde-doença ultrapassa o biológico e as escolhas individuais, tendo uma historicidade e caráter social e cultural.

Trajetórias juvenis em um campo de contradições: precarização do trabalho e violações de direitos no futebol masculino profissional / Youth trajectories in a field of contradictions: precariousness of work and violations of rights in Professional Male Football

O presente artigo busca analisar como vem se constituindo a exploração do trabalho juvenil no futebol e o seu impacto nas trajetórias, modos e condições de vida dos jovens. O estudo teve a intenção de identificar como vem se desenvolvendo o mercado da bola em tempos da financeirização do capital, ao analisar como se configura o trabalho da juventude no que diz respeito à inserção no referido mercado. Frente a isso, tratou de verificar como o sistema de garantia de direitos atua na proteção social de adolescentes e jovens diante desse contexto. Tem como base uma investigação fundamentada no materialismo histórico-dialético, se constituindo como uma pesquisa qualitativa, de natureza exploratória e descritiva, por meio de um estudo de campo e revisão bibliográfica junto à Biblioteca Digital de Teses e Dissertações e Artigos do Portal de Periódicos da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES), incluindo materiais que tivessem relação com o tema das trajetórias juvenis no mercado de trabalho do futebol de alto rendimento. Em relação à pesquisa de campo, foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com jogadores de futebol, ex-jogadores e trabalhadores de comissões técnicas das categorias de base de clubes; com o objetivo de analisar questões que envolvem a exploração do trabalho, as trajetórias, modos e condições de vida a partir da inserção no mercado do futebol. Os resultados apontam para as diversas contradições que constituem a trajetória juvenil, marcadamente fetichizada, pois o mercado de trabalho no futebol para os jovens no caminho da profissionalização se manifesta por processos de precarização e violações de direitos. Os achados da pesquisa apontam para a necessidade de romper com os fetiches do mercado da bola, que estão entranhados no imaginário social, pois a realidade, para a maioria dos jogadores de futebol, é marcada pela descartabilidade, pelos baixos salários, pela flexibilização nas relações de trabalho e pelas estruturas de trabalho precarizadas, entre outras questões invisíveis para grande parte da sociedade. Essa aparência, muitas vezes, naturaliza, esconde e oculta processos de violação de direitos que os jovens no caminho da profissionalização do futebol podem vivenciar

The investigation aimed to analyze how the exploitation of youth work in football has been constituted and its impact on the trajectories, ways and conditions of life of young people. The study aimed to identify how the ball market has been developing in times of financialization of capital, by analyzing how youth work is configured with regard to insertion in the ball market. In view of this, to verify how the rights guarantee system acts in the social protection of adolescents and young people in this context. The research, based on a critical perspective that makes use of dialectical historical materialism as a method. It is characterized as a qualitative research, exploratory and descriptive. The study consisted of a bibliographic review research with selected studies in the Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations and articles from the CAPES Periodicals Portal that were related to the theme of youth trajectories in the high performance football job market. In relation to the field research, semi-structured interviews were carried out in the online modality, with eleven research participants, among them, soccer players, ex-players and workers of technical commissions of the basic categories of clubs that were available to carry out the research. Through it, we sought to analyze issues that involve the exploitation of work, the trajectories, ways and conditions of life from the insertion in the football market. As results point to the various contradictions that constitute the youth trajectory, markedly fetishized, as the job market in football for young people on the path of professionalization is manifested by processes of exclusion the research findings point to the need to break with the fetishes of the ball market, which are ingrained in the social imaginary, since the reality for most football players is marked by disposability, low wages, flexibility in work relationships, structures of bad work among other issues invisible to a large part of society. This appearance often naturalises, hides and hides processes of exclusion and violation of rights that young people on the path to professional football may experience

Pessoas com deficiência e ambiente de trabalho: uma revisão sistemática / People with disabilities and working environment: a systematic review

RESUMO Embora o acesso de pessoas com deficiência (PcD) ao trabalho venha se intensificando ante uma tendência global de humanização, a parcela desse segmento populacional formalmente empregada ainda está longe do esperado. Visando problematizar tal cenário, este artigo buscou compreender como as produções científicas têm discutido sobre PcD no contexto de trabalho brasileiro. Mediante revisão sistemática de literatura publicada de 2010 a 2021 nas bases de dados Web of Science, Spell e Periódicos Capes, dentre outros critérios, chegou-se a um corpus de 33 artigos para subsidiar as análises. Por fim, constatou-se que, apesar dos avanços normativos e culturais, persistem algumas barreiras urbanísticas, arquitetônicas, nos transportes, na comunicação e informação, atitudinais e tecnológicas, que desencadeiam dificuldades relacionadas à acessibilidade, ao preconceito e à discriminação. Tais obstáculos dificultam a inclusão das PcD no contexto laboral e demandam ações das organizações que, aliadas a atuações complementares das famílias dessas pessoas e do Estado, têm o potencial de viabilizar efetivas transformações sociais.

ABSTRACT Although the access of people with disabilities (PwD) to work is intensifying due to a global trend of humanization, the portion of this segment that is formally employed is still tiny. In order to problematize such a scenario, this article sought to understand how scientific productions have been discussing PwD in the Brazilian work context. From a systematic review of literature published from 2010 to 2021 in the Web of Science, Spell and CAPES Periodicals databases, among other criteria, a corpus of 33 articles was reached to support the analyses. Finally, it was found that, despite the normative and cultural advances, some urban, architectural, transport, communication and information, attitudinal and technological barriers persist, which trigger difficulties related to accessibility, prejudice and discrimination. Such obstacles make it impossible to include PwD in the work context and demand actions from organizations that, combined with complementary actions by the families of these people and the State, have the potential to enable effective social transformations.

Current state of career placement and employment opportunities for Doctor of Pharmacy graduates: A cross-sectional analysis from a college of pharmacy, Saudi Arabia.

Background: Traditionally, graduates from colleges of pharmacy in Saudi Arabia work mainly in hospital settings, and only a few graduates work in other practice settings. However, several initiatives and national plans have recently been introduced to facilitate employment in community pharmacies and the pharmaceutical industry/companies. Consequently, the objectives of this study were to explore the current state of career placement, type of employment sectors, and practice settings that Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) graduates join based on recent developments in the profession. Methods: This study is a cross-sectional, descriptive study. The target population was PharmD graduates from Unaizah College of Pharmacy, Qassim University, Saudi Arabia. Consequently, all 162 graduates from three recent cohorts (2018-2020) were contacted to participate in this survey. Results: A total of 157 graduates participated in this study, yielding a response rate of 96.91 %. Of the participants, 92 (58.6 %) were female graduates. The overall rate of employment was 84.7 %. Moreover, a higher proportion of male graduates than female graduates (97.1 % versus 73.7 %, P = 0.006) were employed. In this study, the three main sectors that the graduates joined were the pharmaceutical industry and companies (41.2 %), community pharmacies (29.4 %), and medical cities, hospitals and clinics (23.5 %). In addition, almost the same proportions of male and female graduates joined the pharmaceutical industry and companies (40.3 % versus 42.1 %). However, a higher proportion of male graduates than female graduates joined community pharmacies (32.3 % versus 26.3 %). Conversely, a higher proportion of female graduates joined medical cities, hospitals and clinics compared to male graduates (28.1 % versus 19.4 %). Conclusion: The current employment of PharmD graduates in the job market is generally high, but further improvement could be made, especially for female graduates. Moreover, the study findings showed that jobs are shifting toward community pharmacies and the pharmaceutical industry. Therefore, we believe that decision-makers in pharmacy education and curriculum developers must consider these trends and ensure that there is adequate preparation for careers in community pharmacy practice and other sectors of the profession in the curriculum.

Strategic job market-guided development of pharmacy bachelor's curriculum and its importance in maintaining the profession viability in the Middle Eastern countries: Colleges of pharmacy in the UAE as a model.

The Middle East has high youth population; however, it is challenged by uncertain economic situation. Higher education plays a crucial role in the development of nations by equipping generations with the knowledge and skill through cumulative curriculum development. Like other professions, pharmacy is a dynamic field of study where continuous improvements are required to keep the viability of the profession and endow future generations with up to date skills. This article describes a strategy for pharmacy curriculum development considering four layers. The strategy starts from the understanding of the current situation in a university, looking into national, international accreditations and job market. The strategy covers development from program to subject's level. The strategy is applied to pharmacy programs in the UAE. Upon analysis, several recommendations were obtained for curriculum improvements. At individual university level, there is a need to work on clinical oriented topics in the curriculum to fit with international accreditation and country's vision. Details on this can be taken form deeper analysis of job market and stakeholders in the UAE. On the national level, unifications of total credit hours for the degree across universities needs to be envisaged with limits on contact experiential hours. The strategy has the potential of extrapolating to other Middle Eastern countries.

Future orientation and perceived employability of chinese undergraduates: a moderated mediation model.

Although scholars and practitioners have highlighted the significance of students' attitudes for their future employment, few empirical examinations have attempted to determine the potential association between students' future orientation and their perceived employability. Thus, drawing on career construction theory, we test the positive effect of students' future orientation on their perceived employability by exploring the mediator of problem-based learning and the moderators of job market knowledge and proactive personality. Collecting our data via a time-lagged design (N = 368), we have found that the positive association between future orientation and employability is mediated by problem-based learning. Our moderation analyses further revealed that job market knowledge positively moderates the relationship between future orientation and problem-based learning and that students' proactive personality positively moderates the relationship between problem-based learning and perceived employability.
