Une Gestion des ressources humaines à l'interface des organisations : vers une GRH territoriale ?

La gestion des ressources humaines a, jusqu'à présent, été envisagée de manière à réguler le travail des personnes exerçant leur activité dans les organisations. Des pratiques de GRH s'observent cependant à l'interface de ces organisations : externalisation de services de gestion des ressources humaines, groupement d'employeurs, prêt de main d'oeuvre dans les pôles de compétitivité et projets de GPEC territoriale plus récemment. Ces pratiques sont pour la plupart anciennes et d'autres voient le jour sous des formes parfois innovantes. Avant toute chose, il est nécessaire de s'interroger sur ce que ces pratiques recouvrent exactement, car elles paraissent très hétérogènes. Dès lors, comment les appréhender ? Au sein de cet ensemble, quelle réalité existe derrière l'appellation de « GRH territoriale » ? Quels facteurs sont de nature à la favoriser, pour quels dispositifs ? La communication interpellera la gestion des ressources humaines inter-organisationnelles, en montrant comment le débat se cristallise autour de l'émergence de pratiques de GRH territoriales. Un état de l'art sur les différentes figures de la GRH inter-organisationnelles sera établi, afin de pouvoir les définir et les caractériser. Parmi ces pratiques, il sera choisi de concentrer notre intérêt sur la GRH territoriale et les différents facteurs empiriques et théoriques qui intensifient le débat et le surgissement de ces pratiques. Ces propos serons illustrés par la restitution d'une étude de terrain portant sur un cas concret de GRH territorial, le pôle de mobilité régional.GRH territoriale, pratiques de GRH inter organisationnelles, parcours professionnels, pôle de mobilité régional

L'émergence d'une instrumentation de GRH Territoriale : Le cas d'un pôle de compétitivité

Le développement des formes d'organisation en réseaux locaux – districts industriels, SPL, clusters, pôles de compétitivité – semble confirmer que la localisation des entreprises, dans un monde globalisé, reste centrale en termes de compétitivité. Ces situations de travail impliquent une co-activité de proximité : des salariés issus d'entreprises différentes, exercent leurs fonctions autour d'un même secteur d'activité et dans un proche périmètre. Invitant à envisager le territoire comme un levier d'action pertinent pour la GRH, les situations de co-activité de proximité ont ainsi vu se développer récemment des initiatives de GRH territoriales, donnant à la gestion des ressources humaines, une dimension élargie et collaborative. Si ces initiatives s'incarnent peu à peu dans des dispositifs concrets, il n'en reste pas moins qu'elles suscitent un certain nombre d'interrogations. Comment construire une GRH territoriale ? Comment la faire fonctionner ? Qui sont les acteurs pour l'organiser? Ces interrogations valent pour le cas des pôles de compétitivité, où des pratiques de GRH peuvent être organisées au niveau de l'ensemble du pôle, voire du territoire. La problématique est la suivante : comment construire une GRH territoriale au sein d'un pôle de compétitivité et qui peut l'organiser ? Une revue de littérature permettra de cerner au moins trois défis que la GRH devra relever au sein des situations de travail en co-activité de proximité : la gestion des situations de travail multi-employeurs, l'élargissement des parcours professionnels au-delà du périmètre de la firme, et la construction d'une compétence territoriale. L'un de ces défis sera particulièrement mis en lumière dans la suite de la communication. L'étude d'un processus de construction d'une gestion territoriale des compétences au sein d'un pôle de compétitivité sera présentée. Les premiers éléments d'interprétations seront restitués à l'aune du cadre d'analyse de l'instrumentation de gestion et de la sociologie de la traduction. Nous montrons qu'une initiative de GRH territoriale en construction repose avant tout sur des arguments et concepts forts. La construction de l'instrumentation de GRH territoriale inter-organisationnelle peut enfin s'analyser comme l'aboutissement d'une « traduction ».gestion territoriale des compétences;pôle de compétitivité; instrumentation de gestion;sociologie de la traduction.

Improved understanding of dynamic water and mass budgets of high‐alpine karst systems obtained from studying a well‐defined catchment area

Large areas of Europe, especially in the Alps, are covered by carbonate rocks and in many alpine regions, karst springs are important sources for drinking water supply. Because of their high variability and heterogeneity, the understanding of the hydrogeological functioning of karst aquifers is of particular importance for their protection and utilisation. Climate change and heavy rainfall events are major challenges in managing alpine karst aquifers which possess an enormous potential for future drinking water supply. In this study, we present research from a high‐alpine karst system in the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve Großes Walsertal in Austria, which has a clearly defined catchment and is drained by only one spring system. Results show that (a) the investigated system is a highly dynamic karst aquifer with distinct reactions to rainfall events in discharge and electrical conductivity; (b) the estimated transient atmospheric CO2 sink is about 270 t/a; (c) the calculated carbonate rock denudation rate is between 23 and 47 mm/1000a and (d) the rainfall‐discharge behaviour and the internal flow dynamics can be successfully simulated using the modelling package KarstMod. The modelling results indicate the relevance of matrix storage in determining the discharge behaviour of the spring, particularly during low‐flow periods. This research and the consequent results can contribute and initiate a better understanding and management of alpine karst aquifers considering climate change with more heavy rainfall events and also longer dry periods.The investigated karst system contributes to the transient atmospheric CO2 sink with about 270 t/a.

INFN What Next: Ultra-relativistic Heavy-Ion Collisions

This document was prepared by the community that is active in Italy, within INFN (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare), in the field of ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The experimental study of the phase diagram of strongly-interacting matter and of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) deconfined state will proceed, in the next 10-15 years, along two directions: the high-energy regime at RHIC and at the LHC, and the low-energy regime at FAIR, NICA, SPS and RHIC. The Italian community is strongly involved in the present and future programme of the ALICE experiment, the upgrade of which will open, in the 2020s, a new phase of high-precision characterisation of the QGP properties at the LHC. As a complement of this main activity, there is a growing interest in a possible future experiment at the SPS, which would target the search for the onset of deconfinement using dimuon measurements. On a longer timescale, the community looks with interest at the ongoing studies and discussions on a possible fixed-target programme using the LHC ion beams and on the Future Circular Collider.Comment: 99 pages, 56 figure

Meta-Analysis of Genome-Wide Association Studies in Celiac Disease and Rheumatoid Arthritis Identifies Fourteen Non-HLA Shared Loci

Epidemiology and candidate gene studies indicate a shared genetic basis for celiac disease (CD) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the extent of this sharing has not been systematically explored. Previous studies demonstrate that 6 of the established non-HLA CD and RA risk loci (out of 26 loci for each disease) are shared between both diseases. We hypothesized that there are additional shared risk alleles and that combining genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from each disease would increase power to identify these shared risk alleles. We performed a meta-analysis of two published GWAS on CD (4,533 cases and 10,750 controls) and RA (5,539 cases and 17,231 controls). After genotyping the top associated SNPs in 2,169 CD cases and 2,255 controls, and 2,845 RA cases and 4,944 controls, 8 additional SNPs demonstrated P<5×10−8 in a combined analysis of all 50,266 samples, including four SNPs that have not been previously confirmed in either disease: rs10892279 near the DDX6 gene (Pcombined = 1.2×10−12), rs864537 near CD247 (Pcombined = 2.2×10−11), rs2298428 near UBE2L3 (Pcombined = 2.5×10−10), and rs11203203 near UBASH3A (Pcombined = 1.1×10−8). We also confirmed that 4 gene loci previously established in either CD or RA are associated with the other autoimmune disease at combined P<5×10−8 (SH2B3, 8q24, STAT4, and TRAF1-C5). From the 14 shared gene loci, 7 SNPs showed a genome-wide significant effect on expression of one or more transcripts in the linkage disequilibrium (LD) block around the SNP. These associations implicate antigen presentation and T-cell activation as a shared mechanism of disease pathogenesis and underscore the utility of cross-disease meta-analysis for identification of genetic risk factors with pleiotropic effects between two clinically distinct diseases

Breast cancer "tailored follow-up" in Italian oncology units: a web-based survey

urpose: Breast cancer follow-up procedures after primary treatment are still a controversial issue. Aim of this study was to investigate, through a web-based survey, surveillance methodologies selected by Italian oncologists in everyday clinical practice. Methods: Referents of Italian medical oncology units were invited to participate to the study via e-mail through the SurveyMonkey website. Participants were asked how, in their institution, exams of disease staging and follow-up are planned in asymptomatic women and if surveillance continues beyond the 5th year. Results: Between February and May 2013, 125 out of 233 (53.6%) invited referents of Italian medical oncology units agreed to participate in the survey. Ninety-seven (77.6%) referents state that modalities of breast cancer follow-up are planned according to the risk of disease progression at diagnosis and only 12 (9.6%) oncology units apply the minimal follow-up procedures according to international guidelines. Minimal follow-up is never applied in high risk asymptomatic women. Ninety-eight (78.4%) oncology units continue follow-up in all patients beyond 5 years. Conclusions: Our survey shows that 90.4% of participating Italian oncology units declare they do not apply the minimal breast cancer follow-up procedures after primary treatment in asymptomatic women, as suggested by national and international guidelines. Interestingly, about 80.0% of interviewed referents performs the so called "tailored follow-up", high intensity for high risk, low intensity for low risk patients. There is an urgent need of randomized clinical trials able to determine the effectiveness of risk-based follow-up modalities, their ideal frequency and persistence in time

The worldwide NORM production and a fully automated gamma-ray spectrometer for their characterization

Materials containing radionuclides of natural origin, which is modified by human made processes and being subject to regulation because of their radioactivity are known as NORM. We present a brief review of the main categories of non-nuclear industries together with the levels of activity concentration in feed raw materials, products and waste, including mechanisms of radioisotope enrichments. The global management of NORM shows a high level of complexity, mainly due to different degrees of radioactivity enhancement and the huge amount of worldwide waste production. The future tendency of guidelines concerning environmental protection will require both a systematic monitoring based on the ever-increasing sampling and high performance of gamma ray spectroscopy. On the ground of these requirements a new low background fully automated high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometer MCA_Rad has been developed. The design of Pb and Cu shielding allowed to reach a background reduction of two order of magnitude with respect to laboratory radioactivity. A severe lowering of manpower cost is obtained through a fully automation system, which enables up to 24 samples to be measured without any human attendance. Two coupled HPGe detectors increase the detection efficiency, performing accurate measurements on sample volume (180 cc) with a reduction of sample transport cost of material. Details of the instrument calibration method are presented. MCA_Rad system can measure in less than one hour a typical NORM sample enriched in U and Th with some hundreds of Bq/kg, with an overall uncertainty less than 5%. Quality control of this method has been tested. Measurements of certified reference materials RGK-1, RGU-2 and RGTh-1 containing concentrations of K, U and Th comparable to NORM have been performed, resulting an overall relative discrepancy of 5% among central values within the reported uncertainty.Comment: 21 pages, 4 figures, 6 table
