La condizione di disabilità è un fenomeno rilevante che determina una varietà di ricadute negative sulla vita di individui e famiglie. Partendo dalle evidenze emerse dalla letteratura scientifica nazionale e internazionale, la presente monografia analizza gli effetti della disabilità sulla condizione lavorativa e reddituale e evidenzia il ruolo svo...
This paper investigates how the presence of disabled member(s) affects the household risk of being socially excluded in Italy. By using a dynamic probit model with correlated random effects and accounting for endogenous initial conditions, we find that the presence of severely disabled member(s) increases the probability of being socially excluded...

The aim of this work is to implement a convergence analysis of social expenditure on disability and other social measures (e.g. families and children, disabled people, substances, old age, immigrants and nomadic people, poverty adult problems and homelessness, multineeds, total), taking into account spatial effects. To this purpose, we develop a tw...
The paper assesses the quality of work of people with and without disabilities in Italy using the ISFOL PLUS (Participation, Labour, Unemployment, Survey 2010 Questionnaire, where the data refer to 2009. In particular, we develop a multidimensional indicator of quality of work within the fuzzy set theory. The results of the investigation show a dif...
The aim of this paper is to study factors which may affect the incidence of civilian disability pensions in Italy from a macroeconomic point of view, taking into account all age groups, and introducing spatial effects by taking into account possible interaction among the policies of individual regions. The analysis is developed on a panel of the 20...
This paper investigates the effect of disability on labour force participation in Italy. Using information on limitations to daily activities, we apply a dynamic probit model accounting for state dependence and endogenous initial conditions to the longitudinal section of the 2004-2007 IT-SILC data. We find a significant and negative impact on curre...
The aim of this work is to analyze the situation of disabled people in the labor market in Mexico, taking into account socioeconomic variables and the spatial dimension. The results of our analysis provide guidelines for actions geared at improving the inclusion of disabled people in the labor market, and, as a consequence, in society. We apply clu...
The XXV Conference of AIEL (Associazione Italiana degli Economisti del Lavoro) was held in the Università d’Annunzio in Chieti-Pescara in September 2010. The theme chosen for the thematic session was “Social Exclusion”, in line with the choice made by the European Union to make 2010 the “European year to fight poverty and social exclusion”. The Eur...
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the special issue on “Disadvantaged workers in the labour market” and to draw some policy implications that are common to the studies included in the special issue.
Design/methodology/approach
The paper introduces several econometric methodologies adopted in the special issue. Such methodologies re...
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the determinants of the probability of low income for households with disabled members in Italy, over the period 2004‐2007, with special focus on the role of persistence.
Design/methodology/approach
Households with disabled members are compared with those without disabled members, and those with...
The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether civilian disability pensions have been used as an antipoverty measure in Italy. We applied a two-step analysis to Italian provincial data for the years 2003-2005. We implemented a classic panel analysis, followed by a two-step GMM (Generalised Method of Moments) analysis in which we introduced the...
The book provides a panoramic approach to social exclusion, with emphasis on structural causes (education, health, accidents) and on short term causes connected with the crisis which started in 2008. The picture emerging, based on econometric analysis, is that the crisis has widened the risk of social exclusion, from the structural groups, like dis...
This article studies the economic effects of disabled members on Italian households, with the aim of identifying a suitable target group for welfare policies. Survey of Households Income and Wealth data for the year 2000 is used. Preliminary results show significant differences in levels of income and poverty diffusion to the detriment of household...
The article investigates the determinants of the off-farm work decision in Italian farm households, highlighting the role of caring services. Assuming that the household simultaneously decides over the optimal allocation of time of each of its members, a multivariate probit model is used to estimate the off-farm participation equations and to contr...
Trade union concern for job security is modelled under asymmetric information about labour demand, with rigid wage. Sequential decision processes are discussed, for the individual, on whether to join the union (utility defined over consumption and leisure); for the union, about the contribution to charge (utility defined over level of membership an...
In this article we test whether in Italy the off-farm participation decisions of household members in working age are taken jointly and what are the variables that affect them. We find that the decisions of the operator, the spouse and the eldest child are not joint. Conversely, the participation decision of the operator and the spouse, that is of...
We draw on a complete data-base for the Italian automotive market which allows to identify make, model and version for all the vehicles sold, including the main technical characteristics for each version. The period considered is from January 1998 to March 2002. The main result is that the official inflation rate, measured on a sample, underestimat...
This letter extends Elgar and Simpson's (1994) analysis on the working of the Bridlington Principles to the analysis of the working of TUC voluntary policy with respect to mergers among affiliated unions over the period 1960-83. Univariate analysis is applied to microdata to investigate the effectiveness of voluntary policy on mergers with respect...
