This volume examines the impact of wealth on quality of life and subjective well-being (SWB). As wealth is related to economic, environmental and social features of societies, this volume serves as an important resource in understanding economic and SWB. It further discusses a variety of experiences and consequences of inequalities of wealth. Through the availability of wealth data in recent international surveys, this volume explores the multiple relations between wealth and SWB. Structured around four main pillars the book presents analysis of the topic at various levels such as theoretical and conceptual, methodological and empirically, ending with a section on distribution and policies.

Paper design

Leggerezza, riciclabilità, economicità, transitorietà, naturalità, sostenibilità, progettualità, trasformazione, manualità, innovazione, temporaneità. Sono solo alcuni degli attributi utilizzati per descrivere carta, cartone e cartoncino, da sempre parte del nostro vivere quotidiano. Oggi anche le performance di questi prodotti sono cambiate, grazie ad una ricerca - aziendale e universitaria - capace di proporre, verificare, diffondere e sviluppare applicazioni innovative che raccontano, fra l’altro, la creatività del Paese. Interessato da anni al linguaggio e alle tecnologie d’uso dei materiali sia tradizionali che contemporanei, il Lab MD dell’Università di Ferrara ha promosso, in collaborazione con aziende o associazioni e consorzi di produzione, esplorazioni e sperimentazioni sui modi d’impiego consolidati dei materiali a base cellulosica, promuovendone evoluzioni e applicazioni inedite, innovative nella contemporaneità, dal packaging, all’arredamento, al design for children, al fashion design, all’allestimento e all’architettura.

Digitales Betriebliches Gesundheitsmanagement

Das Buch verknüpft das Betriebliche Gesundheitsmanagement mit der Digitalisierung von Gesundheitsthemen, was generell neue technische Möglichkeiten bietet. Die Gesundheit der Mitarbeiter ist insbesondere im bevorstehenden war-for-talents eine wichtige strategische Schlüsselressource geworden, die es zu fördern und zu schützen gilt. Beim Betrieblichen Gesundheitsmanagements(BGM) geht es um ein integriertes System zur Gesundheitsförderung, Gesundheitsschutz und Eingliederungsmanagement und die Koordination aller Maßnahmen. Heute ist auch die Digitalisierung im BGM angekommen, die verschiedene technische Möglichkeiten und Maßnahmen mit sich bringt. So gibt es bei der Gesundheitsförderung bspw. Gamification-Elemente in einem modernen Betrieb, bei denen die Mitarbeiter eher spielerisch miteinander oder gegeneinander im virtuellen Raum antreten und ganz nebenbei etwas für die Gesundheit tun. Alle aktuellen Entwicklungen werden in diesem Buch vorgestellt und diskutiert.
