2024-03-01T17:22:00+00:00

It seeks to describe the phenomenon of "outsourcing" and employment in Chilean state universities, to guide their respective processes. The tenders for subcontracted activities (97 cases) are analyzed, being able to determine the percentage level assigned to the evaluation criteria in public tenders, especially the criterion "conditions of employment and remuneration", related to the working conditions of the workers of said subcontracted companies. A statistical-descriptive analysis was carried out, applying logistic regression, to find cause-effect variables; it was established that the variables "profit margin" and "accreditation" positively impact the factor "employment and working conditions"; On the other hand, the "size" factor, expressed as "enrollment", negatively affects said criterion, these three variables being significant.

2024-05-14T19:37:21+00:00

It seeks to describe the concept and processes of the Management of Scientific Journals, to unify theoretical criteria around the management of journals. Documentary analysis (systematic review of Web Of Science and Scopus databases) is carried out, extracting papers that refer to the term "journal management" in their content.

It is evidenced a high level of resilience of the employees, low level of work stress and a positive perception of telework.

2024-03-01T17:51:37+00:00

It seeks to comparatively analyze two cultural ecosystems: one of an organizational nature (commercial companies), the other institutional (Mexican public universities). The organizational culture is evaluated to determine key dimensions in both scenarios. The Denison model was used, which has allowed the generalization of results in several Latin American countries, as well as in various contexts, so it is pertinent to propose it to be implemented in this case under four cultural dimensions: (1) Consistency, (2) Participation, (3) Adaptability and (4) Mission. The research design is cross-sectional, with a quantitative methodological approach, using intentional non-probabilistic sampling by criteria. The results made it possible to identify bilateral meanings in all the proposed cultural dimensions, highlighting: "mission" and "participation". It was evidenced that there are bilateral meanings in all the cultural dimensions raised.
