Creativity and emotions as drivers for social entrepreneurship
(Taylor & Francis, 2019) Erro Garcés, Amaya; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa
Social entrepreneurship is closely related to welfare because social welfare emerges when creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship are developed together, creating a 'cluster of value' that appears when several value chains are bundled together, resulting in increased employment. This paper presents three cases in which a main character drives a 'cluster of value': Father Arizmendiarrieta, Mr Huarte and Mr Pérez 'Peridis'. Findings show the relevance of emotions, the role of teams and experts that recognize innovations, the relevance of stakeholder wealth and the importance of linking day-to-day challenges to social entrepreneurship, because creativity is closely related to everyday concerns.

Food security and social protection in times of COVID-19
(SAGE, 2022) Erro Garcés, Amaya; López Peláez, Antonio; Pérez García, Raquel María; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa
From the perspective of social work, it is important to analyse food insecurity before and during the COVID-19, identify the best practices and how social work can contribute to improving living conditions. Using a meta-analysis, this article reviews how food security is addressed in the literature to better inform social policies from a social work perspective. A search of the literature revealed 217 articles between 2010 and 2021. The descriptors for the search were food security, food aid and social work. The main results are the identification of key aspects to inform social policies and promote sustainable social change worldwide.

Young people, social workers and social work education: the role of digital skills
(Routledge, 2020) López Peláez, Antonio; Erro Garcés, Amaya; Gómez Ciriano, Emilio José; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa
This paper addresses a key issue in the development of youth-focused social work: the role of digital skills in the relationship between young people and social workers who work with these native digital users. To this end, we analysed data from the International Digital Economy and Society Index 2019 and Eurostat. Information from the sixth European Working Conditions Survey and a survey conducted by the Social Care Institute for Excellence and the British Association of Social Workers supported the empirical analysis. The main findings reveal a gap between the level of digital skills required in the labour market and the actual level of digital skills in both young people and social workers, despite efforts by both groups to improve their skills. Initiatives to foster digital skills are therefore recommended to bridge this digital divide. Lastly, it was concluded that both groups could act as mutual drivers of digital transformation.

Social work, solidarity economy and decent work
(SAGE, 2023) López Peláez, Antonio; Erro Garcés, Amaya; Aramendia Muneta, María Elena; Ramírez Navarro, José Manuel; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa; Institute for Advanced Research in Business and Economics - INARBE
Eradicating poverty is a fundamental objective of social work, both at local and at global levels. After COVID-19, the United Nations Commission for Social Development and Sustainable Development Goals, the global agenda developed by the International Association of Schools of Social Work, the International Council on Social Welfare and the International Federation of Social Workers have placed the fight against poverty and the role of decent work at the forefront of the public agenda. We analyse most recent publications on decent work, highlighting two strategies to promote poverty eradication from social work: participation and education.

El sector de automoción en Navarra: análisis de la dependencia de la economía regional
(Gobierno de Navarra, Departamento de Economía y Hacienda, 2003) Erro Garcés, Amaya; Economía; Ekonomia
El objetivo del presente trabajo consiste en la obtención de medidas del grado de dependencia de la economía navarra; dependencia con respecto al sector de automoción, dependencia con respecto a los distintos ensambladores que figuran como clientes de las empresas ubicadas en Navarra o, en el caso de Volkswagen, disponen de una planta de ensamblaje en la región y, por último, dependencia con respecto a la planta de Volkswagen. La razón básica de este enfoque deriva de lo que ya se considera la mayor amenaza para la economía navarra en el medio plazo: el eventual traslado del ensamblaje de vehículos hacia los países de Europa del Este. El trabajo aplica la metodología de análisis de descomposición estructural (SDA) a las Tablas Input Output de la economía navarra. Este análisis se completa con información procedente de encuestas cualitativas realizadas al sector, a partir de las cuales se estima la dependencia de la economía navarra con respecto a la planta de Volkswagen en términos de empleo inducido.

Measuring job risks when hedonic wage models do not do the job
(Elsevier, 2025-01-10) Ferreira, Susana; Martínez de Morentin, Sara; Erro Garcés, Amaya; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa; Institute for Advanced Research in Business and Economics - INARBE; Economía; Ekonomia
The theory of compensating differentials predicts that wages should compensate for differences in job characteristics, including the risk of death on the job. Empirically estimating these compensating differentials in real-world labor markets has, however, proven difficult. This paper explores the potential of job satisfaction regressions as an additional valuation approach to estimate the tradeoffs between wages and job amenities along the wage-amenity frontier. In this approach, job satisfaction scores act as a proxy for utility at work, and can be used to directly estimate the tradeoffs between wages and amenities at the job taken by the worker. Conventional hedonic wage regressions with data on thirty-five thousand workers across thirty European countries show limited evidence that European workers facing larger job risks and other workplace disamenities receive higher wages. On the other hand, using the same data, workers who perceive their jobs to be riskier, are absent more days from work due to work accidents, or are exposed to worse conditions at their workplace are less satisfied with their jobs, ceteris paribus, revealing a negative valuation of those job disamenities.

Competencies in digitalization: an experiment in an international course
(Hindawi, 2021) Erro Garcés, Amaya; Hernández Palaceto, Celia; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa
This research aims to explore competencies in the digital global context through an international experiment conducted at the Veracruzana University in Mexico and the Public University of Navarre in Spain. In this paper, we report test scores of a course from both universities (N = 85). The course was grounded on Industry 4.0 and digital transformation. Students were required to work in international teams through virtual communication and coworking tools. The main findings show that digital competencies though necessary, do not seem sufficient. Additionally, the research identifies the most developed competencies (decision-making and cognitive development competencies) and the competencies that need to be strengthened (digital competencies). From a practical perspective, the international experiment facilitates a collaborative learning scenario.

Spanish fishing industry within the common fishery policy
(Elsevier, 2024) Kozinski Radomska, Aleksander; Aramendia Muneta, María Elena; Erro Garcés, Amaya; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa; Institute for Advanced Research in Business and Economics - INARBE
The main objective of this article is to study the evolution of the Spanish fishing industry, with a specific focus on examining the correlation between actual catches by Spanish vessels and recorded landings against national Total Allowable Catches, which may contribute to improving the current state of the Common Fisheries Policy. Firstly, we offer an overview of the geographical, economic, and legal factors surrounding Spanish fisheries, along with an examination of the Common Fisheries Policy and relevant international agreements impacting these fisheries. Subsequently, we analyze three species, namely hake, anchovy, and cod as they are the most traded fish in the Spanish markets. Thirdly, we conduct an examination to provide information regarding the role of Common Fishery Policy quotas and to explore potential reasons behind the observed results. The main findings reveal the identification of a significant lack of alignment between the Common Fishery Policy and its resulting implementation through the Total Allowable Catches over the last decade.

Co-designing doctoral programs to enhance postgraduate students' employability: insights from industry stakeholders
(Emerald, 2023) Pérez García, Raquel María; Erro Garcés, Amaya; Aramendia Muneta, María Elena; López Peláez, Antonio; Gestión de Empresas; Enpresen Kudeaketa
Purpose: Doctoral programs play a crucial role in promoting innovation and technology transfer in universities. To design these programs effectively and with a co-design perspective, it is essential to consider all stakeholders involved in the process, including teachers, students and employers. The main objective of this study is to enhance postgraduate programs to improve students' employability. Design/methodology/approach: This empirical study was conducted over a three-year period and employed semi-structured interviews as its primary research methodology. In the first phase, 21 in-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with managers from various sectors. The second phase involved 20 interviews, and the final phase of the study included 18 interviews with the same managers from previous phases. Findings: The study's main results revealed that the international networks, language proficiency and analytical skills of doctoral students were highly valued by employers. The main findings come from companies with doctoral students. Therefore, the skills were identified during the learning experience of the PhD graduates in the companies. Practical implications: The study's results can guide improvements in postgraduate program curricula and design to enhance students' employability. Originality/value: This research presents a novel approach to its findings. On the one hand, the study's conclusions may provide valuable insights for business agents, encouraging them to hire PhD students. On the other hand, it aims to drive necessary changes that promote more PhD students' focus on non-academic careers, creating significant value for research and innovation in the private sector.
