Objectives: The core aim of this paper is to improve our knowledge base on the innovation process comparing how public and private organisations can develop abilities to innovate in order to cope with the challenges created by the changing priorities of the political market, the intensification of global competition and the higher speed of the technological changes. The authors intend to identify and compare the creative/learning capabilities of the workplaces in the EU-27 countries. Research Design & Methods: In testing empirically the various types of jobs our analysis uses the data sets of the fourth (2005), fifth (2010) and sixth (2015) waves of the European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS). The EWCS is a crosssectional survey taken in every five years since 1990, organised by the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions (Eurofound, Dublin). The recent editions of this survey cover more than 40,000 workers in the EU member states and in various other European countries (Eurofound, 2017). We used a cluster analysis in order to identify three clusters of jobs in Europe and their prevalence in different countries and country groups. Findings: The data from the European Working Condition Surveys (2005, 2010 and 2015) shows that in the public administration boosts creative workplaces in all countries. The ability of organisations to mobilise their internal resources into efficient and dynamic routines depends on intangible resources (e.g. creativity) and less on such traditional tangible factors such as physical or financial sources. Powering public sector innovation is inhibited by the following major factors: unfavourable institutional settings; weak innovation leadership; lack of systematic knowledge of the innovation process; and a shortage of the systematic data collection at both the EU and Member State levels. Implications & Recommendations: The increasing rate of creative jobs may speed up the implementation of the “High-Engagement Civil Services” to improve both efficiency and quality of work in the public sector. A more profound and evidence-based understanding of the innovation processes at the workplace level would allow us to exploit the full potential thereof in terms of positive impacts on both employment and job quality. Contribution & Value Added: Despite the fact that innovation studies have been at the heart of socio-economic research for decades now, relatively little attention has been paid on innovation in the public sector. This research topic has gained more importance only in the 2010s and thus there is often a lack of empirical evidence for this sector, which plays a crucial role in all developed economies as a major employer as well as the main actor shaping the regulatory environment. This article is among the first attempts aimed at giving insights into the job characteristics of public sector organisations.

The problem of positive and disputable consequences of connecting science and education with labour market within new Polish reality has been analyzed. The dominant determinants of contemporary civilization development namely science, education and labour have been stressed. Tasks of pedagogical sciences have been outlined among which are accumulation of knowledge on the educational reality, a reliable description in form of reporting, determining how educational processes should proceed, summarizing the collected results of observation, detection of relationships and interdependencies between educational phenomena and formulating conclusions in the form of general statements, presenting appropriate courses of educational processes, providing knowledge necessary for transforming the educational reality. The theoretical analysis of the literature references and documental sources gave grounds to state that it is high time for carrying out a far reaching reconstruction of science exercised in vast structures of higher education, education, often implemented “by force”, for the social and political applause, without sufficient concern about the effects and the quality of education, including the context of the possibility of full employment and natural strive for a career, almost pathologically functioning labour market, failing to solve and continually worsening and widening the difficulties increasingly experienced by employees.

Celem badań było poznanie warunków pracy, a w szczególności zagrożeń podczas prac wykonywanych przez personel pielęgniarski w stacjonarnych zakładach opieki długoterminowej. W badaniach wykorzystano anonimowe kwestionariusze, które zostały wypełnione przez 95 (84%) pielęgniarek pracujących w siedmiu placówkach opieki długoterminowej. Kwestionariusz zawierał pytania, które dotyczyły procesu pracy, warunków pracy, wyposażenia, obciążenia pracą, zagrożeń, ciężkości wykonywanej pracy oraz dolegliwości odczuwanych w trakcie realizacji świadczeń. W opinii pielęgniarek praca w opiece długoterminowej jest bardzo ciężka. Największymi zagrożeniami i uciążliwościami w ich pracy są: duże obciążenie fizyczne (prace związane z ręcznym podnoszeniem i przemieszczaniem pacjentów) i duże obciążenie psychiczne (związane ze stanem zdrowia pacjentów, agresją pacjentów, trudnością w porozumiewaniu się z nimi). Zebrane dane wskazują, że ponad 90% pielęgniarek w zakładach opieki długoterminowej zgłasza dolegliwości związane z wykonywaną pracą (ból kręgosłupa 97%, ból pleców 78%, ból kończyn górnych 77%, ból kończyn dolnych 66%, ból głowy 45%, ból mięśni 28%, pieczenie powiek 18%, swędzące zmiany skórne 17%, zawroty głowy 15%, ból brzucha 13%).

The aim of the study was to identify working conditions, of nursing staff in the stationary long-term care facilities with special reference to occupational hazards. An anonymous questionnaire was used as a major tool of this study, which was filled out by 95 (84%) of nurses working in 7 long-term care facilities. The questionnaire contained questions concerning the work process, working conditions, equipment, workload, hazards, work arduousness and work-related complaints. Long-term care nurses generally assessed their work as very hard. In the nurses’ opinion the greatest hazards and arduousness at their work are: demanding physical load (tasks related to manual lifting and moving around of patients); demanding mental load (related to patients’ health status, patients’ aggression, difficulty in communications with patients). The collected data indicate that more than 90% of the nurses in long-term care facilities report the work-related complaints (spine pain—97%, back pain—78%, arm pains—77%, leg pains—66%, headache—45%, muscular pain—28%, eye-lids burning—18%, itching dermal lesions—17%, dizziness—15%, abdominal pain—13%).
