abstract: 'Despite geographic, financial, and cultural diversity, publications
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dealing with the pharmacist workforce throughout the world share common
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
concerns and focus on similar topics. Their findings are presented in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the literature in a seemingly unrelated way even though they are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
connected to one another as parts of a comprehensive theoretical
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
structure. The purpose of this paper is to develop a theoretical model
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that relates some of the most salient topics addressed in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
international literature on pharmacist workforce. The model is developed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
along two fundamental ideas. The first identifies the shape and location
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of the pharmacist''s labor supply curve as the driving force behind all
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
workforce decisions undertaken by pharmacists; the second argues that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender and age differences are two of the most important factors
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
determining the shape and location of this supply curve. The paper then
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
discusses movements along the curve attributed to changes in the wage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rate, as well as displacements of the curve attributed to disparities in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
personal characteristics, investments in human capital, job-related
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
preferences, opinions and perceptions, and institutional rigidities. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
focus is on the individual pharmacist, not on groups of pharmacists or
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the profession as a whole. Works in multiple countries that address each
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
topic are identified. Understanding these considerations is critical as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employers'' failure to accommodate pharmacists'' preferences for work and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
leisure are associated with negative consequences not only for them but
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
also for the healthcare system as a whole. Possible consequences include
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
excessive job turnover, absenteeism, decreased institutional commitment,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and lower quality of work.'
