Previous studies have shown that burnout is a factor that affects civil servants. As the employees’ well-being can influence the organization’s activities, the impact of the burnout on employees is a topical issue and is increasingly being analysed among scientists, but the effect of the burnout in organizing leisure activities is not widely researched, therefore the problem of this work is relevant and explorable. The impact of the burnout on leisure time employment could be more effective in organizing activities. Research methods – scientific literature data analysis, statistical analysis of data, structured interview. Aim of the analysis: to evaluate the impact of the burnout of employees on organized leisure time. Goals of the analysis. 1.

Abstract This paper deals with the influence of money on the quality of life, in the light of the major importance it has on all aspects of our lives. Bearing in mind that money is an everyday, inseperable and unavoidable companion, with all its advantages and power, as well as its numerous challenges, risks and temptations, it inevitably affects all segments of the quality of life. The relation between money and quality of life, therefore, can be viewed not only theoretically, but also at a practical level. In the times we live in, which have been labelled the digital age, with ever increasing change, the key questions which arise are whether and to what extent do people really manage their money, and to what extent does money manage people and their lives, do people own money or does money own people? Although it sounds paradoxical, money causes people financial worries, whether they have it or whether they do not and so can significantly influence their quality of life. Standard macro-economic indicators, traditionally used as measures of the well-being of society, do not always give a real and complete picture of the quality of life, as this encompasses the way of life, as well as the standard of living. The quality of life includes the whole spectrum of factors, not only economic, but also many others which lead to satisfaction, both material and spiritual. These can include financial and material living conditions, employment, health, education, leisure time and social activities, economic and physical safety, human rights and freedoms, protection of the environment and overall life satisfaction. This paper analyses the direct and indirect connections between effective and efficient money management and the aforementioned factors which are decisive in forming the quality of life.

RESUMEN La orientación comunitaria como proceso al servicio de la transformación socioeducativa constituye un campo teórico-práctico poco explorado; sin embargo, la necesidad de ofrecer asesoramiento para mejorar la calidad de vida, el bienestar integral y el desarrollo humano, la han posicionado como una alternativa para consolidar acciones efectivas de intervención enfocadas en el abordaje de los conflictos que cotidianamente emergen de las relaciones sociales y, a las que el docente debe atender para garantizar la convivencia social. En tal sentido, el presente ensayo constituye una revisión documental en la que se profundiza sobre el rol orientador del docente en el contexto comunitario, precisando las actividades, funciones y ámbitos de acción en los que debe operar para dinamizar la resolución de problemas comunes y el desenvolvimiento de los actores comunitarios, en la autogestión de sus necesidades y la construcción de condiciones que potencien la realización individual y colectiva; se concluye, que la participación del docente en su dimensión orientadora representa un modo para facilitar el cumplimiento de objetivos estratégicos, frente a los cuales solo es posible proceder mediante la unificación de esfuerzos, la integración sinérgica y el sentido de co-responsabilidad, requerimientos que por sus implicaciones dimensionan la vida social posibilitando la maximización de oportunidades de desarrollo integral para todos.ABSTRACT Community orientation as a process at the service of socio-educational transformation constitutes a theoretical-practical field little explored; however, the need to offer advice to improve the quality of life, integral well-being and human development, has positioned it as an alternative to consolidate effective intervention actions focused on tackling the conflicts that daily emerge from social relationships and that the counselors and teachers must attend to guarantee social coexistence. In this sense, the present essay constitutes a documentary review in which the counselor’s guiding role in the community context is deepened, specifying the activities, the functions and the areas of action in which it must operate to streamline the resolution of common problems and the development of community actors, in the self-management of their needs and the construction of conditions that enhance individual and collective fulfillment. It is concluded that the participation of the teachers in their guiding dimension represents a way to facilitate the fulfillment of strategic objectives, which can be only possible to proceed by unifying efforts, synergistic integration and a sense of co-responsibility, such requirements by their implications tend to dimension social life, making it possible to maximize opportunities for comprehensive development for all.

Sin embargo, en la actualidad se están descubriendo numerosos casos en la adolescencia. El diagnostico de EM en esta etapa afecta a todas las dimensiones de su desarrollo. Para evitar este impacto y lograr favorecer el desarrollo de la adolescencia de una manera ajustada, es necesario fomentar aquellas características personales del  sujeto que ayuden en la adaptación a la enfermedad y en la consecución de una calidad de vida óptima.

Objective: to explore the perception and experience of fathers of children with disabilities in caring for their children; to know their role and how these tasks impact their daily life, health and physical, mental and/or emotional well-being. Methodology: qualitative approach study with phenomenological design. The sample consisted of seven young fathers of underage children with various diagnoses. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews; the discourse analysis was carried out through open and axial coding processes. Three themes emerged from the results of the analysis: (1) shared responsibilities, (2) somewhat difficult to fit in, and (3) either you join or you split. Results: Fathers must readjust their work schedule, reduce their working hours, or give up their job altogether to take care of their children, as well as give up their social life. They lack time to enjoy their leisure time, to spend time with their partner, to take care of themselves. This involvement in caregiving generates an important occupational imbalance that has repercussions above all on their mental health. Conclusions: The sharing of caregiving tasks also impacts significantly on parents’ lives, it also takes away time and opportunities, and sometimes health and quality of life.

El barrio del “Vallet” es un barrio obrero fruto de la industrialización del municipio de Puçol, en los años 60, concretamente surge de las viviendas construidas para los trabajadores de la fábrica italiana de calentadores Cointra y que comenzó su declive durante la crisis económica española del año 2008 hasta cerrar sus puertas en el 2012. En la actualidad, en el barrio existen altas tasas de desempleo que provocan un aumento del nivel de pobreza, además, durante estos años ha habido un considerable aumento de la población inmigrante. Todo ello, ha influido en la decisión de Ajuntament de Puçol de implementar un proyecto denominado “Vallet, un barri responsable i solidari”, cofinanciado por el Fondo Social Europeo y la Consellería d´Igualtat i Polítiques Inclusives de la Generalitat Valenciana. La finalidad del proyecto es aumentar la inserción sociolaboral de la población desempleada del barrio, a través de la implementación de itinerarios sociolaborales con el objetivo de mejorar el bienestar social y la calidad de vida de la comunidad, realizar acciones de concienciación en materia de inmigración, contribuir al desarrollo personal, a través de la participación social e intentar disminuir las desigualdades sociales. En este estudio, a través de un trabajo etnográfico, analizamos el proyecto de intervención implementado en el año 2019 y 2020 durante la pandemia provocada por la COVID-19, cuando las personas en situación de vulnerabilidad han sido las más afectadas. The “Vallet” neighborhood is a working-class neighborhood as a result of the industrialization of the municipality of Puçol, in the 60s, specifically it arises from the houses built for the workers of the Italian heater factory Cointra and that began its decline during the Spanish economic crisis from 2008 until closing its doors in 2012. Currently, in the neighborhood there are high unemployment rates that cause an increase in the level of poverty, in addition, during these years there has been a considerable increase in the immigrant population. All of this has influenced the decision of the Puçol Town Council to implement a project called "Vallet, a responsible and supportive neighborhood", co-financed by the European Social Fund and the Consellería d'Igualtat i Polítiques Inclusives of the Generalitat Valenciana. The purpose of the project is to increase the socio-labor insertion of the unemployed population of the neighborhood, through the implementation of socio-labor itineraries with the aim of improving the social well-being and quality of life of the community, carry out awareness actions on immigration matters, contribute to personal development, through social participation and try to reduce social inequalities. In this study, through an ethnographic work, we analyze the intervention project implemented in 2019 and 2020, during the pandemic caused by COVID-19, where vulnerable people have been the most affected.

Con el objeto de conocer el bienestar y calidad de vida de estudiantes con implante coclear, se administró el cuestionario KINDLR,[1] que estima el bienestar y calidad de vida en actividades cotidianas a una muestra de 187 estudiantes con implante coclear y a otra muestra de 113 con audífonos. También se aplicó la versión correspondiente a 156 padres para comparar las opiniones de los niños con la de sus padres. Se aplicó un análisis multivariante de la varianza de una vía para determinar si había diferencias entre los grupos de estudiantes y sus padres en más de una variable dependiente continua (dimensiones del cuestionario KINDLR) y el índice Kappa y coeficiente de correlación intraclase para ver en qué medida existía concordancia entre los sujetos de las muestras evaluando la variabilidad de sus diferencias. Los estudiantes con implante coclear percibieron el bienestar y la calidad de vida de forma distinta a los que usaban audífonos. Existió acuerdo entre las opiniones de ambos grupos de estudiantes y las opiniones de sus padres en el bienestar y calidad de vida total. Se pueden utilizar los resultados de este estudio para crear estrategias de asesoramiento personal, familiar y escolar cara a la mejora en la calidad de vida y el bienestar personal y social de los niños con dificultades auditivas.ABSTRACTIn order to know the well-being and quality of life (WQoL) of students with cochlear implants (CI) and hearing aids (HA), the KINDLR questionnaire was administered to a sample of 187 CI students and to another sample of 113 students with HA. A modified KINDLR questionnaire was also applied to 156 parents to compare their opinions with those of their children. A one-way multivariate analysis of variance was applied to determine if there were differences between the independent groups (students and their parents) in more than one continuous dependent variable (KINDLR dimensions). In addition, a Kappa index and an intraclass correlation coefficient examined whether there was agreement between the students and their parents by means of assessing variability for WQoL improvement. Students with CI perceived WQoL differently compared to students using HA. There was an agreement between the opinions of both groups of students and the opinions of their parents on the total WQoL. The results of this study can be used to create personal, family and school counseling strategies to improve WQoL of students with hearing difficulties.[1] Se denomina cuestionario KINDLR a la herramienta evaluativa alemana creada por Ravens-Sieber y Bullinger (1998) empleada en español para medir el bienestar y calidad de vida de estudiantes (Kiddy-KINDLR para niños de 4 a 7 años, Kid-KINDLR para niños de 8-11 años,  Kiddo-KINDLR para niños de 12-16 años) y la versión adaptada del cuestionario Kid- & Kiddo-KINDLRpara padres.
