The 'country/region of origin is a traditionally used strategy by food companies in order to differenriate their production from each other. Is the origin an useful strategy? Does it lead to differentiate a company's offer? This paper aims to resolve these questions from a theoretical perspective. In addition, a descriptive analysis of Spanish Designation of Origin's ham sector is developed. Such sector comprises only six Designations, so an in-deep analysis of all aspects related to place of origin will be easier [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper shows Spanish companies' position on work-life balance, considering two industries: food & drinks and information technology. The offer of work-life benefits is not very extended, and its use by workers is still lower. The positive and negative consequences of the benefits and the existence of institutional pressures on employers to achieve work-life balance are also considered. The sector the organization is in is relevant, and IT companies are more involved with work-life balance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The analysis of the consumer's behavior is a wide-ranging and complex process. Here we show the new trends of the European consumer with a special focus on the changes in consumption models. The paper is based on the European Union's Research Project encompassing six countries (Project FAIR-CT 95-0046 about "Quality Policy and Consumer Behavior"), in relation to the growing relevance of product quality in the food industry, as well as the evolution of national regulations on this regard. The main goal was to review consumers' expectations in relation to food quality and the efforts of agencies and companies to improve performance in this area. The paper is focused on the analysis of beef consumption in Spain, both from the consumer's qualitative and the quantitative profiles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
