Description

During the last two decades there has been widespread evidence of change in experience of employees, households and work organizations. Changing Forms of Employment looks at the underlying trends which generate pressures towards a fundamental reshaping of social institutions in three ways: changes in the organization of production, particularly those associated with the growth of service dominated economies; the effects of technological change, particularly those associated with Information Technology; the erosion of the 'male breadwinner' (or single earner) model of employment and household. These trends have resulted in strains and ruptures in the organization and regulation of employment and related institutions including trade unions, employers and households. The task of the next decade is to both reconstruct and to renew institutions.
