Abstract

Waar mensen samen zijn, duikt de liefde op. En dat is dus ook op de werkvloer. Elk bedrijf heeft zijn eigen Romeo en Julia, zijn eigen liefdesduo, al dan niet heimelijk verliefd op elkaar. Werk en intimiteit onverzoenbaar? Niet voor duizenden mensen voor wie de realiteit anders is. Passie in de kopieerkamer, seks tijdens de overuren, steelse blikken langs de collegas heen: in elke industriezone, in elke wolkenkrabber, in elk kantorenblok zijn ze dagelijkse kost.Dit boek belicht verschillende aspecten van romances op de werkvloer. Beschouwingen en bespiegelingen worden afgewisseld met flarden tekst uit getuigenissen. De auteurs geven tips aan werkgevers en collegas om hier netjes mee om te gaan en desnoods bij de wetgever aan te kloppen. Het boek is zo ook een gids voor wie betrokken raakt in een werkromance: de directeur, de personeelschef, de verliefde, de bedrogene of & de gedumpte.Bron : http://www.academiapress.be

Abstract

In the twentieth century, large companies employing many workers formed the bedrock of the U.S. economy. Today, on the list of big business's priorities, sustaining the employer-worker relationship ranks far below building a devoted customer base and delivering value to investors. As David Weil's groundbreaking analysis shows, large corporations have shed their role as direct employers of the people responsible for their products, in favor of outsourcing work to small companies that compete fiercely with one another. The result has been declining wages, eroding benefits, inadequate health and safety protections, and ever-widening income inequality. From the perspectives of CEOs and investors, fissuring--splitting off functions that were once managed internally--has been phenomenally successful. Despite giving up direct control to subcontractors and franchises, these large companies have figured out how to maintain the quality of brand-name products and services, without the cost of maintaining an expensive workforce. But from the perspective of workers, this strategy has meant stagnation in wages and benefits and a lower standard of living. Weil proposes ways to modernize regulatory policies so that employers can meet their obligations to workers while allowing companies to keep the beneficial aspects of this business strategy.

Abstract

"Guy Standing's immensely influential 2011 book introduced the Precariat as an emerging mass class, characterized by inequality and insecurity. Standing outlined the increasingly global nature of the Precariat as a social phenomenon, especially in the light of the social unrest characterized by the Occupy movements. He outlined the political risks they might pose, and at what might be done to diminish inequality and allow such workers to find a more stable labour identity. His concept and his conclusions have been widely taken up by thinkers from Noam Chomsky to Zygmunt Bauman, by political activists and by policy-makers. This new book takes the debate a stage further-looking in more detail at the kind of progressive politics that might form the vision of a Good Society in which such inequality, and the instability it produces is reduced. A Precariat Charter discusses how rights - political, civil, social and economic - have been denied to the Precariat, and at the importance of redefining our social contract around notions of associational freedom, agency and the commons. The ecological imperative is also discussed - something that was only hinted at in Standing's original book but has been widely discussed in relation to the Precariat by theorists and activists alike"--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Abstract

Vanuit arbeids- en organisatiepsychologie, arbeidssociologie, 'organizational behavior' en 'evidence based management' zijn diverse wetenschappelijk onderbouwde inzichten gegroeid, die zowel menselijk arbeidsgedrag als de effecten van HRM voor de organisatieprestaties inzichtelijk maken.Deze volledig geactualiseerde versie van het 'Handboek HRM, Competentiemanagement en Arbeidsrecht' is meer dan een verzameling 'best practices'. Het geeft een multidisciplinair inzicht in de actuele bevindingen van de personeelswetenschappen. De impact van diverse HRM-praktijken op het arbeidsgedrag en op de organisatieperformantie wordt toegelicht. Kortom:'evidence based HRM'. De rode draad is het sturen op competenties en talenten, die het arbeidsgedrag beïnvloeden binnen de sociale architectuur van een organisatie. Het geeft zowel academisch onderbouwde inzichten voor studenten in het hoger onderwijs, als voor de HRM-verantwoordelijken en eerstelijnsmanagers in de dagelijkse praktijk.Bron : http://www.acco.be

Abstract

"For every person who reads this text on the printed page, many more will read it on a computer screen or mobile device. It's a situation that we increasingly take for granted in our digital era, and while it is indicative of the novelty of twenty-first-century capitalism, it is also the key to understanding its driving force: the relentless impulse to commodify our lives in every aspect. Ursula Huws ties together disparate economic, cultural, and political phenomena of the last few decades to form a provocative narrative about the shape of the global capitalist economy at present. She examines the way that advanced information and communications technology has opened up new fields of capital accumulation: in culture and the arts, in the privatization of public services, and in the commodification of human sociality by way of mobile devices and social networking. These trends are in turn accompanied by the dramatic restructuring of work arrangements, opening the way for new contradictions and new forms of labor solidarity and struggle around the planet. Labor in the Global Digital Economy is a forceful critique of our dizzying contemporary moment, one that goes beyond notions of mere connectedness or free-flowing information to illuminate the entrenched mechanisms of exploitation and control at the core of capitalism.

Abstract

This book examines contemporary changes in labor market institutions in the United States, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, and the Netherlands, focusing on developments in industrial relations, vocational education and training, and labor market policy. It finds that there are in fact distinct varieties of liberalization associated with very different distributive outcomes. Most scholarship equates liberal capitalism with inequality and coordinated capitalism with higher levels of social solidarity. However, this study explains why the institutions of coordinated capitalism and egalitarian capitalism coincided and complemented one another in the 'Golden Era' of postwar development in the 1950s and 1960s, and why they no longer do so. Contrary to the conventional wisdom, this study reveals that the successful defense of the institutions traditionally associated with coordinated capitalism has often been a recipe for increased inequality due to declining coverage and dualization. Conversely, it argues that some forms of labor market liberalization are perfectly compatible with continued high levels of social solidarity and indeed may be necessary to sustain it.
