Abstract

The changing context of work – for example, through globalization, intensification of competition, deregulation, growth in employment flexibility, technological changes, digitalization, or the Covid-19 pandemic – increasingly triggers debates about the quality of working life. Grote and Guest (2017), for example, recently made a “case for reinvigorating quality of working life research“ and Warhurst and Knox (2020) just published a “Manifesto for a New Quality of Working Life”. These debates are evoked by concerns about the well-being of employees which seems to become more and more threatened through contemporary developments in work and society. For example, while changes in technology enable employees to better access information or to work more flexible, they can also lead, for instance, to increased demands through work intensification or work-home interference, loss of control, and higher job insecurity. Another example is the Covid-19 pandemic which changed the working situation of employees around the globe leading to increases in working hours, job insecurity and large inequalities between different groups of employees (e.g. Eurofound, 2020). © 2021.

《优秀作品:变化世界中的侵蚀与新标准
工作环境的变化——例如,全球化、竞争加剧、放松管制、就业灵活性增加、技术变革、数字化或2019冠状病毒病大流行——越来越多地引发了关于工作生活质量的辩论。例如,Grote和Guest(2017)最近提出了一个“重振工作生活质量研究的案例”,Warhurst和Knox(2020)刚刚发表了一份“新工作生活质量宣言”。这些争论是由对员工福利的关注引起的,这种福利似乎越来越受到当代工作和社会发展的威胁。例如,虽然技术的变化使员工能够更好地获取信息或更灵活地工作,但它们也可能导致,例如,通过工作强化或工作与家庭的干扰,失去控制和更高的工作不安全感而增加需求。另一个例子是Covid-19大流行,它改变了全球员工的工作状况,导致工作时间增加,工作不安全感和不同员工群体之间的巨大不平等(例如,Eurofound, 2020年)。©2021。管理节目。版权所有。
