Book Technological Change in the Auto Industry

Download or read book Technological Change in the Auto Industry written by David Robertson and published by Willowdale, Ont. : CAW/TCA. This book was released on 1987 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today the auto industry is going through the most radical restructuring it has experienced since its birth. Included in this upheaval is a dramatic reorganization of the workplace, and technology has been both a catalyst and a central part of such change. The issues involved touch every facet of workplace life: job classifications and demarcation lines; seniority rules and transfer rights; teamwork and production standards; health and safety and the work environment; new skills and the content of retraining; the erosion of bargaining units and the degree of supervision; relations among workers and relations between workers, their unions, and management. The study reported in this paper by the Canadian Auto Workers union used a survey, case studies, and roundtables at seven auto industry plants in Canada to define what is happening in the workplace in terms of technological change. Extensive use of quotations from these sources is made throughout the report. The report is composed of six chapters that cover the following issues: (1) the new technology; (2) disappearing jobs; (3) transformation of work; (4) the new management agenda; (5) labor and technological change; and (6) policy implications for labor. Definitions of technical terms are provided. (KC)

This book was released on 1987 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report addresses a number of issues that have surfaced in the debates over the impact of technological change on employment. These issues include the effects of technological change on levels of employment and unemployment within the economy; on the displacement of workers in specific industries or sectors of the economy; on skill requirements; on the welfare of women, minorities, and labor force entrants in a technologically transformed economy; and on the organization of the firm and the workplace. It concludes that technological change will contribute significantly to growth in employment opportunities and wages, although workers in specific occupations and industries may have to move among jobs and careers.

Book Workers  Managers  and Technological Change

Download or read book Workers Managers and Technological Change written by Daniel B. Cornfield and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Workers, Managers, and Technological Change: Emerging Patterns of Labor Relations contributes significantly to an important subject. Technological change is one of the most powerful forces transforming the American industrial relations In fact, the synergistic relationships between technology and indus system. trial relations are so complex that they are not well or completely understood. We know that the impact of technology, while not independent of social forces, already has been profound: it has transformed occupations, creating new skills and destroying others; altered the power relationships between workers and managers; and changed the way workers learn and work. Tech nology also has made it possible to decentralize some economic activities out of large metropolitan areas and into small towns, rural areas, and other coun tries. Most important, information technology makes it possible for interna tional corporations to operate on a global basis. Indeed, some international corporations, especially those based in the United States, are losing their national identities, detaching the welfare of corporations from that of particu lar workers and communities. Internationalization, facilitated by information technology, has trans formed industrial relations systems. A major objective of the traditional American industrial relations system was to take labor out of competition.
