Download or read book Organizations and Working Time Standards written by Jens Thoemmes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collective bargaining between employers and trade unions has profoundly changed working conditions in companies around the globe. But why do we start work at the age of 10, 16, 18 or 24? Why do we work 6, 8, 10 or more hours a day? These questions are becoming increasingly pertinent as working norms are fractured and fragmented by country. This book brings an entirely new perspective to our understanding of changes in working time. In both the UK and the US, effective legal or collectively-bargained regulation of working time has been limited over the last 20 years, to the extent that its disappearance is seen as almost unproblematic. Here author Jens Thoemmes sheds light on this transition and its economic implications with a fully evidenced sociological account, based particularly on original research into cases of working time standards in France and Germany. This book addresses the whole process of working time regulation over the last twenty years, evaluating the activities of trade unions, employers, and the State. While theories of industrial relations have already addressed the issue of markets in the context of collective bargaining, this book draws connections between time and markets, places these transitions in their historical contexts, and illustrates the importance of this movement crossing borders and cultures.

Download or read book Time Autonomy and Work in France Germany and China written by Jens Thoemmes and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-08-26 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on case studies from France, Germany, and China, this book argues that the dynamic interactions between time and autonomy have fundamentally reshaped the evolution of work. Jens Thoemmes details how time autonomy transitioned from early efforts to reduce working hours to today’s complex debates about managing work time. Initially focused on reclaiming time from employers during the nineteenth century, time autonomy has broadened to encompass how work integrates into overall social time. Beginning in the late 1960s, new tools like flexitime, time-savings accounts, and telecommuting began aligning employee aspirations with production demands, marking a shift towards more flexible work arrangements. Placing work environments from France, Germany, and China in comparative perspective, this book explores the way time autonomy varies in different workplaces and socioeconomic contexts as well as the conditions, opportunities, and risks involved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage est consacré à l'approche dite de marketing critique qui propose un regard décalé sur les discours générés par le marketing et ses alliés tels la sociologie de la consommation, la psychologie du consommateur, etc. Son but est de mettre en lumière dans les discours marketing ce qui relève d'un biais idéologique et non d'une démarche scientifique. Cette approche critique est particulièrement appliquée à la nouvelle logique du marketing, la SDL (Service Dominant Logic) qui donne une place centrale au processus de co-création entre le fournisseur et le consommateur. Le lecteur trouvera dans Marketing critique une panoplie d'idées innovantes qui devrait nourrir une réflexion managériale sur les stratégies permettant aux intervenants de nos sociétés de trouver des solutions novatrices pour répondre à des demandes de services et à des besoins fondamentaux dont celui de l'accès à l'énergie.

Download or read book The Welfare State and Life Transitions written by Dominique Anxo and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Welfare State and Life Transitions uses the lens of key life stages to highlight changes in these transitions and in available resources for citizen support within nine European welfare states. This timely book reveals that new life courses are found to require more, and not less welfare support, but only Sweden has developed an active life course approach and only three more could be considered supportive, in at least some life stages. For the remainder, policies were at best limited or, in Italy.s case, passive. The contributors reveal that the neglect of changing needs is leading to greater reliance on the family and the labour market, just as these support structures are becoming more unpredictable and moreunequal. They argue that alongside these new class inequalities, new forms of intergenerational inequality are also emerging, particularly in pension provision.
