Book Description
Organizations and the nature of work have undergone fundamental changes in recent decades. At the same time, the traditional family pattern in Europe is being challenged by the growing number of dual-income families, and by the rise of women’s employment. The central aim of this book is to consider to what extent changes in organizations and in the nature of jobs are compatible with the need, increasingly expressed by employees, for greater integration between work and family life. The book questions what sort of dilemmas modern and future employees face, in terms of shaping their careers and organizing their lives at home. The authors formulate answers to these problematic questions by shedding light on relevant developments in the European labor markets, the European workplaces, in (flexible) working patterns, changing preferences for working hours and in gender relations at work. With a focus on future developments, this book will be of interest to labor market researchers and social policymakers in Europe, and also students in the social sciences, management (HRM) and social policy.
