Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book provides information on the extent of different forms of atypical work and their growth in the 1970s and 1980s, mainly referring to Belgium, France, the Federal Republic of Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. It explores questions such as: What makes work precarious? What are the effects on the individuals concerned, in terms of incomes, careers, and psychological response? What are the indirect effects on the regular workforce of growth in precarious forms of employment? How do changes in the patterns of jobs and contractual arrangements derive from macro-economic conditions or from enterprise strategies? What is the role of the State as employer or legislator?
