9780273028642: New Work Patterns: Putting Policy into Practice

Synopsis

Networking, job sharing, homeworking, sub-contracting, freelancing. These new words reflect the rapid changes taking place in modern patterns of employment. "Flexible" workers now account for between a third and a half of the total UK workforce. This book aimed at practising personnel and line managers in both the public and private sectors provides a practical guide to the effective use and management of this new workforce, it challenges many of the myths surrounding their use in organizations, and covers the implementation of policies to maximise the effective use of such staff. Contrary to current thinking on the subject, the authors contend that part-time, temporary and contract staff should and will be increasingly used in "core", firm-specific activites and they discuss the far reaching implications that this will have for every aspect of internal personnel and organizational structure. The authors provide managers with practical information on the problems and opportunities of implementing new work patterns. Aspects such as recruitment, pay, benefits, staff developments, industrial relations, disputes and termination of contracts are covered in detail.

Examples of current practice and legislation are included throughout the book.
