This study analyzes how employees in the aerospace industry in France understand and respond to their companies' discourse around flexibility in the workplace. The researcher conducted in-depth interviews with permanent employees and agency workers, as well as their spouses, to understand their perspectives. While companies promote flexibility as allowing employees to control their jobs and locations, the study found that individuals desire stability in their work arrangements. How flexibility is perceived depends on the nature of the employee's working relationship with the company. Overall, the discourse of flexibility seems to create tensions between individual attitudes and behaviors for the employees interviewed.

Recontextualization
This document discusses elements of postmodern art. It focuses on recontextualization, where an artist takes an everyday object and places it in an art context to change its meaning and create new thought about the object. Specifically, it references Duchamp's Fountain, where he took a urinal and submitted it as a sculpture, removing its functional purpose and making an intellectual statement through its new context and title.

“INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS” OF SHIV SHAKTHI TEXTILES,HYDERABAD,in INDIA
The document discusses industrial relations, providing definitions, perspectives, and factors that shape employment relationships. It covers:
1) Industrial relations encompass the complex web of relationships between employers, employees, unions, and the state. Conflicts of interest are natural due to bargaining power imbalances.
2) Scholars study how institutions like unions, laws, and power structures influence relationships. Pluralists see limited conflicts managed via voice mechanisms. Critics see deeper conflicts requiring structural reforms.
3) The study aims to assess relationships within an organization to promote congenial relations between employers and employees. It examines unions, democracy, and offers improvement suggestions.
INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS
The document provides an overview of industrial relations. It defines industrial relations as the relationships between employees and management in the workplace. It discusses how industrial relations involves a complex web of relationships between employees, unions, management, and the state. The document also examines different perspectives on industrial relations, including the pluralist view that sees both shared and conflicting interests, and the Marxist view that sees sharply antagonistic conflicts between employers and employees. It explores how industrial relations involves building knowledge through research, solving problems in the employment relationship, and addressing ethical issues like workers' rights.
Knowledge Transfer Within Multinational Enterprises
This document discusses knowledge transfer within multinational enterprises (MNEs) from an institutional theory perspective. It notes that most studies of MNE knowledge transfer focus on structural factors like isomorphic pressures but rarely consider the influence of social institutions or the role of human agency. The document calls for integrating institutional theory and organizational learning perspectives to examine how broader institutional arrangements and micro-level processes shape knowledge transfer and practice adoption within MNEs. It encourages papers that adopt contextual, practice-based views of learning and highlight how institutional influences interact with actor orientations.
Introduction and bios
This document summarizes presentations from a workshop on career development over the life course. It discusses how economic and social changes are transforming employment relationships, requiring more flexible career path management that addresses changing individual needs over time. It notes that building satisfactory career paths depends on developing resources throughout life. Transition phases between jobs, unemployment, and inactivity require support through public policies, businesses, and other organizations. The workshop seeks to address how to prevent increasing discrepancies in resources, offer sustainable careers and working conditions, and enable businesses to adapt while supporting employees.

Macro/Micro interactions : Economic and Institutional Uncertainties and Struc...Grupo de Economia Política IE-UFRJ
This document analyzes structural changes in the Brazilian industry from 1982-1997, a period of economic and institutional uncertainty. It explores how macroeconomic changes interacted with firm behaviors and industrial structure at the micro level. The analysis focuses on how firms adapted strategies in areas like sales, finance, production and investment to develop flexibility in responding to uncertainty. While uncertainties decreased after 1994, the analysis suggests firms developed in different ways and uncertainty still influences industry composition.Approaches to-ir-pdf
This document discusses different approaches to conceptualizing industrial relations. It begins by defining industrial relations and outlining its scope. It then summarizes John Dunlop's influential systems approach. Dunlop conceptualized an industrial relations system as having three main elements: actors (managers, workers, government agencies), contexts (technological, market, societal power structures) and an ideology that binds them. The contexts particularly shape the system, such as a industry's technology influencing management-labor relations. This systems approach was influential in establishing industrial relations as a discipline.

This document summarizes and analyzes an academic paper on employment relations theories and their application. It begins by discussing different definitions and understandings of "employment relations" between American and British literature. It then examines the legitimacy of managerial authority, tracing its historical shift from a status-based system to one based on contractual obligations. Finally, it introduces the concept of "frames of reference," which categorizes different viewpoints on the nature and governance of work into unitarist, pluralist, and Marxist perspectives. The document aims to provide managers with theoretical tools to evaluate workplace situations and policies objectively rather than based on assumptions.
A CRITICAL PERSPECTIVE TOWARDS AGENCY THEORY
This document provides an in-depth discussion and analysis of agency theory from a critical perspective. It begins by defining agency and describing how agency theory discusses the relationship between principals and agents. However, it notes that agency is not yet clearly defined as a theory and requires further development to be classified as such. The document then analyzes how agency theory has been applied in various fields like accounting and discusses some of the criticisms of agency theory, particularly that its concepts are not fully defined or empirically supported. It concludes by arguing that a critical perspective is needed to better understand agency theory and its real-world implications and impacts.

THE FUTURE OF EMPLOYER-EMPLOYEE RELATIONS: A TOUGH BALANCING ACT
This document discusses potential future scenarios for employer-employee relations in India over the next decade. It notes that while the current model emphasizes flexibility for employers and career management by employees, Indian culture highly values humane and collective aspects. Three possible scenarios are outlined: 1) continued individualism and high attrition as economics overrides culture, 2) rise of professional networks as employees' main affiliation, and 3) some enlightened companies prioritizing caring, loyal relationships to engage employees fully. Overall, the future will likely involve balancing economic and cultural factors between individual and collective orientations.
PROBING THE WORLD OF PPP INCENTIVES 1252016
This document provides an overview of the transaction cost economics (TCE) framework for analyzing public-private partnership (PPP) infrastructure projects. Some key points:
1) TCE represents the work of prominent economists and was developed by Oliver Williamson to better understand the organization of production compared to neoclassical economics. It focuses on contracts, transaction costs, and governance structures.
2) Applying TCE to PPPs, specialized or non-standard assets create complex incentives and "contract hazards" due to incomplete contracts and bilateral dependence between parties. Governance structures like long-term contracts and hierarchies arise to manage these issues.
3) For a successful PPP, credible commitments negotiated between public and private partners

This study primarily examined the relationship between collective bargaining and employee prosocial behaviour in the hospitality sector in Port Harcourt. The study adopted the cross sectional research survey design. Primary data was generated through structured questionnaire. The population of the study was 1674 employees of 11 selected hotels in Port Harcourt. The sample size was also drawn using the Krejcie and Morgan 1980 sample size determination table. The reliability of the instrument was achieved by the use of the Cronbach Alpha coefficient with all the items scoring above 0.70. The hypotheses were tested using the Spearman’s Rank Order Correlation Coefficient. The tests were carried out at a 0.05 significance level. The findings revealed that there is a significant relationship between collective bargaining and employee prosocial behaviour in the hospitality sector in Port Harcourt. Hence, the study concludes that collective bargaining positively enhances employee prosocial behaviour in the hospitality sector in Port Harcourt. Implying that when organizations in hospitality sector actively engage in joint consultation practices, such as open communication, collaboration, and employee involvement in decision making, there is a notable improvement in prosocial behaviors among employees. Therefore, the study recommends that there is a need to strengthen collective bargaining platforms which involves creating structured forums where both management and employees can engage in meaningful discussions. This could include regular town hall meetings, feedback sessions, and collaborative workshops. By fostering an environment of open communication, these platforms can serve as a foundation for building a positive relationship between stakeholders.

Potential market limit and accessibility of labour force tricked many MNC's, addressing the best brands of the world, to set up their workplaces in India, giving an extreme rivalry to their partners. To contend in this client driven market economy, ventures require adaptability in overseeing labour to address incidental upsurge or stoppage sought after. However, the age-old and unbending Indian work laws, which were sanctioned 8 forty years back, limiting right-measuring of labour, are making obstacles in smooth working of businesses. These components are tending ventures to recruit an ever-increasing number of quantities of agreement works to have more noteworthy adaptability to change the quantity of labour force dependent on monetary productivity, better usage of assets, advancement of benefit and bringing cost viability, notwithstanding the of hazard of lower labourer loyalties and horrible compensation.

This document discusses role modeling and career stages in the context of female and male IT managers. It covers several key points:
1) Role modeling contributes to identity construction as individuals emulate behaviors and attributes of those in similar social roles. Mid and late career stages are most relevant, as confidence and independence in self-concept increases.
2) During mid-career, individuals seek to refine their self-concept and select specific attributes from role models. Late career involves affirming one's self-concept by learning from both positive and negative role models.
3) The context of the working environment influences gender identity formation, particularly in male-dominated fields where tokenism and lack of female representation at senior levels can negatively
Akkermans et al. (2013) Competencies for the Contemporary Career
A new and promising area of research has recently emerged in the field of career
development: career competencies. The present article provides a framework of
career competencies that integrates several perspectives from the literature. The
framework distinguishes between reflective, communicative, and behavioral career
competencies. Six career competencies are discerned: reflection on motivation,
reflection on qualities, networking, self-profiling, work exploration, and career control.
Based on this framework, we developed the Career Competencies Questionnaire
(CCQ) and preliminarily validated it in two samples of young employees
between 16 and 30 years of age. The results provided initial support for the
content, factorial, discriminant, and incremental validity of the CCQ. We hope to
stimulate further discussion, research, and development of interventions in the area
of career development. Implications for theory and practice are also discussed.

- 1. THE CORPORATE DISCOURSE OF FLEXIBILITY FROM THE EMPLOYEE'S’ PERSPECTIVE A study based on permanent employees and agency workers, performing engineering related jobs within the Aerospace industry in France Author: Gabriela Whitehead Date: April 2010 Abstract Flexibility is a malleable concept that acquires its meaning depending on how it is understood and by whom. In this sense, organisational flexibility refers to the corporation's’ ability to adapt to the fluctuations of the market, provoking in turn reconfigurations of systems and relations that ultimately demand for employee flexibility. However, to the wage earners the idea of flexibility is presented through other discursive elements such as cosmopolitanism, portable careers and work-life balance. This study analyses how employees understand and respond to the corporate discourse of flexibility, particularly considering the perceived characteristics of their work arrangements, namely permanent employment and agency work. The research follows a qualitative approach for which in depth, unstructured interviews were conducted with the participants and their spouses; additionally, the study focuses on employees performing engineering related jobs within the Aerospace industry in France. The participants ability to self-manage their professional lives is expressed by their feelings of control over both job and location; however, the individual's desire for stability shows the extent to which the corporate discourse of flexibility actually colonizes the employees subjectivity. The way individuals perceive flexibility is framed by the nature of their working relationship, yet the responses are similar among all participants. Therefore, contradiction is found in the narratives as a display of the tensions between the individual's’ attitudes and their behaviours, where cynicism and impression management are used as defence mechanisms that simultaneously fulfil the employees desire for autonomy, and reinforce the prevailing discourses. Finally, the individuals view themselves as commodities in the marketplace, and the working relationships as trades of economic and socio-emotional rewards, consequently filling the participants’ lives with insecurities, while dividing the idea of future into episodes that are dependent on the success or failure of the work assignments.
