Description

The global landscape of employment is changing rapidly. As the number of workers employed on a temporary basis grows massively, understanding the economic and social impact of this shift becomes vital. This book from the Routledge Studies in the Modern World Economy series provides a serious analysis of the rise of temporary work and its widespread effect on the global economy. While firms benefit from the lower short term costs associated with temporary hiring, this shift creates significant challenges for the workforce. Workers in these roles often face different standards and are less likely to receive the same rights as their permanent colleagues. This text examines these ramifications in detail, offering a deep look at how temporary employment affects both the stability of the economy and the lives of individual workers. It is an essential resource for those studying international economics and the modern labor market.
