Description

The Quantified Self in Precarity examines how digital metrics and people analytics reshape modern work across gig economy and traditional office environments. Through empirical research, this Routledge sociology book reveals that workplace quantification often increases rather than reduces worker stress, anxiety and turnover. Moore explores the assumption that digitalisation inevitably improves conditions, demonstrating instead how metric-driven management rationalises labour and erodes job security. Essential reading for understanding the human cost of algorithmic management and data-driven workplace practices in contemporary precarious employment.

Key Features

Routledge Advances in Sociology series book addressing workplace quantification and digital management systems.

Empirical research-based analysis of how metrics and people analytics affect worker wellbeing and job security.

Examines both gig work and traditional office employment under data-driven quantification practices.

Demonstrates links between workplace quantification and documented increases in turnover, rationalisation and worker stress.

Critical exploration of whether digitalisation necessarily improves working conditions as commonly assumed.
