Description

Explore the changing landscape of modern employment with Work and Family in the New Economy. Part of the Research in the Sociology of Work series, this volume presents innovative research on how paid work intersects with personal and family life in the current era. As the global 24/7 economy expands, workers face new challenges. This book examines the impact of rising income inequality, the growth of nonstandard work, and the decline of unions. It also looks at how technological advancements create permeable boundaries between the workplace and the home, often leading to a sense of insecurity. Readers will find a detailed analysis of the different experiences within the workforce. While some individuals manage long hours with control over their schedules, many others face low compensation and struggle to balance their professional and private lives. This text provides a deep look into the social forces shaping the lives of workers today.
