Strathclyde Business School is hosting a free, public outreach day on Monday, November 23, providing an opportunity to find out more about the changing nature of work and employment.
Discussion at the Changing Employment Project Open Day will focus on the research findings of the Marie Curie Initial Training Network of doctoral and postdoctoral researchers.
The presentations are based on comparative research carried out by doctoral and post doctoral Marie Curie researchers working on the changing nature of employment in 7 EU countries (Belgium, Britain, France, Hungary, Poland, Spain and Sweden).
The research looks at a range of sectors including manufacturing, IT, the public sector, the care sector and the third sector using a range of perspectives, from institutional analysis based on work place change to biographical research methods exploring the activities of social networks and individual experiences of employment and migration.
Key areas of focus include:
The Open Day will present the findings in multimedia format, including poster presentations and short films screenings. Project coordinator Professor Paul Stewart of Human Resource Management and Claire Scott, Marie Curie ChangingEmployment international programme manager, will welcome participants.
