Infos

Modern workplaces are following a strong trend of increasing flexible working practices and approaches, offering more flexibility in working times, working places, work organization, and work relations as the result of new information and communication technologies. This book brings together a group of internationally recognized experts in the field of flexible work to examine the psychological and social implications of these practices, describing the current state of research and empirically-based practices in this field. It focuses on organizational, job, and individual factors related to the quality of working life, and identifies potential risk groups where the benefits of flexible work are suppressed or not realized.

Ideal for organizations implementing or considering implementing flexible work, for professionals and researchers in work and organizational psychology, and for HR professionals, this volume is an invaluable overview of rapidly changing work norms and their impact on working life.

Christian Korunka, PhD., holds a chair for Work and Organizational Psychology at the Faculty of Psychology, University of Vienna, Austria. He has conducted many empirical studies in the areas of new forms of work, flexible work, the role of ICT at work places, and quality of working life. His studies were published in more than 90 journal articles, about 100 book chapters and he was the editor of about 10 books.
