Additional Book Details
‘Definitive, critical and engaging, this is a superb introduction to the sociology of work.’ Leo McCann

Expanded coverage of the rise and decline of trade unions; emotional labour, misbehaviour, and resistance at work.
Further discussion of the gig economy and precarious work; automation and the end of work; globalization and human rights.
For Sociology and Business students, taking modules in work, employment and society.
