The new workplace: change at work in Ireland

Article Abstract:

It is possible to question the assertion that workplace transformation has become widely established in Ireland. In fact, it appears that work reorganization is well advanced only in a small number of workplaces. Some form of change has taken place in many Irish companies, but it is wrong to claim that Ireland is equal to, or ahead of, other countries. There are many workplaces in which experimentation with new types of work organization remains cautious.
