Configurations of Boundary Management Practices among Knowledge Workers
While the literature in relation to managing the work-nonwork boundary retains a strong focus on the consistent use of segmenting or integrating boundary management practices, recent studies indicate that individuals' behaviours are often inconsistent. To add to this emerging strand of research, this article is set in the context of flexible working to examine how knowledge workers use time, space and objects to demarcate the work-nonwork boundar…
The role of ICT s in the servitisation and degradation of IT professional work
Recently IT work has been subjected to management approaches that apply production methods to service work. Specialised information and communication technologies ( ICT s) used by IT professionals have played an important role in this ‘service turn’, but this has not been adequately explored in the literature. Via a qualitative study of IT professionals situated across the servitised IT functions of five UK ‐based organisations, this article cons…
The diverse patterns of work-related business travel: Accounting for spatial scale
In understanding workers’ work-related mobility patterns, it is more accurate to talk of mobilities, rather than mobility, as a heterogeneous range of different types and patterns of work-related travel are undertaken. It is suggested here that the spatial mobility of workers can involve undertaking quite different types of journeys on different spatial scales, and that the diverse spatial scales over which business travel occurs need to be taken…
Social support in the workplace between teleworkers, office‐based colleagues and supervisors
This paper draws upon the findings of qualitative interviews carried out with teleworkers, their office‐based colleagues and supervisory staff of a teleworking initiative introduced by a UK public sector local authority to explore workplace social support relationships. Our study found differences between office‐based and permanent teleworking staff in terms of social support. For teleworkers relationships at work are complex, with social support…
A very short, fairly interesting and reasonably cheap book about knowledge management
one of the most influential, amateur, arrogant and ignorant documents in the entire history of British broadcast policymaking.It was the Peacock Committee which influenced the Broadcasting Act of 1990 which Peter Kosminsky agrees (Guardian, 5 January 2016, p.29) changed the broadcasting world and ushered in the need to 'maximise profits and led to an almost immediate collapse in ITV programme standards'.Tunstall's book was published in 2015, yet …
The work-related affordances of business travel: A Disaggregated Analysis of Journey Stage and Mode of Transport
Sociological understanding of how business travellers make use of travel time is somewhat lacking. This article addresses this gap in knowledge via presenting an analysis of survey-based data collected from business people travelling by plane, train and car. Through disaggregating the data by travel mode, journey stage, technology use and task type the article provides a level of granular detail in the general patterns of business travellers' tra…

Driving, Communicating and Working: Understanding the Work-related Communication Behaviours of Business Travellers on Work-related Car Journeys
Despite an increasing number of workers requiring to travel extensively in carrying out their work, there are significant gaps in knowledge related to how business travellers make use of journey time. This paper addresses this gap in knowledge by examining the journey-time behaviours of business people travelling by car on work-related journeys. One of the central focuses of the paper is on the extent to which business travellers use mobile commu…
Mobility and Technology in the Workplace
Mobile phones can be categorized as personal technologies and, as with other devices of this genre, increased use leads to increased reliance upon the technology (Sørensen and Pica 2003). In addition, mobile phones create opportunities, or at least the illusion of being able to create opportunities to ‘make time’ through providing temporal freedoms for the user. For example, if a someone is driving, they can return work-related calls, therefore m…
The neglect of spatial mobility in contemporary studies of work: The case of telework
Whilst many teleworkers are increasingly working beyond home and office, these mobile teleworkers are neglected in the telework literature. This neglect is addressed through reviewing relevant literature, developing a conceptual locational framework that accounts for mobile teleworkers and the presentation of an illustrative example which links to the theme of work–life balance in the telework literature
