Introduction to the Special Issue: Workers’ representation: challenges within and outside trade unions
What happens to workers' representation when established unions see their central role in giving voice to workers diminish? This Special Issue takes up this pressing question by examining workers' representation confronting established trade unions and the new forms of organizing emerging in its wake. In addressing this question, the Special Issue advances the integration of industrial relations and social movement studies by bridging the gap bet…
Competing for workers’ representation: Established and grassroots unions in the Italian logistics sector
Employment conditions for low-skilled workers are deteriorating across all European countries, leading to the emergence of grassroots unions alongside more established labour organisations. Despite the increasing union heterogeneity characterising corporativist Southern European countries in particular, inter-union relationships have never been emphasised in previous studies. Our article explores the evolving relational landscape of employee repr…
(Ri)conoscere il lavoro pubblico: Traiettorie occupazionali e sfide organizzative tra innovazione e persistenti contraddizioni
When school ‘stayed home’. A sociology of work approach on the remote work of teachers during the lockdown for the Covid-19 pandemic: The case of Italy
To contrast the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, ‘home-schooling’ was adopted in most countries and the issue was studied in considering the effects of the crisis on educational and digital inequalities, and on families and gender relations. Nevertheless, very few studies have looked at the working conditions of teachers in this very atypical framework. This paper presents results from a survey with the aim of investigating these conditions, following t…
Multiple jobholding in Europe: Features and effects of primary job quality
This article investigates the relationship between job quality features of the primary job and the propensity to engage in multiple paid activities. The analysis covers workers from 28 European countries using data from the EWCS (European Working Conditions Survey) 2010-2015. The results show that workers experiencing economic and job insecurity in their primary job are more likely to engage in additional paid employment. Multiple jobholders (MJH…
Il lavoro "da remoto" degli insegnanti. Riflessioni da un'indagine sulla didattica a distanza durante la pandemia
Il testo riporta i risultati di una survey sul lavoro da remoto degli insegnanti in Italia durante il confinamento per la pandemia di COVID-19. Viene evidenziato il ruolo essenziale del contesto, in particolare del modo in cui sono regolate le relazioni lavorative, del grado di coinvolgimento dei vari membri dell’organizzazione, del dialogo e della collaborazione interna, ma nondimeno delle dotazioni di competenze e tecnologie
Out of control: Changes in working-time patterns and strategies for work-life balance in Europe
Global restructuring processes mean that temporal models of working time are becoming increasingly differentiated across Europe, as elsewhere. In order to balance work and life, employees have to accommodate these changes, not necessarily by prolonging their working time, but through an accelerated pace of work and increased workloads. Intensified working time patterns increase the challenges of combining work and family. This paper argues that c…
