| Description: |
This book examines the impact of public sector reforms and reorganisations on the experiences of the UK public sector's six million workers and those employed in the private sector but providing public services. Chapters bring long-standing topics up-to-date, such as worker representation and reward. |
| Synopsis: |
The last three decades have witnessed the almost continual reform and re-organisation of the UK's public sector and public services, with yet more reforms underway. The impact of these reforms on the experiences of the public sector's six million workers and those employed in the private sector but providing public services are examined in this book. To that end, some of the UK's leading scholars in public sector employment relations critically appraise aspects of public sector employment practices and examine the key dynamics, policy developments, institutions and actors from a range of perspectives in three thematic sections. In so doing, some contributors bring long-standing topics up-to-date, such as worker representation and reward, while others introduce new topics, such as management consultants and assistants to professionals, but all provide challenging insights into the services on which so many rely and the effects on those working for the state. |
