Description: "In The Quality of Work Graham Lowe argues that debates about the future of work have focused too narrowly on the quantity of jobs available: as important as job creation is, we also need to think seriously about the quality of the work we create. In fact, he says, an agenda centred on work quality is essential if we want to ensure Canada's continued viability, both economically and socially. Taking a fact-based look at employment trends and workplace changes - what we can do about them - Lowe suggests that high-quality work offers a common ground for employers with an eye on productivity and individuals seeking greater challenge and meaning in their work."--Jacket.
