SOCIAL VALUES AND TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE: The Shift Working Dilemma
Abstract
In this article the authors discuss how technological advances may be frustrated by the changing values of different organisational groups, and examine the impact of changing social values on an attempt to increase shift working. In particular, they consider the viewpoint of managers and manual shift workers. They conclude that any increase in shift working might, in the long run, be constrained by these changing social values.
