The New Job Security
Fifty years ago, workers strove to move steadily up the ranks of one or two stable companies. Today'¬?s workers jump from company to company, building contacts, expanding skill sets, and increasing salaries at each one. Job security has taken on a new meaning, referring to security within your chosen career, rather than a single company. In THE NEW JOB SECURITY, executive career management consultant Pam Lassiter teaches early- to mid-career professionals how to navigate this new work environment by mastering five key skills: waiting for the right job, taking control, reciprocal marketing, career networking, and broad-based negotiating. If you'¬?re looking for ways to take control of a current job, or struggling to manage the transitional period between jobs, Lassiter'¬?s proven advice shows workers at all stages of their careers how to stay competitive and achieve their professional goals. Emphasizes strategies for lifelong career success, not just job-hunting tactics. Targeted to professionals operating on outdated career management principles, employees who realize they'¬?re at risk in current jobs, and workers in transition.

Encyclopedia of Quality of Life and Well-Being Research
The aim of this encyclopedia is to provide a comprehensive reference work on scientific and other scholarly research on the quality of life, including health-related quality of life research or also called patient-reported outcomes research. Since the 1960s two overlapping but fairly distinct research communities and traditions have developed concerning ideas about the quality of life, individually and collectively, one with a fairly narrow focus on health-related issues and one with a quite broad focus. In many ways, the central issues of these fields have roots extending to the observations and speculations of ancient philosophers, creating a continuous exploration by diverse explorers in ...
The New Job Security, Revised

Well, the rules have changed—companies downsize, jobs are outsourced, and pensions are eliminated as fast as the fluctuating economy.

Rethinking Job Security
This book critically examines the proper role of the law in protecting job security in the contemporary workplace. It provides a historical, theoretical, practical and comparative perspective on this under-researched, but fundamentally important, legal mechanism at a time when the pressure to deregulate and dilute worker-protective laws has taken on increased importance. The volume critically analyses both statute and case law from three advanced industrialised liberal democracies with a common law foundation, the UK, Australia and the USA, to understand the extent to which job security is realised.
