Description
Comparing the digital transformations of work, business and society through international benchmarks has become increasingly popular to monitor performance, raise awareness of gaps and drive strategic policy change for different labour market actors.
However, established theoretical approaches do not tell the full story behind the varied digital performance between and within countries. Understanding how the future of work is evolving requires a more holistic analysis.
Drawing on examples from the UK, South Korea, Estonia and Australia, this symposium will outline a novel framework of digital futures at work, challenging and building on established practical and theoretical approaches.
The symposium
The Department of Management at Monash Business School and the Department of Management and Marketing at the University of Melbourne jointly host annual symposia in honour of the late Joe Isaac, AO, FASSA.
He held chairs at and was Emeritus Professor at Monash University and The University of Melbourne. He was one of Australia’s most distinguished scholars and practitioners in the broad fields of industrial relations/labour economics, and helped design this symposium.
