"Flexible" Workplace Practices: Evidence from a Nationally Representative Survey
基于1993年全国雇主培训调查数据,估计了六种替代性工作组织实践的采用程度,发现42%的机构采用了至少一种实践,大型机构中比例近70%,且采用与新技术引入、规模、制造业、激励薪酬等因素正相关。
The authors estimate the extent to which establishments have adopted six alternative work organization practices. Some 42% of all establishments responding to the 1993 Survey of Employer Provided Training used at least one of these practices, and among establishments with 50 or more employees the figure was nearly 70%. Establishment characteristics that were positively related to the use of the practices were the recent introduction of new technology, large size, manufacturing as the primary activity, incentive-based compensation, the provision of generous benefits, and the use of extensive training. The choice of practices varied greatly among establishments, with no apparent best practice.
