The chapters of this work summarize the results of 35 years dedicated to studying how technologies change work & organizations. The first chapter places current developments in artificial intelligence into the historical context of previous technological revolutions by drawing on William Faunce's argument that the history of technology is one of progressive automation of the four components of any production system: energy, transformation, & transfer & control technologies. The second chapter lays out a role-based theory of how technologies occasion changes in organizations. The third chapter tackles the issue of how to conceptualize a more thorough approach to assessing how intelligent technologies, such as AI, can shape work & employment. The fourth chapter discusses what has been learned over the years about the fears that arise when one sets out to study technical work & technical workers.

"Faith. Hope. and Charity and the greatest of these is Charity. " "Hardware. Software. and Lil'ell'are and the greatest of these is . . . " As information technology ceased to be the prerogative of computer scientists and electronics engineers, those of us from other disciplines had to contend with the jargon which was already in vogue. We learned to live with "hardware" and "software. " We were less enthusiastic about "Iiveware. " Polite and some impolite questioning revealed that "Iiveware" was a euphemism for "people. " We were not amused. As one spirited participant observed, "I refused to go home and tell my children that Almighty God had made liveware in His own image and likeness. " People are too important to be known as anything but people. Moreover, it is the importance of people that is the dominating and recurring theme of this book by Christopher Baldry. He deals with virtually every aspect of the problems concerning men and women and their recourse to the equipment. This could well become the definitive work in the field. In addition to the details of health hazards, industrial relations, new technology agreements and the like, Dr. Baldry grapples with two great underpinning issues.

Technological change is a global process affecting many different aspects of work, the organisation, and life in the workplace. To facilitate the process of adjusting to such change, this paper proposes an assessment and intervention approach based on co-operation between the different players involved in the process of change. It uses a fictitious example, derived from several case studies, to illustrate how the proposed intervention strategies can be applied. This example helps to identify several elements that enable definition of a viewpoint on the issue of technological change within organisations. The paper then describes some of the methods that can be used to apply a global management approach for implementing technological change. It concludes with a look at why and how the authors promote a design, implementation, and management process that is based on the involvement of all those affected by the change, beginning with front-line users.

This report addresses a number of issues that have surfaced in the debates over the impact of technological change on employment. These issues include the effects of technological change on levels of employment and unemployment within the economy; on the displacement of workers in specific industries or sectors of the economy; on skill requirements; on the welfare of women, minorities, and labor force entrants in a technologically transformed economy; and on the organization of the firm and the workplace. It concludes that technological change will contribute significantly to growth in employment opportunities and wages, although workers in specific occupations and industries may have to move among jobs and careers. Recommends initiatives and options to assist workers in making such transitions. ISBN 0-309-03744-1 (pbk.).
