Masa berlalu dengan rentak yang berbeza dan membentuk pelbagai implikasi dalam dunia pekerjaan. Perubahan demi perubahan telah mendesak manusia untuk melakukan penyesuaian dan pembaharuan terhadap kerja dan pekerjaan yang dilakukan. Persoalan ini adalah berkaitan struktur pekerjaan yang dihasilkan berdasarkan struktur ekonomi.
Analisis di Kanada pada tahun 1999 memberikan beberapa penjelasan berkaitan perubahan ini, antaranya seperti yang dijelaskan oleh Graham Lowe, Grant Schellenberg dan Katie Davidman (1999:2) bahawa:
"However, little is known about the diversity of employment relationships – the rights, obligations, expectations, values and rewards that define interactions in the labour market – that are embedded in these work structures, and how they have been evolving in the face of economic restructuring.
We argue that employment relationships are the building blocks of economic life, where social and economic public policy goals, ranging from productivity to the quality of life, either meet or clash. The public policy framework that supports employers and workers, such as EI, QPP/CPP, Worker’s Compensation, collective bargaining legislation, employment standards, etc., are based
on assumptions about the kinds of employment relations that characterize the labour market.
Fundamental changes in the ways these relationships are playing out hence have huge implications for the design of these programs. Changing dynamics in the social and economic ‘norms’ with which workers and employers engage in labour market transactions also have implications for the ways in which employers meet the challenges of recruitment and retention, loyalty and commitment, skill development, and staffing flexibility.
Unions are grappling with how to adapt collective bargaining and organizing strategies to new employment relationships such as outsourcing, temporary and contract work, and teleworking.
Workers and their families are concerned about economic security and job quality. Yet there has been little work to document the relationships that play out both between workers and employers and between workers in this new set of working arrangements that characterize the modern labour market landscape. CPRN’s Changing Employment Relationships (CER) project is intended to address this information gap."
