| contents | Job attitudes, behaviours and well-being among different types of temporary workers in Europe and Israel Francisco J. Gracia José Ramos José María Peiró Amparo Caballer Beatriz Sora Applying an innovative typology based on preference for temporary employment and perceived employability, the authors empirically examine four types of temporary workers (and a group of permanent workers for comparison). In a sample of 1,300 employees from six countries, they find significant differences between the four types on a broad set of variables – including demographic and job characteristics, attitude and insecurity – but not in life satisfaction and well-being. They conclude with an argument against the equation of temporary employment with low-skilled workers unable to find a permanent job, stressing the valuable implications of more sensitive research for policy-making on flexicurity. 10.1111/j.1564-913X.2011.00115.x DOI https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1564-913X.2011.00115.x publication.journalArticle |
