The world of work is
changing at a rapid pace. Globalization, increased competition,
an aging workforce and the increase in flexible working are some
of the often cited examples. However, we also face new
challenges and opportunities with the growth of the Internet and
the massive uptake of social networking sites such as Facebook,
MySpace, Bebo and Friends Reunited. At the same time there is a
concern about the amount of personal information available on
the Internet and how employers and employees may use this. This
report from Manpower UK explores the current popularity of
social networking sites, their uses and their impact on the
world of work. |

The issue of health
and wellbeing is increasingly high profile, both in the
workplace and in society as this year sees the introduction of
new legislation banning smoking in the United Kingdom. On 1 July
2007, UK legislation will prohibit smoking in public places -
including the workplace - in England, following similar bans in
Scotland (26 March 2006), Wales (2 April 2007) and Northern
Ireland (1 May 2007). |
