The Cmr workshop directed by sociologist Marini analyses a revolution in the way employment is perceived, but public debates remain ideological and ignore it<\/p>\n
Metalworker chooses meritocracy
\nThe vast majority of workers identify with the company they feel “is theirs” they tend to share its objectives and also want to contribute to decisions<\/p>\n
75.6 per cent are willing to be flexible in terms of working hours and shifts, 77.8 per cent want to contribute to innovation
\nNot only do they accept that salaries may differ according to the worker's merits. Not only do they no longer barricade themselves in defence of the fixed job by law. Not only are they also willing to be flexible in both hours and wages. Now, at least in part, they are even willing to give their ideas to the entrepreneur and participate in financing innovative projects, and then be rewarded according to the results. In short, “post-ideological and characterised by a strong subjectivity: this is how they present themselves or workers in the Northeast” summarises sociologist Daniele Marini in the new survey carried out by the Cmr-Community media research laboratory, of which he is scientific director, on behalf of Federmeccanica.<\/p>\n
