Over the last few years, organizations have adopted a labour
management stance which puts more emphasis on non-standard forms of
labour contracts as compared with the traditional full-time
employment contract. Although temporary help agencies have become
emblematic of these structural changes in employment relations,
many questions about these intermediaries have been
unsatisfactorily addressed by suitable empirical evidence. This
book describes the rising incidence of agency employment, business
incentives to address these intermediaries and the labour market
intermediary function of temporary help agencies. In addition, it
provides both theoretical and empirical analyses on dynamic labour
market patterns of agency-intermediated work. Its purpose is to
gauge whether agency employment generates any measurable benefits
for the workers involved. The analysis should be especially useful
for human resource professionals, labour economists and policy
makers, since it helps us better understand the institutional role
of these labour market intermediaries as well as its consequences
for individual careers.
