Novas formas de organização do trabalho e autonomia no trabalho
O artigo discute a ambiguidade do termo novas formas de organização do trabalho, chamando atenção para a necessidade de distinguir entre a perspectiva centrada no factor humano e a perspectiva centrada na eficiência. Essa distinção é fundamental para compreender as diferenças entre elementos de novas formas de organização do trabalho aparentemente semelhantes, como por exemplo o trabalho em equipa. O artigo questiona a tese muito divulgada sobre a generalização do trabalho inteligente, flexível e autónomo e defende um ponto de vista segundo o qual o conteúdo do trabalho e o grau de autonomia são muito diferentes em função de diversos factores, tais como o tipo de divisão de trabalho entre empresas, as lógicas organizacionais seguidas pelas empresas, bem como as situações concretas de trabalho.
Palavras-chave organização do trabalho, inovação organizacional, autonomia no trabalho
Abstract
New forms of work organisation and autonomy at work
]]> The article discusses the ambiguity of the notion of new forms of work organisation, showing the necessity to distinguish between the human centred perspective and the efficiency centred perspective. This distinction is crucial to understand the differences between apparently similar elements of the new forms of work organisation, for example teamwork. The article questions the very diffused and influential thesis concerning the generalization of the intelligent, flexible and autonomous work. It is defended the point of view which considers that the work content and the degree of autonomy is different according to diverse factors, such as the type of division of labour between companies in the context of a global economy, the organisational logics followed by the companies, as well as the concrete work situations of workers.Key-words work organisation, organisational innovation, autonomy at work
Résumé
Nouvelles formes d’organisation du travail et autonomie dans le travail
L’article aborde l’ambiguïté des nouvelles formes d’organisation du travail, en attirant l’attention sur la nécessité d’établir une distinction entre la perspective centrée sur le facteur humain et la perspective centrée sur la performance. Cette distinction est fondamentale pour comprendre les différences entre les éléments de nouvelles formes d’organisation du travail, apparemment semblables, comme le travail en équipe, par exemple. L’article questionne la thèse très répandue sur la généralisation du travail intelligent, flexible et autonome et défend un point de vue selon lequel le contenu du travail et le degré d’autonomie sont très différents en fonction de divers facteurs, tels que le type de division du travail entre entreprises, les logiques organisationnelles suivies par les entreprises, ainsi que les situations concrètes de travail.
Mots-clés organisation du travail, innovation organisationnelle, autonomie dans le travail
