Staffing for the 90s

Synopsis
Highlights many of the key issues organisations will need to address in the 1990s, such as the introduction of the Single European Market in 1992 and changes in the labour market. Illustrates the lessons of attracting, training and retaining the best staff, stressing that the organisations which flourish will be those which can develop multi-functional, multi-national, multi-location management teams. Also considers new patterns of working that a tightening labour market may require, such as employing women and the over-40s, teleworking, networking, and part-time working in order to maintain a good supply of skills.
