The new realities of work

This writing provides an overview of new ways of working transformed especially by technology, especially the production of increasingly sophisticated machines and the extension of the principles governing the office age and a wide range of service industries, accelerated by ICT and the digital revolution. For this, it is designed a path that starts from the initial studies of the sociology of work, going through neofordismo and post-Fordism, by the state work until the present day. Thus, it is discussed how such global trends, if considered on a world scale, will be the new focus of labor sociology, as managers strive to imagine and create a world in which production inefficiencies are diminished, emphasizing the ways in which they work which new technologies facilitate off shoring strategies to maintain profit margins based on flexible low-skilled jobs.
