Abstract

The job-for-life contract between employer and employee has been replaced by an insecure and uncertain job market. Job security is no longer dependent on length of service; loyalty to an employer and career progression in the conventional sense, that is, along fixed career lines, is not a realistic option anymore. These changes in the nature of jobs and career development are due to flatter and rapidly changing organisations, which will remain to be the dominant characteristic of most companies in the future.
