The “Greening” of “Brown Field” Sites

Abstract

This paper seeks to explore the impact of new forms and organisation of work on a medium sized engineering company on Tyneside. It will involve an analysis of the way management have used the heterogeneous nature of the workforce in question to implement change. This change includes the introduction of TQM, JIT and HRM policies as well as fundamental change in the way the work is organised in the factory itself. This paper will seek to link these internal conditions with the impact of external factors. These will include a discussion of the product market, and the labour market at both local and regional level.
