Escaping the electronic birdcage: Workplace strategies in Swedish call centres; IndexOver the past ten years there has been a massive growth in call centres worldwide. These centres are said to represent the most dynamic growth area in white-collar employment internationally since the mid 1990s. Yet the footloose and global nature of the industry means that jobs will always be susceptible to outsourced operations, ICT developments, public sector subsidization of business restructuring and re-location, and cheaper operations elsewhere. This book conducts a thorough analysis of this modern phenomenon.Routledge Studies in Business Organizations and NetworksCall centersTelecommunicationworkemployeesmanagersagentsoperationsectoroffshoringresearchbusinessprocessCall centers.Telecommunication.381.142381/.142658.812Connell Juliaedt899674Burgess John(K.
