Abstract

Many structural changes have occurred in work and labor processes in the period after the Fordist era. These  transformations have also brought about changes in concepts like worker, employer, work, and labor process.  In this sense, work and labor processes have been made precarious. The transformations have been provided  as an alternative to routines that are alienating-to-worker and non-autonomous work forms that existed in  Taylorist and Fordist systems; and these transformations have tried to be reinforced in human resources  discourses through liberal ideologies. According to the neo-liberal paradigm, today’s society includes an  economic structure that is expanding the middle classes and shrinking the traditional blue-collar working  class. The increase in white-collar jobs is explained by the information society and the importance of  knowledge in labor markets. This research mentions new labor forms that include Taylorist features and  cooperate with various exploitive mechanisms rather than demonstrating liberal discourses.
