Partnership at work -- What is partnership -- The high performance workplace: fact or fiction? -- Gambling with employee voice in the finance sector -- Best value in a local authority -- Partnership on prescription in the NHS -- Goodbye blue sky: partnership in the UK aerospace sector -- Whither partnership?

'The realities of partnership at work' finds evidence of work intensification, increased stress and more job insecurity where partnership has been introduced in the workplace. This definitive study, written by leading authors in the field, suggests that partnership is a utopian Third Way project designed to suppress and deny workplace conflict. The concept of 'good' partnership, following the TUCs six principles of partnership, is probed and tested and found to fall short of employees' andunions' expectations. Government and employer efforts to use workplaceconsensus as a vehicle for productivity growth inevitably exacerbate the tensions between worker and employer interest, making prospects for mutual gains illusory. Research for this book was funded by the ESRC 'Future of Work' Programme, and it includes extensive surveys and interviews in organizations from finance, aerospace and the public sector. Fewsubjects could be judged more vital to current policy debates than theprospects for work and employment. The Future of Work series, edited by Professor Peter Nolan, Director of the ESRC Future of Work Programme,provides the much needed evidence and theoretical advances to enhance our understanding of the critical developments most likely to impact onpeople's working lives.
