Description

This paper presents trends that are shaping the future work place so that environmental health managers can anticipate these changes, understand their impact and enhance their capacity for wiser decision-making. As we move from an industrial society to a post-industrial society in this high tech age, the workforce will include more women, more minorities, more service jobs, more training/ education alliances, more legal concerns and more strategies to control spending. Corporate cultures will place more emphasis on human capital as a strategic resource in this third-wave world, or world of information.
