Objective
The EMERGENCE project aims to provide reliable information both qualitative and quantitative, on delocalised telemediated work. An interdisciplinary team (plus associates in North America and Australasia) will carry out a statistical overview, develop analytical models, conduct an international survey and carry out a comparative case study to map, quantify and forecast the new international division of labour in information processing. It will make recommendations to official statistical bodies. It will dissemination information interactively, for use as a resource for research, benchmarking against global comparators, regional development, employment creation, equal opportunities and other policies.
Work description:
The EMERGENCE project aims to provide reliable information both qualitative and quantitative, on delocalised telemediated work. An interdisciplinary team (plus associates in North America and Australasia) will carry out a statistical overview, develop analytical models, conduct an international survey and carry out a comparative case studies to map, quantify and forecast the new international division of labour in information processing. It will make recommendations to official statistical bodies. It will dissemination information interactively, for use as a resource for research, benchmarking against global comparators, regional development, employment creation, equal opportunities and other policies.
The work includes:
a critical overview of the changing division of labour;
an international survey of about 8000 employers in 15 EU countries and 3 EU applicant countries, (with a further approximately 2,000 in North America and Australasia);
development of research instruments for comparative analysis of case studies in an international context;
60 case studies of relocated telemediated employment, both in "source" areas and "destination" ones;
analysis of results, including their implications for social exclusion and marginalisation, for gender equality, for supply and demand for skills and for regional development;
development of analytical models;
development of economic development toolkit for use at a regional level;
development of an interrogable database and web-site for dissemination of results to researchers, social partners and policy makers, and a variety of other dissemination activities including seminars, workshops and presentations.
