Abstract: Futurework
took an in depth look at what the workforce and workplace would look like a
half century from now. It was designed to inform readers-policymakers,
scholars, employers, workers, trade unionists, and advocates-to provoke
questions and to stimulate dialogue. The report offered insights, based on
facts and figures, into the promises and perils of growing globalization,
evolving technology, and changing demographics.
Purpose:
Alexis M. Herman, Secretary of Labor, asked for a comprehensive view of the
world of work, where we have been, where we are today, and where we would find
ourselves as we entered the next millennium. The report was the centerpiece of
her 1999 Labor Day Message.
Agency Program: This book was
compiled and published at the request of the Secretary of Labor as part of the
U.S. Department of Labor's mission to prepare the American workforce for new
and better jobs, and ensure the adequacy of America's workplaces.
