Technology and It's Impact on the Employee.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper was to examine the effects of technology on the employee in terms of alienation and job satisfaction. The results of the research indicate that the technological impact on the employee has been one of overt alienation. Industry has been slow to respond in a concerted effort to counter this alienation. There is an increasing effort on the part of many industries to accept innovativeness and apply humanistic techniques that could lead to a satisfying job and industrial environment. (Author)
