Just getting around to this site. Imitation is the sincerest form of
flattery so I guess we should be happy that the US govt with all its
resources has adopted futurework as the title for its web site dealing with
work in the new economy.

Futurework - Trends and Challenges for Work in the 21st Century_
http://www.dol.gov/dol/asp/public/futurework/report.htm
Published by the US Department of Labor (DOL), this report explores
the social impact of the new economy and the role of the
"twenty-first century work-place" in America. _Futurework_ cites
three elements necessary for the stability of American workers:
"rising economic security over a lifetime," "a work and family
balance," and "workplaces that are safe and fair." Using numerous
charts, tables, and graphs, the report examines topics such as
workforce diversity, wage growth, changing workplaces, technology and
globalization, and future trends affecting working conditions and
worker morale. The report may be downloaded by chapter in HTML or
.pdf format. Tables, charts, and boxes may also be downloaded
separately. Additional resources at the site include a number of
full-text conference papers (in HTML or .pdf formats) and related
links. [MD] [EM]
