An organizational behaviour and human resources management perspective on Canada’s controversial migrant labour program.
Catherine E. Connelly is professor of organizational behaviour in the DeGroote School of Business at McMaster University.
"Enduring Work is well-grounded empirically, clearly written, and engaging – a valuable addition to the literature. The book closely examines the lives of Temporary Foreign Workers, using a clear human resources perspective, and enhances our understanding of the program and workers' experiences with it." Jason Foster, Athabasca University and co-author of Health and Safety in Canadian Workplaces "Informative and accessible, Enduring Work offers useful reading to students of labour studies, sociology, migration, and geography, as well as anyone interested in Canadian issues." Alison Braley-Rattai, Brock University and co-author of *Canadian Labour Relations: Law, Policy, and Practice * "This work takes the myth that there are any winners in Temporary Foreign Worker (TFW) regimes head-on. Connelly compares the Canadian experience with that of other countries. Her findings conclude that Temporary Labor Migration programs are not the panacea everyone hopes for. Highly recommended."
