Abstract

Health care support workers (HSWs) play a fundamental role in international health care systems, and yet they remain largely invisible. Despite this, the number of HSWs is growing fast as governments strive to combat illness and address social care issues in a world of finite resources. This original collection analyses the global experience of HSWs in the UK, Japan, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Portugal, Sweden and The Netherlands. Leading academics examine issues including the interface of HSWs with the health professions, regulatory practice risks, employment challenges and the dilemmas of an ageing population. Crucial future policy recommendations are also made for a world becoming increasingly dependent on HSWs.

Abstract

"Profession, professions and professionalism have taken integral roles in business and society. In this book, Mike Saks provides a thorough overview of this concept through analysis of a range of professions, including accountants, doctors and lawyers. The book offers a critical analysis of privileged occupational groups in modern societies. Anticipating a positive role for such groups in the years ahead, the book provides a comparative account of conflicting theoretical perspectives charting developments in an accessible, multi-disciplinary style. Profession documents evolution and contemporary transformation from medieval guilds, through international professional service firms, to a precarious role in the future of work. With insights into the challenges provided by neoliberalism and marketization, Profession provides a concise overview that will be essential reading for students and researchers interested in business and society"--
