Since its inception in the 1980s, the ILPC has consistently provided a robust platform for fostering interdisciplinary dialogue. This year marked the 42nd edition of the conference, drawing together a vibrant array of scholars spanning disciplines such as sociology of work, industrial and employment relations, organization and management studies, feminism, and political economy. The conference program was rich and diverse, covering a broad spectrum of topics, including automation, technology, worker\u2019s alienation, migration, working-class resistance, industrial conflict, gender &amp; work, and the impact of European policies on the labour market. Each presentation contributed to a nuanced understanding of the complexities inherent in contemporary labour processes, offering fresh perspectives and innovative approaches to addressing the challenges of the modern work environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zuzanna Kowalik showcased a collaborative <a href=\"https:\/\/ibs.org.pl\/en\/publications\/automation-in-shared-service-centres-implications-for-skills-and-autonomy-in-a-global-organisation\/\">working paper<\/a> authored by Piotr Lewandowski (IBS), Tomasz Geodecki (Cracow University of Economics), and Maciej Grodzicki (Jagiellonian University) during the conference. This paper delved into the compelling topic of automation&#8217;s impact within Shared Services Centres (SSCs) on workers&#8217; skills and autonomy. The authors drew upon Braverman\u2019s labour process theory (LPT) &#8211; a theoretical framework that posits automation as a force driving deskilling. According to LPT, automation compels workers into specialized, repetitive roles, eroding their overall proficiency and autonomy, ultimately leading to deskilling, job dissatisfaction, and disengagement. Such processes have also been observed within SSCs, where informatization, standardization, and softwarization have transformed professional roles into predefined, often simple procedures, eliminating the requirement for specialized skills or insights. The presented study sought to discern whether the current wave of automation reinforces or reverses this prevailing trend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":42765,"template":"","news_type":[308,2859],"class_list":["post-42768","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news_type-conference","news_type-conference-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>42nd International Labour Process Conference - IBS - Instytut Bada\u0144 Strukturalnych<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Coverage of 42nd International Labour Process Conference, where Zuzanna Kowalik presented IBS research findings.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ibs.org.pl\/en\/news\/42nd-international-labour-process-conference\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"42nd International Labour Process Conference - IBS - Instytut Bada\u0144 Strukturalnych\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Coverage of 42nd International Labour Process Conference, where Zuzanna Kowalik presented IBS research findings.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/ibs.org.pl\/en\/news\/42nd-international-labour-process-conference\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"IBS - Instytut Bada\u0144 Strukturalnych\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-05-08T12:04:48+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/ibs.org.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/logo-ILPC-wezsze.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"196\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"180\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/news\\\/42nd-international-labour-process-conference\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/news\\\/42nd-international-labour-process-conference\\\/\",\"name\":\"42nd International Labour Process Conference - IBS - Instytut Bada\u0144 Strukturalnych\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/news\\\/42nd-international-labour-process-conference\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/news\\\/42nd-international-labour-process-conference\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2024\\\/05\\\/logo-ILPC-wezsze.png\",\"datePublished\":\"2024-04-10T11:55:10+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-05-08T12:04:48+00:00\",\"description\":\"Coverage of 42nd International Labour Process Conference, where Zuzanna Kowalik presented IBS research findings.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/news\\\/42nd-international-labour-process-conference\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/news\\\/42nd-international-labour-process-conference\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/news\\\/42nd-international-labour-process-conference\\\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2024\\\/05\\\/logo-ILPC-wezsze.png\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2024\\\/05\\\/logo-ILPC-wezsze.png\",\"width\":196,\"height\":180},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/news\\\/42nd-international-labour-process-conference\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"42nd International Labour Process Conference\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/ibs.org.pl\\\/en\\\/\",\"name\":\"IBS - Instytut Bada\u0144 Strukturalnych\",\"description\":\"Jeste\u015bmy niezale\u017cn\u0105 fundacj\u0105 naukow\u0105.
