Almost one in four American working adults has a job that pays less than a living wage. Conventional wisdom says that’s how the world has to work. Bad jobs with low wages, minimal benefits, little training, and chaotic schedules are the only way companies can keep costs down and prices low. Right?
Wrong. In an upcoming, complimentary webinar, The Good Jobs Strategy: Why Good Jobs Are Good for Businesses, MIT Sloan Professor Zeynep Ton examines how organizations can design and manage their operations in a way that everyone–employees, customers, and investors—wins. Referencing research from her popular book, The Good Jobs Strategy: How the Smartest Companies Invest in Employees to Lower Costs and Boost Profits, Ton makes the compelling case that even in low-cost settings, leaving employees behind with bad jobs is a choice, not a necessity.
Join Professor Ton on June 26 to learn why the race to the bottom in retail employment (and other industries) doesn’t have to be the only game being played.
