In the second part, it analyzes the roles of management, unions, and the state playing in shaping workplaces, since they will affect important decisions about goals, structure, personnel and technology. And then it will construe how to reorganize work more satisfying participatory and whether the goals of humanistic work-reform can be reconciled with the goals of productivity and profit, due to a fair pay and remuneration system and good leadership management.
