“In this timely, empirically rich study, Scillio provides a sophisticated account of the career stories that we tell ourselves in order to make sense of our lives and our work trajectories. He innovates by developing the concept of career security which enables us to reach beyond the objective factors associated with income and employment conditions to consider also the subjective meanings that are forged as individuals grasp the social and personal meanings of work. This book is highly recommended for students and specialists in the field.” (Simon Stewart, Deputy Director of the Centre for European and International Studies Research, University of Portsmouth, UK)
This book is about how people construct career stories: the stories we use to make sense of our work life. Mark Scillio explores the idea of security in the current turbulent employment climate, investigating employment experiences in developed, wealthy countries like Australia, the United States, and the United Kingdom―where careers have become fragmented, complex, and uncertain. Using Anthony Giddens’ notion of ontological security, Scillio develops a concept of career security that goes beyond economic and financial concerns and encompasses the personal and social meaning of work. The ramifications of succeeding (or failing) to forge a good career narrative are explored through a series of detailed case studies.
