Corporate downsizing has become a leading strategy of choice for many corporations and governmental agencies. The relentless pursuit of increased levels of organizational efficiencies, profitability, and competitiveness has produced major layoffs and redundancies. Euphemistic terms, including rightsizing, resizing, and restructuring commonly appear in the popular press. As a goal-oriented management tool, downsizing has transformed entire economies and industries, changed hundreds of thousands of organizations, and profoundly affected the lives of tens of millions of employees, as well as thousands of managers and their families, around the world. What is behind this phenomenon? What drives executives to ruthlessly abolish jobs and jettison workers? What are the consequences of downsizing? Is downsizing merely a thing of the past or a contemporary phenomenon as well? This book, the first of its kind, provides a rare and detailed synthesis and review of the existing body of knowledge on downsizing, drawn from academic studies from around the world. It clarifies the many mysteries and misconceptions surrounding downsizing. The book conducts an extensive examination of the effectiveness of downsizing and also provides answers to controversial issues, such as the ethical aspects of downsizing. Finally, the book presents the current state of employment in the wake of further downsizing. The overall picture is clear, yet sobering: downsizing is here to stay. This book on downsizing is an invaluable resource and tool for corporate executives, policy-makers, researchers, consultants, and social science students.
