However, the benefits of this transformation have largely been enjoyed by white-collar workers who have the ability to work from home, leaving a significant portion of the global workforce, including those responsible for essential services such as fresh water, environmental hygiene, transportation, electricity, healthcare, food, and security, without the option of remote work. This has resulted in a widening gap between white and blue-collar and grey-collar workers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eManagement and Organizational Studies on Blue and Grey Collar Workers delves into the latest issues related to digitalization and migration, their impact on organizational commitment, HRM functions, and strategic management processes.
