Preferred term

white-collar sweatshop  

Definition

  • Employment in large organizations has undergone significant change in recent decades. During the postwar “golden age” of the expansion of capitalism, large organizations such as publicly listed corporations and state-run bureaucracies offered long-term, stable employment to blue-collar workers and even more so to white-collar workers.
