Is it a new economy, new ways of doing business, or the employees themselves? A more globalized economy has had effect on employment A large number of companies are now international, and one of them may decide that moving its offices from Germany to Poland, for example, is in its best interest That means employees who live and work in Germany may be asked to relocate their families to a new country or be told that their jobs are simply eliminated Companies have also responded to economic pressures by restructuring for greater efficiency This sort of change within a company usually means that unnecessary jobs are cut, or that fewer employees must more work In either case, some employees find themselves looking for new jobs New technology has also had an impact on workplaces The increasing use of personal computers has meant fewer jobs for office secretaries, as their former bosses their own word processing and letter writing, and for travel agents, as more travelers make their own reservations online Automation, including the use of robotic devices, has replaced workers in clothing factories, post offices, and telephone companies, to name just a few Besides these economic and technological reasons, today's employees are also responsible for more frequent job changes Workers in the past were less likely to leave a company because they were dissatisfied with working conditions or because they didn't get along well with their fellow employees People today expect to enjoy their work and to get a high degree of personal satisfaction from what they for a living Employees may also leave a job because they have learned all they can lean from their current job Getting a new job means gaining new skills and making new contracts, and these skills and relationships could bring them a step closer to their "dream job", the one that is challenging, emotionally and financially rewarding, and preferably closer to home or their children's school Finally, companies start up and close down more quickly than they once did Employees who suspect that their employer is not doing well may decide to start looking for a new position before the company closes its doors Question 35: The passage is mainly about A reasons companies aren't taking care of employees as they once did B ways in which international companies have caused a loss of jobs C reasons employees change jobs more frequently than they did in the past D the contrast between employers of the past and employers nowadays Question 36: How has globalization affected employment?
