Abstract
The present paper analyses current employment and work policies in French establishments on the basis of the REPONSE survey that was conducted in 1998. By employment and work policy we mean a parallel study of customary employment relationship characteristics as well as work organisation practices. Our study is rooted in several employment policy variables as well as variables relating to work organisation. The methodology used is based on two complementary analytical tools: multiple correspondence analysis (MCA); and Kohonen’s neuronal algorithm (KMCA). After an exploratory study our interpretations are complemented by the construction of a typology.
