OtherSocietal developments are reconfiguring taken for granted elements of working life and working life studies: Technologies such as AI and platform work, new valorizations of work as when the less work movement meet workfare, and macro developments such as labor shortage and new ways of organizing work-capital relations. All these developments challenge the doings and conceptualizations of working life. What happens to the workplace, traditionally a cornerstone of both development of and research on working life in the Nordic countries, when faced with these and other developments? What does it mean for workplace learning, collectivity, and democracy? What happens to the content and conceptualization of work, let alone professionalism, meaning and identity? And where does it leave industrial relations, collective rights, and labor market policy?
