Textul de pe ultima copertă
“As much as the workplace has changed in my time here, one thing still holds true—it is a business, first and foremost. Remembering that is the key to understanding it, so while reading this book, I ask that you keep an open mind. It is incredibly easy to politicize and stereotype adult entertainment and those of us who make it. I ask that you treat our industry as you would any other; we are an industry often neglected in academic research and appreciate Kopp’s investigation into our world. I know I do.” -Casey Calvert, Adult Performer and Director
While pornography is stigmatized as “dirty work," it faces many of the same operational considerations as traditional industries. From increasing competition, new technology that impacts services, to health and workplace safety issues, the pornography industry also utilizes and applies HRM strategies that include recruiting, selecting and retaining the best (sex) workers. As a follow up to his last book on the social history of training and development (2018), Kopp writes this final installment of a system contained within an unconventional setting as he reflects and distills the facets of human resource management found in the pornography industry.
Specifically, this book explores traditional human resource management processes and practices, and examines how common HRM systems are contextualized in an “organization-as-pariah” venue. Topics covered include recruiting, career development, performance management and workforce diversity, offering readers a value-neutral, analytical assessment of the HR practices in the unconventional industry and stigmatized trade that is pornography.
