Why business academics remain in Australian universities despite deteriorating working conditions and reduced job satisfaction : an intellectual puzzle
journal contribution
posted on 2003-05-01, 00:00 authored by S Bellamy, C Morley, Kim WattyKim WattyIn the last two decades, Australia's 38 universities have been subjected to profound changes affecting the working lives of their academic staff. That the working conditions of staff have deteriorated cannot be denied, while many studies have shown that job satisfaction has been affected adversely. Paradoxically, there is little evidence that academics are seeking employment outside the university system. In this article, the authors report the findings from their survey of over 3000 academics employed in business disciplines in Australian universities, which aimed to find explanations for this phenomenon.
