It illustrates that with the implementation of performance management practices in general, and electronic performance management monitoring in bank branches in particular, co-worker relationships have become increasingly objectified, resulting in disconnected and conflict-ridden forms of engagement. The analysis reveals the multi-layered and necessarily complex nature of co-worker relationships in a changing technologically driven work environment and highlights the possibilities for people to defend the capacity to care for others from the erosive tendencies of individualised processes.}, language = {en} } @misc{BoltonLaaserMcGuireetal., author = {Bolton, Sharon C. and Laaser, Knut and McGuire, Darren and Duncan, Ashley}, title = {A neglected pool of labour?
