What are the major changes that you are observing in the world of work? We are experiencing a moment of great misalignment between the constraints and rewards of work. We were used to employment with constraints – strong divisions of tasks, subordination, time and place constraints – but in exchange we had counterparts which made these constraints acceptable (increasing salaries, paid leave, social protection and especially access to housing). Today, it is massively misaligned with on the one hand the appearance of new jobs which have somewhat eased constraints such as hybrid work, flexible jobs, microenterprises, teleworking.
How has the misalignment between work constraints and rewards impacted employee satisfaction, as discussed by Lætitia Vitaud?

Lætitia is an author, consultant, and speaker, and she will be the key witness at the upcoming Cher Business Trophies on Thursday, November 21, at the Palais d’Auron in Bourges.

I work on several topics related to the future of work, with a particular focus on productivity, age, and gender. I am also an expert at the Welcome to The Jungle lab, which is dedicated to helping professionals navigate the complexities of the modern workplace.
[Interviewer’s Name]: That’s fascinating! You have a wealth of knowledge and experience in the field. Now let’s get started with our interview. The article mentions that you have observed significant changes in the world of work. Could you share some of these changes with our readers?
Lætitia Vitaud: Certainly! We are currently experiencing a moment of great misalignment between the constraints and rewards of work. In the past, employment came with clear constraints like strong task divisions, subordination, time and location constraints. However, it also offered counterparts like increasing salaries, paid leave, social protection and especially access to housing. Nowadays, there are new jobs that have eased some of these constraints such as hybrid work, flexible jobs, microenterprises, and teleworking. But the rewards haven’t kept up. This misalignment is causing a lot of stress and dissatisfaction among workers.
[Interviewer’s Name]: That’s an interesting perspective. As a speaker, how do you see these changes affect
