The
Center for Women and Work, which operates within SMLR, addresses the
needs of working women. It studies public policies that affect women,
fosters and disseminates research on issues that concern working women,
and sponsors educational programs for women, policymakers and corporate
leaders, and community groups.
The Center for the Study of Collaboration in Work and Society (CSC) has achieved a national reputation for work on major
organizational change, particularly in union settings. In general, the
center promotes more participative and team-based systems of work.
