Creative Labour provides an insight into the unique employment issues affecting workers in film, television, theatre, arts, music, radio and new media.
In the UK alone, more than 1 million people work in the creative industries, generating billions of pounds in exports each year.

Creative Labour offers a contemporary perspective on a fascinating area of study and a rapidly growing area in developed economies.
Key benefits:
- Grasp the realities of work behind the industry façade
- Evaluate real-life case-studies through a flexible, critical mindset
- Tailor your management decisions to the needs of creative staff
