Abstract:This study aims at conducting a quantitative analysis of the factors leading Spanish companies to adopt certain forms of organization typical of flexible businesses and high performance organizations. In spite of the supposed inflexibility of the Spanish labour market, the results point towards the high capacity of Spanish companies to select the form of work organization to suit best for them. The results show the key role that competitive strategy plays as to differentiating or segmenting types of work or workers, over and above the rigid working regulations that standardize labour relations in Spain.
