| Tiivistelmä: | This paper explores the impact of New public management (NPM) on the working conditions of Portuguese higher education (here as: h-e.) academics. Based on empirical data from official statistics, it is found that changes have been slow, but already revealing a corrosion of traditional employment practices. Employment has become more precarious with professionals increasingly being employed on non-tenured contracts. This tendency is more evident in the polytechnic sector. Hence, this means that the growth in skilled employment in h-e. in Portugal is based on precarious employment relations. |
