Abstract

Çalışma süresinin azaltılması, iş-yaşam dengesi, verimlilik, refah üzerindeki etkileriyle birçok farklı alanda araştırma konusu olmuştur. Medyada ilgi gören bu konu hali hazırda birçok ülkede deneme aşamasında veya planlanmaktadır. Bu makalenin temel amacı çalışma süresinin azaltılması konusunda yürütülen araştırmaların niceliği hakkında kapsamlı bilgi sahibi olmaktır. Çalışma süresinin azaltılmasına odaklanan makaleler üzerinde durularak 62 makale analize alınmıştır. Veriler Web of Science veri tabanından toplanarak, VOSviewer açık kaynak yazılımıyla analiz edilmiştir. Yazar, ülke, anahtar kelime analizleri yapılarak ilişki ağları haritandırılmış ve yorumlanmıştır. Çalışma süresinin azaltılması konusunda yapılan çalışmalarda, teknolojinin gelişmesi ve refah artışı ile birlikte öncü ülkeler olması sebebiyle en etkili ülke Almanya olarak belirlenmiş ve Covid-19 ile farklı çalışma modellerinin hayata geçirilmesinin etkileri ile İngiltere’nin konu ile ilgili yayınlarının arttığı tespit edilmiştir.

A Bibliometric Analysis on Future Research Trends of Working Time Reduction

Abstract

Working time reduction (WTR) has been a subject of research in many different areas, affecting work-life balance, productivity and well-being. This subject has attracted media attention and is in the experimental phase or planned in many countries. The primary purpose of this article is to have comprehensive information about the quantity of research conducted on reducing working hours.62 articles focusing on WTR were analyzed. Data were collected from the Web of Science and analyzed with the VOSviewer. The relationship Networks were mapped and interpreted by performed authors, country and keyword analyzed. In studies on WTR, Germany has been identified as the most effective country due to being a pioneer country with the development of technology and the increase in welfare and it has been determined that the UK's publications on the subject have increased with the effects of the implementation of different working models with Covid-19.
