Introduction -
Employment is a contract between two parties, one being the employer and
the other being the employee. In a commercial setting, the employer
conceives of a productive activity, generally with the intention of
creating profits, and the employee contributes labour to the enterprise,
usually in return for payment of wages.
Employment also exists in the public, nonprofit and household sectors.
In the United States, the "standard" employment contract is considered
to be at-will meaning that the employer and employee are both free to
terminate the employment at any time and for any cause, or for no cause
at all. To the extent that employment or the economic equivalent is not
universal, unemployment exists.
Employment is almost universal in capitalist societies. Opponents of
capitalism such as Marxists oppose the capitalist employment system,
considering it to be unfair that the people who contribute the majority
of work to an organization do not receive a proportionate share of the
profit. However, the surrealist and the situationist movements were
among the few groups to actually oppose work, and during the partially
surrealist-influenced events of May 1968 the walls of the Sorbonne were
covered with anti-work graffiti.
Labourers often talk of "getting a job", or "having a job". This
conceptual metaphor of a "job" as a possession has led to its use in
slogans such as "money for jobs, not bombs". Similar conceptions are
that of "land" as a possession (real estate) or intellectual rights as a
possession (intellectual property). The Online Etymology Dictionary
explains that the origin of "job" is from the obsolete phrase "jobbe of
work" in the sense of "piece of work", and most dictionaries list the
Middle English "gobbe" meaning "lump" (gob) as the origin of "jobbe".
Attempts to link the word to the biblical character Job seem to be folk
etymology
