Abstract

Este documento examina la presencia de términos idiosincrásicos en los contratos de trabajo celebrados por organizaciones intensivas en conocimiento de la Argentina. Se utilizan datos provenientes de tres estudios independientes realizados en ámbitos diferentes: directivos de empresas líderes en el marco de un executive MBA, empleados altamente calificados del sector software y servicios informáticos, e investigadores pertenecientes a una prestigiosa institución científico-tecnológica. Los resultados informan sobre la creciente presencia de términos idiosincrásicos en los contratos laborales negociados por estos trabajadores del conocimiento, así como también sobre el momento, contenido y alcance de la negociación. Finalmente, se discute el impacto de los contratos idiosincrásicos en el marco de la gestión estratégica de recursos humanos y se presentan las implicancias teórico-prácticas asociadas a su implementación efectiva.
