Özet:

Occupation/profession has vital functions in terms of both individual and society. It has a determining role in operation of society, establishing individual's social status and joining the society. Traditionally, being a stable structure, occupation has been in a radical transformation process today. Occupation now faces a mortal deformation due to the fact that new capitalism made the work life totally flexibility, variability and temporality/volatility. Current labour market risks individual's adopting his/her job as a occupation and being occupied with it. As a result, individual's occupational ties get thinner, and identification process becomes impossible. That substituting machines rather than human's labour in work life, changes the performance manner of occupations completely, thereby alienating by keeping him/her away from products/services. Today it is not necesssary for an individual to reserve himself to one job, thanks to the technology making synchronous jobs possible. Therefore, this makes occupation's limits obscure, occupational consciousness weaker, and day by day the occupation becomes a temporary struggle
