Jiyoon Park is a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Management and Labor Relations at Rutgers University. Her research explores labor organizing, inequality, and identity in the tech and creative industries. Her dissertation examines how workers and their allies in the U.S. and South Korea mobilize collective action and navigate precarious, post-bureaucratic work environments. Drawing on critical labor studies, the sociology of work, and management scholarship, her work analyzes how intersecting forces shape worker precarity and how workers organize to build collective voice. Through this, she aims to deepen the understanding of contemporary employment relations in an era marked by flexibilization, high-skill pressures, and declining institutional protections.
