What makes a good job?

Where have all the good jobs gone? With the shift from manufacturing to service sector jobs in many industrialised countries, Audrey Tinline and guests look at whether some jobs are providing a better quality of work than others. Many people now expect to have a number of different jobs, or even careers, across their working lives - have we lost something in not having a job for life? Or have we gained new freedoms to re-invent ourselves?
