N2  - This study uses qualitative data collected in Australia, New Zealand and Canada to show that agency mission and immediate supervisors remain centrally important to workers’ identity and willingness to remain employed in social care in an environment where many social care jobs have shifted from the public to the non-profit sector, accompanied by funding cuts, government contracts, managerialism and performance management. .Resistance strategies that agencies, workers
and unions have used to challenge the hegemony of outcome-oriented funding and management models are explored. (from the Authors' abstract)
