Overview of my current research on Human Resource Management and Industrial relations issues:
Research Assistant
Louvain School of Management Research Institute (ILSM) - Center for Research in Entrepreneurial Change and Innovative Strategies (CRECIS)
- The role of HRM on SMEs performance and innovation in Wallonia and Brussels: This research project aims at identifying the conditions under which HRM policies and practices contribute to SMEs innovation and performances (2012-2015)
- Managing Sustainable Innovative Workplace: This research aims at identifying the conditions for developing sustainable innovative workplace practices and the impact it may have on organizational performance (2012-2015)
PhD Candidate In management
Louvain School of Management Research Institute (ILSM) - Center for Research in Entrepreneurial Change and Innovative Strategies (CRECIS)
The aim of my doctoral project is to understand teleworking’s uses through bargaining. The objective of this research project is threefold:
(a) Define teleworking as a flexibility practice in organizations and describing the different uses, as well;
(b) Objectivize the different forms and natures of bargaining by lighting the dynamic processes through which compromises emerge and overlap;
(c) Highlight the process underlying the implementation of management practices in organizations from the social relationships (such as power issues).
The latest starts from actors’ perspective to understand why the use of teleworking practices can be different from a company to another, according to the nature of the compromise. This faces to an instrumentalist approach which only considers that a management practice has to be implement, to be effective

National Correspondent for the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions (Eurofound)
Institut des Sciences du Travail - Centre Interdisciplinaire de Recherche Travail, Etat et Société (CIRTES)
Eurofound is the European Foundation for the Improvements of Living and Working Conditions (http://www.eurofound.europa.eu/index.htm). As Belgian national correspondent, I provide different comparative studies on specific topics such as the unemployment benefits system, the measures for tackling undeclared work or public policy and support for restructuring in SMEs. Moreover, I provide representativeness studies of trade unions and employer associations in many different sectors such live performance, audiovisual, construction or cross-sectoral. Finally, I provide some different information updates on special events or topics within the Belgian indusrial relations as such as all of positive and negative restructuring cases, in Belgium.
