Recorded interviews arranged by employment sector

Below are links to the catalogue descriptions and digital copies of interview recordings of workers, managers and others in various employment sectors. The interviews were almost all undertaken as part of academic projects. Most of the interviewees were either retired or nearing the end of their careers so the interviews are mainly retrospective, although some also include reflections on contemporary matters. Covering dates are solely of the recordings, not necessarily of the associated records as well.
