In this study of the Belgian iron and steel industry, the various practices of plant actors are viewed in the light of the challenges defined by strategic choices of the company. ; La contribution a pour objet l’étude de l’évolution de l’organisation du travail, des pratiques de travail et des relations socio-professionnelles dans l’industrie. Il s’agit de montrer que les analyses sur la diversité des modèles productifs, conciliées avec des démarches d’enquête de terrain, permettent de dépasser les analyses classiques sur l’évolution du travail ouvrier à partir d’oppositions binaires (taylorisme versus post-taylorisme ou néo-taylorsime). Dans cette enquête sur la sidérurgie belge, la diversité des pratiques des acteurs dans les usines est référée aux enjeux définis par les orientations stratégiques de l’entreprise dans laquelle ils s’inscrivent.
