商品描述

In an increasingly globalised world, an understanding of the diversity in the concept and practice of employee wellbeing, how it is presented, experienced, regulated and contested, is particularly vital. This contributed volume presents studies from African, Asian and South American countries to paint a picture of employee wellbeing in the Global South, including the commonalities and points of difference across that broad context.

The chapters not only capture the significance and impacts of contexts and cultures, but also, the different institutional environments that enhance or suppress employee wellbeing in employment relations. With a critical lens, this book explains how assumptions should not be made of employee wellbeing without a knowledge of the regional, national or local context. It will be of great interest to scholars and students of HRM, work and employment and international business.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

在日益全球化的世界中,理解員工福祉的概念和實踐中的多樣性,以及其呈現、體驗、規範和爭議的方式,顯得尤為重要。本書匯集了來自非洲、亞洲和南美國家的研究,描繪了全球南方的員工福祉情況,包括在這一廣泛背景下的共通點和差異。

各章節不僅捕捉了背景和文化的重要性及影響,還探討了不同的制度環境如何促進或抑制就業關係中的員工福祉。本書以批判的視角解釋了在不了解區域、國家或地方背景的情況下,不應對員工福祉做出假設。這將對人力資源管理、工作與就業以及國際商務的學者和學生產生極大的興趣。
