About this book: Improving Workplace Quality casts light on the most recent developments in the field of worker well-being with contributions from a number of disciplinary domains (law, economics, organization theory, sociology, etc.). A consensus has developed in workplace studies around the concept of well-being at work in an awareness that such apparently distinct aspects as health and safety, discrimination, labour market integration, and work-life balance converge in the workplace and are best treated as one complex phenomenon. This important book provides an in-depth analysis of ongoing changes in the world of work and their impact on personal well-being. The contributors place specific workplace experiences in a comparative perspective, examining policy and regulatory initiatives and judicial rulings at national, regional, and international levels. What s in this book: This book offers twelve contributions by distinguished international scholars from a range of disciplinary domains the case studies are drawn from Italy, France, the United States, Russia, and other developing countries.
