Full title :Inequality and organizational practice. / edited by Stefanos Nachmias, Valerie Caven.

Summary

Bringing together international authors, this edited collection addresses the need for greater inclusivity within organizational policy and practice, in order to tackle both visible and invisible inequalities amongst employees. Evidence suggests that more positive employment relationships can be brought about by tackling diversity issues, yet there are still 'grey areas' existing in the current legislative framework. Volume I explores the way that these hidden inequalities can be used to identify an individual as 'other, ' and how this ultimately affects their wellbeing and welfare at work. Analysing social justice and stigma, as well as nuanced issues within the workplace, this book is a thought-provoking read for scholars of HRM, practitioners and policy-makers.
