Description

This introductory text focuses on exploring the impact of work organizations on individual employees, groups and the wider community. Arguing that the creation of working environments which promote positive well-being, eliminate unfair discrimination and promote socially and environmentally responsible behaviour is the key to long term sustainability, this text is relevant to all those who are involved in maintaining a policy of good human relations while achieving competitive success. In addition to managers and HR professionals, students of management and occupational psychology at undergraduate and MBA level will benefit from the clear and concise coverage of this important topic.
