This insightful book draws together expansive international and
interdisciplinary evidence to develop a comprehensive framework for
understanding and enhancing workplace well-being through the lens
of job quality. It analyses how paid work influences the well-being
of workers, the organizations for which they complete tasks of
employment, and the societies in which we live. Daniel Wheatley
constructs a theoretical framework around three strategic elements:
the culture of the organization and its workers, the structures
that govern their activities, and the physical and psychological
work environment. The book then explores six dimensions which
underpin these strategic elements: job properties, flexibility,
rewarding careers, relationships, giving, and physical space and
activity. Incorporating case studies and practical insights for
applying the framework, including measurement methods, the book
offers a comprehensive account of the influences and impacts of
paid work on the quality of working lives. Contributing to the
understanding of the complex and dynamic relationship between
well-being and the quality of our working lives, this book will be
a valuable resource for scholars and students of human resource
management, organization studies, employment relations and
organizational behaviour. Its practical guidance will also be
beneficial for business managers and practitioners in these fields.
