What is dignity in and at work? How is it experienced differently
by different groups of working people?Are there enduring divisions
of dignity: unequal access to what is accepted to be a fundamental
human right?How can we ensure that continued opportunities are
available for the creation, maintenance and restoration of dignity
at work?This edited collection of papers investigates the concept
of dignity and what it means to people in their working lives: how
we are perceived and valued as people in the workplace.Contributors
to over a century of social and organizational analysis have talked
about dignity at work, but the discussion has tended to take place
under headings such as citizenship, satisfaction, mutuality, pride
in work, responsible autonomy and ontological security, or to focus
on mismanagement, over-long hours, a poor working environment,
workplace bullying and harassment as the central facilitator of
indignity at work.Dignity in and at work is a far more complex
phenomenon than these representations would suggest. Neither is it
enough to suggest that equal opportunity, work life balance and
anti-bullying policies restore dignity to work, valuable
interventions though they are in themselves. The papers featured in
this edited collection suggest that we see dignity reordered and
experienced in different ways depending on our own circumstances
and viewpoints.
