520 _aIn an increasingly globalised world, an understanding of the diversity in the concept and practice of employee wellbeing, how it is presented, experienced, regulated and contested, is particularly vital. This contributed volume presents studies from African, Asian and South American countries to paint a picture of employee wellbeing in the Global South, including the commonalities and points of difference across that broad context. The chapters not only capture the significance and impacts of contexts and cultures, but also, the different institutional environments that enhance or suppress employee wellbeing in employment relations. With a critical lens, this book explains how assumptions should not be made of employee wellbeing without a knowledge of the regional, national or local context. It will be of great interest to scholars and students of HRM, work and employment and international business.
