Content:
"This book addresses the most pressing and current work-life issues that are impacting Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) in organisations across the Asia-Pacific. It is organised around three major themes: (1) Work-life equality and justice; (2) Technology, work, and family; and (3) Work-life values and trends in Asia, all of which will be discussed in relation to EDI. Issues concerning the work-life interface are closely intertwined with issues relating to EDI -- for example, labour market inequalities are often fuelled by the interplay of gender, race, and family circumstances. Yet, comparatively lesser attention has been given to the non-work aspects (particularly, the family context) in research on the work-life interface and contemporary EDI issues. Breaking away from a predominantly Western perspective, this book offers fresh insights and empirical evidence, shedding light on the most urgent and critical work-life challenges faced by people in the Asia-Pacific. It also provides deep understanding of the broader social, economic, and political environments shaping work-life trends. It appeals to researchers and practitioners interested in topics related to human functioning and flourishing at work, at home, and in society." --
