Produktinformationen zu „Decent Work: Concept, Theory and Measurement / Progress in Mathematics (PDF)“

The essence of the book lies in highlighting the practical applications of decent work in terms of its ability to deliver empirical measurements of qualitative and subjective phenomena with a mixed-methods approach combining tools and techniques from economics and statistics. Moreover, as the applicability of decent work is not confined to the IT industry and formal sectors of the economy, the book also provides useful guidelines on how further empirical studies can be undertaken to measure decent work in non-IT industries. As such, the book offers a rich compilation of empirical and theoretical contributions on decentwork designed to not only enrich readers' understanding, but also promote awareness of the practical relevance and technical aspects of the subject matter.
