Abstract

This chapter aims to discuss the key elements of the first volume and highlight the main areas for exploration. It provides an evaluation on the meaning of hidden inequalities in modern organisations with particular emphasis on issues around work and welfare. It seeks to debate current organisational practices and provide a new thinking as to how hidden inequalities could be addressed to improve the quality of work and individual welfare in the workplace. This volume shows that more needs to be done to promote work and welfare and most importantly remove hidden inequalities from the workplace. The chapter provides a review of the volume’s structure, objectives and context with the scope to enable the reader to briefly assess the main issues covered in the first volume.
