Dignity at work is about more than good people management practices

Abstract

This article discusses a multi-dimensional analysis of the concept of dignity at work. The research proposes that, rather than talking in general terms about dignity at work, it helps to delineate different dimensions, dignity in work and dignity at work. The analysis aims to clarify some of the complexities involved in understanding dignity at work and give far greater transparency to the role that government policy, organizations and management practice might play.
