Abstract

With a particular focus on countries in Asia, Africa, and South America, this book offers a unique but broad insight into the nature of employee voice in ten countries in the global south. The book considers how employee voice is experienced, regulated, influenced, and contested within the employment relationship. It identifies the significance and effects of different contexts, cultures, web and social media, and dissimilarities in institutional factors in terms of enhancing employee voice or promoting silence. In other words, the book addresses general issues affecting employee voice in the global south, giving readers an understanding of employee relations that is country-specific. Readers will understand the unique nature of employee voice in Nigeria, Egypt, Kenya, China, Pakistan, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, and Argentina. Each chapter draws out the unique and diverse nature of employee voice in each country. The chapters discuss issues ranging from culture, activities of trade unions, institutional factors, web, and social media, to social and organisational justice (among others) and their effects of employee voice.
