Work is a central aspect of human life, shaping not only economic security but also identity, purpose, and social belonging. Yet contemporary forces such as globalization, technological change, and evolving labor relations are transforming how work is organized, experienced, and valued. These shifts have created new opportunities while also raising important questions about job quality, equity, wellbeing, and the meaning of work in modern societies. Understanding how work contributes to individual and collective wellbeing has therefore become a critical concern for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers alike. As organizations and economies continue to evolve, there is a growing need to examine the conditions that support both decent work and human flourishing. Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Labor Experience and Worker Well-Being brings together contributions from psychology, sociology, economics, management, and related fields to examine how structural conditions, organizational contexts, and individual experiences interact to shape workers’ well-being. This book deepens understanding of how people experience work and how these experiences affect their well-being across diverse social, economic, and institutional contexts. Covering topics such as neuropositional alignment, migrant labor, and employer value proposition, this book is a fundamental academic resource for graduate and doctoral students, human resource professionals, organizational leaders, workplace development specialists, labor economists, employment researchers, policymakers, and more.
