Ethical Issues in Contemporary Human Resource Management

Aimed at advanced undergraduates, postgraduates, and MBA students, this text is a timely contribution filling a gap in HRM literature. There are many texts on HRM and many texts on ethics, but none which takes these issues together as a focus. Covering the subject of HRM in a rigorous and comprehensive way thereby making it suitable for use as a single course text, the book uses ethical frameworks to look at areas of current ethical concern in trends and practice, as well as examples and methods for promoting good practice.
