Towards Better Work cover

Globalization of production has created opportunities and challenges for developing country producers and workers. This volume provides solutions-oriented approaches for promoting improved working conditions and labour rights in the apparel industry.

“This book presents a timely contribution to ongoing debates on the nature of employment and working conditions within global export industries. It provides rich insights into the dynamics of labour and working conditions within the highly fragmented and internationally dispersed global apparel industry. … The book is organized into two main parts which skilfully balance theoretical perspectives with insightful empirical evidence.” (Roseline Wanjiru, Work, employment and society, Vol. 30 (2), May, 2016)
