Description: "This book explores the multiple impacts of global competitive pressures brought about largely by globalization on employment relations in Pacific Asia. The volume brings together research from Australia and New Zealand, as well as from China, Japan, Malaysia and Singapore, to illuminate our understanding of what is actually happening to organizations, workforces, employee groupings and individual employees as a result of globalization and the intensification of global competition in Pacific Asia."--Jacket.
