Full Description
Decent Work-Life in Business: Essential Tool for Sustainable Development presents a detailed discussion of the concept of decent work-life and its application in business for sustainable development. It discusses decent work-life culture in a business environment.

social dimensions of globalization and sustainable development
poverty reduction through decent work
