Produktbeschreibung
Women's Workplace Needs: An Embodied Perspective" is a groundbreaking book authored by Reena Jackson, a renowned scholar in the field of gender studies. The book offers a fresh perspective on women's workplace needs, drawing attention to the importance of an embodied approach to understanding the challenges and experiences of women in the workplace. Jackson argues that traditional approaches to addressing gender inequality in the workplace have focused primarily on policy changes and institutional reforms. However, these approaches often fail to take into account the embodied experiences of women, which are shaped by their unique experiences of their bodies and the gendered expectations placed upon them. Using a combination of theoretical insights and empirical research, Jackson explores how women's bodies and embodied experiences impact their workplace experiences. She highlights the ways in which women's experiences of their bodies can be shaped by a range of factors, including societal norms, cultural expectations, and workplace policies and practices. Throughout the book, Jackson provides numerous examples of how an embodied perspective can help us better understand the challenges faced by women in the workplace. She discusses the impact of workplace dress codes on women's bodies and experiences, as well as the ways in which gendered expectations around emotional labor can take a toll on women's mental and physical well-being. Moreover, Jackson argues that an embodied perspective can also provide valuable insights into how we can create more equitable and inclusive workplaces. By taking into account women's embodied experiences, she suggests that we can develop policies and practices that better support women's needs and experiences. Overall, "Women's Workplace Needs: An Embodied Perspective" is a timely and thought-provoking book that offers a new perspective on gender inequality in the workplace. It is an essential read for anyone interested in gender studies, workplace policy, and creating more inclusive and equitable workplaces.
