The changing contours of fairness
Looks at the nature and incidences of (un)fairness in the workplace and maps the contours of fairness through six core fairness ‘lenses’
This research project, to map the contours of organisational fairness, is a collaboration between the CIPD, the Centre for Performance-led HR and The Work Foundation. It was conceived in the wake of a financial crisis in many Western economies which is reshaping the relationship between market, state, organisations and individuals.
The report, The changing contours of fairness: Can we match individual and organisational perspectives? outlines six broad families of fairness lenses which are applied to a range of issues faced by organisations – women on boards; pensions; executive pay; equality vs equity vs diversity; corporate social responsibility; inter-generational rewards – alternative notions of what’s fair emerge.
