Employment or Modern Slavery. Different perspectives on labour relations in Chinese ethnic niches and the impact of labour exploitation and human trafficking policy in the Netherlands and Romania
This conference poster is a parody of traditional Chinese restaurant menu's in the Netherlands. The poster gives an outline with some preliminary findings of the author's PhD research on labour relations in Chinese ethnic niches and at the same time aims to confront the spectator with its own role in creating unfair labour conditions and exploitation in the Chinese restaurants as a consumer of (cheap) Chinese food.
This paper seeks to explore the values, attitudes and actions of two organizations and the individuals within those organizations, Middlesex University and Northern Telecom (Nortel). The paper seeks to relate the organizational and individual characteristics to a possible culture within each institution. The paper begins by introducing the background to the greening of corporations and society that has affected corporate culture. The paper then explores the theoretical basis of culture in organizations. The third part of the paper introduces the two case study organizations and explores their environmental policies at an organizational level. The fourth section discusses the research findings with reference to whether there are distinct cultural identities in each group. The paper concludes by exploring aspects of environmental culture in organizations. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. and ERP Environment
