Abstract:

<p> Inadequate leadership is the reason workplace accidents in the mining industry remain high, making the industry one of the most hazardous operational activities in the world. Unsafe leadership practices may result in death or injury to workers. A group of 30 mining company leaders from 3 gold mines in Zimbabwe revealed an exception to these hazardous practices, however, notable through their outstanding safety improvement records. To better understand what these practitioners were doing, this multicase study research design explored their strategies to improve the workplace safety environm

Abstract:

Little empirical work has been conducted on workplace practices in university settings. Meanwhile, the impact of feedback on changing consumption patterns has been mainly studied through individualistic approaches. The academic workplace with its variety of users offers a setting that could provide a range of insights as to how practices form and change under the impact of efficiency interventions and, in turn, how relevant policies could be formed. This research looks at workplace practices related to the regulation of indoor temperature and the use of office equipment. It examines the potent

Abstract:

It is widely acknowledged that discipline at work is a neglected area of study in the context of contemporary employee relations. Within the workplace the handling of discipline is largely prescribed by formal rules that are captured in policies, applied through procedures and then interpreted by the actors who facilitate this process. This thesis argues that an empirical understanding of the disciplinary process can only be achieved if it includes an appreciation of the nature of the relationship that is established during the disciplinary process and that this is crucial for us to develop a

Abstract:

High staff turnover in the workplace has been known in psychological and business literature to negatively impact organisation performance and staff wellbeing. Recent research into staff turnover has sought to explore the organisational and community factors that act to keep employees engaged in their current roles, and Job Embeddedness Theory (JET), has emerged to explore and understand these reasons. JET has been shown to be causally linked to organisational outcomes such as turnover, staff productivity and job satisfaction. The present study aims to explore the role of organisational embedd

Today’s globalised world calls for a multilingual workplace, with employees who can communicate effectively and efficiently with colleagues and clients around the world.

This study addresses the question of how an individuals perception of the safety of his or her institutional space impacts on shame management skills. Shame has been widely recognised as a core emotion that can readily take the form of anger and violence in interpersonal relationships if it is unresolved. When shame is not acknowledged properly, feelings of shame build up and lead to shame-rage spirals that break down social bonds between people. Some might consider the total avoidance of shame experiences as a way to cut the link between shame and violence. However, there is a reason why we

Abstract:

Drawing upon my eleven-month ethnographic fieldwork in two business organisations in Bangkok, Thailand, this thesis explores Thai women office workers consumption of makeup and clothes at work.

Grounded in theoretical discussions and empirical findings, I argue that the women s consumption of makeup and clothes is not always in the pursuit of beauty, but rather the pursuit of looking good.

The practice of workplace learning is important for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to stay competitive in the face of today's environmental pressures from globalisation, competition, technological advancement and the knowledge economy.

Abstract:

This thesis provided a qualitative investigation into the use of advice and information by Work Heath and Safety (WHS) inspectors in Queensland.

The research examined the current state-of-play regarding the use of advice and information by WHS inspectors, and how it is experienced by members of the Queensland construction industry.

Abstract:

Many companies fail to deliver adequate value from their continuous improvement (CI) initiatives. Both CI initiatives and organisational health and wellness programs aim to deliver significant organisational benefits. This research investigates whether there is a relationship between higher levels of healthy workplace practices (HWP), an outcome of successful organisational health and wellness programs, and the success and maturity of CI initiatives. Through quantitative research the levels of four HWP (healthy lifestyle habits, employee health, employee involvement and work-life balance) were

Abstract:

In spite of the substantial repository of literature about respirators, little is known about the practicalities of their use. The focus of this research was about the practical aspects of using respirators in New South Wales workplaces. Two self-administered postal surveys were used to assess the level of implementation of respirator programs in 1996 and 2001. After five years, six elements improved. The most improvement was seen in the area of documentation including written procedures, keeping training records, recording respirator tasks, and maintenance records. The second survey investiga

In Study I, three leadership styles were investigated to determine their relative importance for different safety outcomes. A leadership style specifically emphasizing safety was found to

Abstract:

This thesis is a user study within library and information science on participatory practices of a professional group in work activity. This has been investigated only to a minor extent in previous library and information science research. The qualitative empirical focus alternates between physicians‟ engagements in work practice and workplace learning within patient care. The overall research problem was to learn how people in workplaces interacted with information that was embedded, intricately intertwined, and tightly bound to the ongoing routines of their everyday work.
