The WHR Network emphasizes workplace-based research and its implications for policy, labor, and management. Workplace-based research is typically field research, grounded research that takes into account the workplace context. The Network is inherently multi-disciplinary and welcomes research from a broad set of disciplines, industries, and countries. Our goal is to advance the principles of fair and equitable treatment for workers, including the right to collective representation, and to advance the idea that workers are a key source of value creation. We seek to explore systems and approaches that support the attainment of worker goals, their ability to create value for the organizations in which they work, and their ability to share in that value.
