Decent Work Deficits in Southern Agriculture: Measurements, Drivers and Strategies (Labor and Globalization)

 
Decent Work Deficits in Southern Agriculture: Measurements, Drivers and Strategies (Labor and Globalization)

Description

Up to 60 percent of the Global South's work force toils in agriculture. Most smallholders and waged agricultural workers labor under poor health, safety and environmental conditions. This volume explores - the extent of the decent work deficit with a focus on women in agriculture, - the drivers of the poor remuneration and working conditions - some strategies for mitigating the decent work deficits. Its contributors argue that the severity of the decent work deficits in agriculture calls for action. Given the divers contexts of agricultural work and the many factors reproducing the deficits, action is needed in a comprehensive as well as context-specific form. The contributors are academics from Brazil, Columbia, Germany, Ghana, India, Mexico and Pakistan.
