This book explores the workplace experiences, opportunities, and challenges that emerge from the nuances of diversity and inclusion dynamics in Latin American and Caribbean countries. While the first part of the book addresses emerging frameworks on diversity and inclusion in Latin America by examining the effects of history, traditions, and cultural differences, the second part offers case studies of country-specific actualities. The authors highlight that despite the many shared cultural aspects of the region, it is not homogeneous and there are significant differences from place to place. It follows then that a variety of cultural differences implies a variety of approaches to workplace values, and more specifically, to the understanding of diversity and inclusion. Examining topics such as gender identity, disability, and racial gaps in countries throughout the region, this book offers scholars a fresh perspective on an emerging region.

Empathy, diversity, inclusion, and soft skills are key building blocks of an innovative workforce challenged to respond to the ever-growing needs of the COVID-19 era. Organizations that value diversity and inclusion are looking for ways to manage the shift of workers and skills from traditional manufacturing to the 21st-century vision by incorporating new technology and tools. In this new model, a diverse workforce is necessary, as creativity and innovation grow from the skills that differentiate humans. Further research into the next steps for using diversity and inclusion in an efficient manner, discovering and training new skill sets, and building sustainability into the creative process is needed to fully embrace this new era of inclusion. Multidisciplinary Approach to Diversity and Inclusion in the COVID-19-Era Workplace highlights best practices of successful companies in the “new normal” conditions caused by the pandemic and provides innovative research on diversity and inclusion to help organizations navigate the changing competitive global environment. Covering a range of topics such as remote work, unconscious bias, and information literacy, it is ideal for professors, researchers, academicians, practitioners, human resource professionals, industry professionals, and students.

Law and Employment analyzes the effects of regulation and deregulation on Latin American labor markets and presents empirically grounded studies of the costs of regulation. Numerous labor regulations that were introduced or reformed in Latin America in the past thirty years have had important economic consequences. Nobel Prize-winning economist James J. Heckman and Carmen Pagés document the behavior of firms attempting to stay in business and be competitive while facing the high costs of complying with these labor laws. They challenge the prevailing view that labor market regulations affect only the distribution of labor incomes and have little or no impact on efficiency or the performance of labor markets. Using new micro-evidence, this volume shows that labor regulations reduce labor market turnover rates and flexibility, promote inequality, and discriminate against marginal workers. Along with in-depth studies of Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Jamaica, and Trinidad, Law and Employment provides comparative analysis of Latin American economies against a range of European countries and the United States. The book breaks new ground by quantifying not only the cost of regulation in Latin America, the Caribbean, and in the OECD, but also the broader impact of this regulation.
