Synopsis

This book, an insightful and informative read, explores the ever-changing relationship between employers and employees in the wake of worker unrest and growing industrialisation. By examining the impact of concepts like wage gaps and dismal working conditions on employee morale and productivity, the author underscores the need for a business model grounded in employee wellbeing. Citing the negative effects of overwork and underemployment on worker efficiency and the economic burden of poor health and unemployment, the author stresses the need for a more equitable distribution of resources and a shift towards valuing workers as assets, not mere expenses. The book concludes that viewing national economic strength through the lens of the quality of life and economic security of its people provides a more accurate and nuanced understanding of a nation's wealth.
