Description

Understandings about precariousness continue to sit at the center of discussions about HRM and employment relations. In the context of existing and reconfigured inequalities, problematising the gender dimension of these discussions is fundamental to gain a nuanced understanding of lived experiences, capturing not only the struggles and hurdles but also broadening the analytical scope to consider forms of agency, empowerment and hope.

This panel discussion brings together different perspectives on the interplay between gender, migration, HRM and precariousness. In doing so it explores different facets of this complex phenomena by drawing on insights in research from different regions in the Global South.

The panel discussion aims to:
- Enhance understanding of the gender dimensions of precariousness in work migration.
- Support insightful thinking about how to develop interdisciplinary discussions about gender, migration and precariousness that inform research, scholarship and praxis.
- Reflect on how HRM scholars can utilize insights from discussions about gender, precariousness in work migration to advance HRM discussions.
- Engage in conversation that builds bridges between diverse knowledge projects
