Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.

This Research Agenda situates gender at the centre of critical debates about the future of work. Leading experts provide a thorough survey of contemporary research around employment, gender and inclusivity issues, proposing future directions for prospective work arrangements.

Chapters interrogate how emerging technological, environmental and demographic changes are reconfiguring employment in relation to labour, leadership and legitimacy. Through a diverse range of disciplinary perspectives, contributing authors address crucial topics such as the impact of AI, incels and misogyny, remote working, female entrepreneurs, LGBTQIA+ networks, migration status, and disabled women in the workplace. They explore gendered and intersectional inequalities through various facets of working life, calling for a more inclusive and fair future of work that challenges, rather than accommodates, dominant structures.

A Research Agenda for the Future of Inclusivity in Work is an essential resource for students and academics in gender studies, business and management, human resource management and sociology. It is also of interest to employers, administrators and policymakers involved in creating a more inclusive working environment.
