Labour market segmentation is the division of the job market into separate segments or groups. Each segment has different characteristics and opportunities. This division often depends on factors like education, skills, gender and ethnicity. People in high-segment jobs typically have better working conditions and benefits, while those in low-segment jobs may face job insecurity and fewer benefits. Segmentation can lead to inequality because not everyone has the same access to good jobs. Understanding labour market segmentation helps policymakers create programs to bridge the gap, improve job opportunities for everyone and assure fair treatment in the workplace. This approach aims to promote a more balanced and inclusive labour market. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of labour market. The topics covered in this extensive book deal with the core subjects of human resource management. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
