ABSTRACT

This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered in the preceding chapters of the book. The book outlines the contours of a reflexive, critical and power-sensitive human resource management (HRM) concerning Muslim minorities at work. It focuses on how the transformations of the image of Turkish immigrants in Germany between 1973 and 2006, be it in the media or in political discourse, also reflects a transformation of Germany's identity. The book examines how workplace experiences of Muslim employees in South Africa are to a high degree influenced by the workplace legislation that allows for discriminatory practices. It expresses that Islamic business ethics can be practiced in a secular state as France while also complying with the existing laws. The book presents the workplace experiences of senior managers, all Muslim women, and their opinions on barriers to success.
