Dear colleagues,
Please forward to potential applicants who may be interested in undertaking a PhD on the role of religion in the workplace. The project is based at the University of Southampton.
Project: Religion at the workplace: experiences, beliefs and practices
A fully funded studentship awarded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) South Coast Doctoral Training Partnership (SCDTP) commencing in 2019/20 Academic Year.
We invite applications from qualified and highly motivated students to work in the area of religion, diversity, and work and employment. This research project investigates how workers negotiate faith/religious values in a multi-cultural/multi-faith workplace and how they comply with/contest practices in the world of work guided by faith-related values and the use of religious artefacts and ceremonies. This interdisciplinary research will pay particular attention to the production of religious artefacts (shrines, effigies, scapulars, prayer cards, saint cards, etc.), and practices of faith at the work place (dress code, special time off, religious jewellery, dietary requirements, prayer, meditation).
