This comprehensive book delves into the multifaceted manifestations of climate change within the global workplace, offering a timely and insightful exploration. Through a rich tapestry of accounts, encompassing workers, their work, and the politics of resistance, it sheds light on how the impacts of climate change are intricately woven into the economic and social processes of labor. By focusing on nine empirically grounded cases, spanning diverse sectors such as commercial agriculture, labor unions, and brick kilns, this volume establishes a compelling connection between critical labor studies and key debates surrounding climate change adaptation and mitigation. Through a novel lens, it reveals how the changing climate not only shapes the impacts but also influences the adaptations and struggles of workers in climate-impacted workplaces.

The book brings together scholars from diverse fields, including anthropology, political economy, geography, and development studies, fostering a multidisciplinary approach. Its rich content will captivate students and scholars engaged in climate change adaptation, labor studies, and environmental justice, as well as those seeking a deeper understanding of how the changing climate is reshaping the terms, conditions, and politics of the global workplace.

In conclusion, this book serves as a vital resource for scholars, policymakers, and activists seeking to navigate the complex terrain of climate change and its impact on the world of work. By providing a comprehensive analysis and engaging narratives, it contributes to our understanding of the challenges and opportunities that arise in this critical era.
