Guest editorial: introduction to the special issue "diversity and employee participation"

[...]diversity is not only considered, but also examined from a thorough, comprehensive and innovative perspective. A wide range of participation practices are also explored: employees' perceptions of Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) (Hyseni, Schur, Kruse and Blanck), employee involvement practices measuring the level of job control perceived by workers (Ibukun and Pérotin) and cooperatives fully owned and managed by the workers with a focus on psychological ownership, autonomy and participation (Reibstein and Schlachter). [...]the data are very rich. Reibstein and Schlachter collected a dataset in 2017 on more than 1,100 workers in 82 worker-owned firms with data on gender, race and immigration status and Hyseni et al. collected data on 2,000 workers in law firms regarding their perception of OCB and disabilities.
