“…For example, research within an African Ubuntu style of management found that "a sense of selfworth and dignity" (Browning, 2006(Browning, , p. 1331) is achieved through supporting team spirit, fairness, autonomy and empowerment, and demonstrating respect (Browning, 2006). Thus, Ubuntu, similar to dignity, "tries to capture the essence of what it means to be human" (Murithi, 2007, p. 281) and shares a concern for non-exploitative working conditions and emphasis on moral values, mutual respect and recognition (Pietersen, 2005). Thus, while differences undoubtedly exist, the concept of dignity might have sufficient universal currency to contribute to a better understanding of decent work in tourism employment.…”
