"Spirituality and Religion in the Workplace: History, Theory, and Research"

This paper explores the underlying assumptions and history as well of the state of current theory and empirical research regarding spirituality and religion in the workplace (SRW). We first briefly describe the history of the efforts to integrate spirituality and religion into the workplace. Next we provide a review of the recent literature on SRW and highlight the major integrative and empirical work in this arena to date. Then, particular challenges associated with future theory building and research in SRW is examined.
