Abstract

Corporate contexts are often criticised for their motives regarding the provision of employee learning opportunities. However, emancipatory education need not be in conflict with capitalism. This article explores critical literacy possibilities that synergistically serve employees and support organisational growth. Drawing from literature on adult education and critical literacy, the intent of this article is to make explicit the potential of workplace contexts to promote critical education practices that are attentive to issues of social justice.
