There has been continuous erosion of the influence and power of trade unions over the last three decades. Does this indicate that the industrial relations system premised on a concept that there is an imbalance of power in the employment relationship is now outdated, that workplace problems in a complex business environment are better addressed by new approaches such as ‘human resource management’ or organisational behaviour

The industrial relations system in India has been under pressure for decades and new problems are emerging as the country becomes more integrated into the global economy. The main architecture of the system was established prior to Independence and remains mostly unchanged. The system is highly centralized and the state is the main mediator between capital and labour. This essay provides a broad overview Industrial Relations and the labour market reform debate that has arisen in the context of economic change. The structure of the Indian labour market, the overwhelming size of the informal or `unorganized' workforce, and its location outside the industrial system is the fundamental challenge facing Indian industrial relations. There is an urgent need to develop a system that embraces all workers especially given India's demographic profile and the expected increase in the number of working age people over the next decade.
Industrial relations are the relationship between management and employees or among employees and their organization. Industrial relation deal with either the relationships between the state and the employers and the workers organization or the relation between the occupational organizations themselves. The ILO uses the expression to denote such matters as freedom of association and the protection of the right to organize, the application of the principles of the right to organize, and the right of collective bargaining, collective agreements, conciliation and arbitration and machinery for cooperation between the authorities and the occupational organizations at various levels of the economy.
The term Industrial Relations refers to relationship between Management and Labor or among Employees and their organizations that characterize or grow out of employment. Theoretically speaking, there are two parties in the employment relationship labor and management. Both parties need to work in a spirit of cooperation, adjustment and accommodation. In their own mutual interest certain rules for co-existence are formed and adhered to. Over the years, the State has also come to play a major role in Industrial Relations one, as and initiator of policies and the other, as an employer by setting up an extremely large public sector.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. Industrial relations is a multidisciplinary field that studies the employment relationship.[1][2]
Industrial relations is increasingly being called employment relations or employee relations
because of the importance of non-industrial employment relationships;[3] this move is sometimes
seen as further broadening of the human resource management trend.[4] Indeed, some authors
now define human resource management as synonymous with employee relations.[5] Other
authors see employee relations as dealing only with non-unionized workers, whereas labor
relations is seen as dealing with unionized workers.[6] Industrial relations studies examine
various employment situations, not just ones with a unionized workforce. However, according to
Bruce E. Kaufman "To a large degree, most scholars regard trade unionism, collective
bargaining and labor-management relations, and the national labor policy and labor law within
which they are embedded, as the core subjects of the field."[7]
Initiated in the United States at end of the 19th century, it took off as a field in conjunction with
the New Deal. However, it is generally a separate field of study only in English-speaking
countries, having no direct equivalent in continental Europe.[1] In recent times, industrial
relations has been in decline as a field, in correlation with the decline in importance of trade
unions,[7] and also with the increasing preference of business schools for the human resource
management paradigm.
Industrial Relations
Industrial relations is used to denote the collective relationships between management
and the workers. Traditionally, the term industrial relations is used to cover such aspects
of industrial life as trade unionism, collective bargaining, workers’ participation in
management, discipline and grievance handling, industrial disputes and interpretation of
labor laws and rules and code of conduct.
In the words of Lester, "Industrial relations involve attempts at arriving at solutions
between the conflicting objectives and values; between the profit motive and social
gain; between discipline and freedom, between authority and industrial democracy;
between bargaining and co-operation; and between conflicting interests of the
individual, the group and the community―.
The National Commission on Labor (NCL) also emphasize on the same concept.
According to NCL, industrial relations affect not merely the interests of the two
participants- labor and management, but also the economic and social goals to which the
State addresses itself. To regulate these relations in socially desirable channels is a
function, which the State is in the best position to perform.
In fact, industrial relation encompasses all such factors that influence behavior of people
at work. A few such important factors are below:
Characters: It aims to study the role of workers unions and employers’ federations
officials, shop stewards, industrial relations officers/ manager, mediator/conciliators /
arbitrator, judges of labor court, tribunal etc.
2. Institution: It includes government, employers, trade unions, union federations or
associations, government bodies, labor courts, tribunals and other organizations which
have direct or indirect impact on the industrial relations systems.
Methods: Methods focus on collective bargaining, workers’ participation in the
industrial relations schemes, discipline procedure, grievance redressal machinery, dispute
settlements machinery working of closed shops, union reorganization, organizations of
protests through methods like revisions of existing rules, regulations, policies, procedures,
hearing of labor courts, tribunals etc.
Contents: It includes matter pertaining to employment conditions like pay, hours of
works, leave with wages, health, and safety disciplinary actions, lay-off, dismissals
retirements etc., laws relating to such activities, regulations governing labor welfare,
social security, industrial relations, issues concerning with workers’ participation in
management, collective bargaining, etc
