Description:
This is the eBook of the printed book and may not include any media, website
access codes, or print supplements that may come packaged with the bound
book. Labour Relations, Fifth edition, has been written to provide a practical text
for labour relations, industrial relations and collective bargaining courses. Labour
relations is framed within a four-phased dynamic process: (i) a discontented
workforce looking for an external advocate; (ii) union organizing and certification;
(iii) collective bargaining; and (iv) contract administration. The book also
recognizes the importance of key actors in this process: employers, unions and
governments, all of whom are influenced by a challenging external environment.
Globalization, demographics, economic cycles, technological innovation, societal
views and other environmental factors pose threats and opportunities for these
key actors
