Review
"The thematic approach makes for engaging discussion and focused reading that will take students into some really key issues, in depth, and provoke more critical reflection."--Dr Stephen J. Perkins, Course leader in International HRM, London Metropolitan University
"The coverage of issues is fulsome, rigorous, and critical ... takes a wider than usual perspective on issues than the standard fare."--Professor Gregor Gall, Professor of Industrial Relations and Director of the Centre for Research in Employment Studies, University of Hertfordshire
"Easily accessible, well written, up-to-date references, comprehensive coverage of the topic. It takes a broader perspective to employment relations, looking at the power relations behind them, and makes a refreshing change from the management orientation in most HRM / employee relations texts. Very suitable as an introductory text."--Dr Karen Williams, School of Business and Economics, Swansea University
"Well written and researched ... a good blend of theory, context, and topicality."--Mike Marshall, Department of Economics, University of East London
Product Description
Contemporary Employment Relations: a Critical Introduction offers an original, accessible, and critical approach to understanding employment relations. Based on up-to-date research studies, it considers recent developments in employment relations, defined as the way in which employment relationships are regulated, experienced, and contested. A thematic approach to the subject helps to demonstrate the contemporary relevance of employment relations, enabling students to develop an appropriate level of knowledge and understanding of this key area of economic, social, and political life. Among the topics covered by the book are: * the implications of globalization for employment relations * the role of the European Union * the significance of 'family-friendly' and 'work-life balance' policies * the nature of employment relations in non-union firms * the dynamics of workplace partnership * the impact of minimum wage and working time legislation * the causes and effects of work intensification. Online Resource Centre For lecturers: PowerPoint slides; case study guide; guide to end-of-chapter qustions; guide to web pages. For students: annotated web links; updates to legislation, policy and research; additional case studies; and a glossary of key terms.
