Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transposition of the EU information and consultation Directive means that the UK now has, for the first time, a general statutory framework giving employees the right to insist on being informed and consulted by their employers on a range of key business, employment and restructuring issues. This article assesses the significance of the Information and Consultation of Employees Regulations 2004 in the light of the UK`s previous approaches to the regulation of employee consultation and in terms of potential patterns of implementation. A key aspect of the government`s legislative strategy has been to maximise employers` flexibility of response to the Regulations, enabling the negotiation of organisation-specific agreements and, controversially, providing scope for reliance on direct rather than representative-based forms of information and consultation. The article examines the options open to employers, employees and trade unions under the Regulations and their possible take-up, drawing on the experience of analogous UK legislation, including that on European Works Councils and trade union recognition.

Book excerpt: The practice of consultation between senior managers and employee representatives has a long history in British employment relations yet has often been overshadowed by discussions on collective bargaining. In the last few decades, the importance of consultation has been elevated by two main trends: the decline in trade union membership and the retreat from collective bargaining in the private sector on the one hand, with the result that consultation may be the only form of collective employee voice available; and the programme of legislative support for consultation by the European Union since the 1970s on the other. The book charts the meaning and development of consultation in the twentieth century and explores the justifications for the practice. It shows how EU intervention to promote consultation evolved and changed, paying particular attention to the adoption of the Information and Consultation of Employees (ICE) Regulations, which became fully operational in enterprises with 50 or more employees in 2008. Analysing the half-hearted response to EU consultation initiatives by the social partners in Britain, it provides a critical assessment of successive UK governments' handling of the issue. Drawing on the authors' empirical research in twenty-five organizations, the book closely examines the take-up and impact of consultation regulations, and explores the processes involved in effective consultation. Consultation at Work looks at the dynamics of consultation and draws a contrast between 'active' consultation of the type envisaged by the EU, and more limited consultation used as a means of communication. Discussing the UK experience in comparative perspectives, it asks what has to happen for the take-up of consultation to improve and suggests the changes that should be made to the EU Directive and UK ICE Regulations.

Book Synopsis The Information and Consultation of Employees (ICE) Directive by : Tony Dobbins
Download or read book The Information and Consultation of Employees (ICE) Directive written by Tony Dobbins and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This working paper explores the transposing of the EU Information and Consultation of Employees (ICE) Directive in the Liberal Market Economies of the Republic of Ireland (ROI) and Northern Ireland (NI) by considering how employers and employees have responded to national information and consultation regulations. We outline the analytical concept of 'regulatory space' and assess the impact of ICE Regulations in both ROI and NI jurisdictions in 4 cross-border case study organizations. The research concludes that an analytical framework to advance the concept of 'regulatory space' enables a refined assessment of employer and employee responses to employee voice regulation. Employer occupancy of regulatory space for voice is explained in part by a reassessment of the regulatory function of the State, from one of employee to employer protection. The UK and Irish governments both closely circumscribed the parameters of the national ICE Regulations to limit encroachment on the terrain of managerial prerogative. Ambivalence of national unions towards contesting the space opened by the ICE Directive also aids employers in occupying space for voice. The case evidence suggests that, consequently, employers largely dominate regulatory trajectories for workplace voice, and patterns of regulatory space for voice varied across workplaces. Though employees and their representatives were marginalized for the most part, voice remains a contested terrain.

Download or read book Promoting Effective Consultation? Assessing the Impact of the ICE Regulations written by Mark Hall and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on evidence from longitudinal case studies in 25 organizations, this article examines whether information and consultation (I&C) bodies established in the context of the UK's Information and Consultation of Employees Regulations 2004 have been the vehicle for effective consultation, based on objective criteria. Assessed against the regulations' default provisions that require I&C concerning strategic business issues and major organizational change, a substantial minority of participating organizations were categorized as 'active consulters', while a majority were 'communicators'. The differing trajectories of I&C primarily reflected internal organizational dynamics, particularly management's approach to consultation. Beyond providing the catalyst for managerial moves to introduce I&C, the influence of the statutory framework proved largely peripheral.

Book Synopsis A Cool Response to the Ice Regulations? Employer and Trade Union Approaches to the New Legal Framework for Information and Consultation by : Mark Hall
Download or read book A Cool Response to the Ice Regulations? Employer and Trade Union Approaches to the New Legal Framework for Information and Consultation written by Mark Hall and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One year on from the introduction of the Information and Consultation of Employees Regulations, this article reviews the emerging patterns of implementation in the light of the legislations 'reflexive design'. The available evidence suggests considerable employer-led activity in terms of reviewing, modifying and introducing information and consultation arrangements but a relative paucity of formal 'pre-existing agreements', despite the protection they offer against the Regulations statutory procedures being invoked by employees. This picture is consistent with a risk assessment rather than a compliance approach by management, facilitated by union ambivalence towards the legislation and low use of its provisions by employees.
Book Synopsis The Implementation of Information and Consultation of Employees Regulations in Great Britain by : Sofoklis Sarvanidis
Download or read book The Implementation of Information and Consultation of Employees Regulations in Great Britain written by Sofoklis Sarvanidis and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis focuses on the impact of the EU Directive (2002/14/EC), which was incorporated into UK employment law, with its phased implementation starting on 6th April 2005. The empirical evidence is based on a survey and predominantly on case-study research that involved interviews with: managers, employees and trade union representatives, together with the collection of relevant documentary evidence. The empirical findings, especially for the non-unionised sector, indicate that the reflexive nature of the Information and Consultation of Employees (ICE) Regulations has mainly stimulated the development of organisation-specific or tailor-made information and consultation arrangements, which minimally comply with the legislative provisions. Moreover, the development of such arrangements is primarily based on the ad hoc momentum that is generated by business pressures (i.e. collective redundancies, transfer of undertakings etc) and can be viewed as reflecting the conceptual framework of legislatively prompted voluntarism. The ICE Directive is aimed at bringing a consistency to the establishment of basic and standard information and consultation arrangements across the workplaces in Great Britain. Subsequently, it should promote the harmonisation of employee participation practices amongst the UK and other EU countries, as it has the goal of ensuring that there is a minimum floor of rights in relation to information sharing and consultation with employees. Nevertheless, the Europeanisation of British industrial relations cannot instantly take place through the adoption of such EU directives. With regard to this research endeavour, it emerges that the extant national idiosyncrasies cannot be substantially altered, whilst business pressures and employers? goodwill continue to be key drivers in the development of employee participation and consultation arrangements in Great Britain, albeit within the newly adopted legislative and statutory framework.

Download or read book Control of Workplace Hazardous Substances; National Model Regulations for the Control of Workplace Hazardous Substances written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two principal components of the national model regulations are: 1. information provisions, and 2. assessment and control provisions. The information provisions address the delivery of specific information, eg. labels and material safety data sheets, that the supplier of a workplace substance has to provide through the employer to employees. These provisions also ensure that employee representatives, relevant public authorities and emergency services are also provided with access to relevant information. The assessment and control provisions require employers to identify hazardous substances in the workplace, make an assessment of those hazards which arise out of the work activity and then take appropriate action. The national model regulations require assessments to be done in consultation with employees and employee representatives so that the assessment is tailored to each workplace and appropriate controls are put in place. 1994.

Book Synopsis European Labour Law by : Brian Bercusson
Download or read book European Labour Law written by Brian Bercusson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-09 with total page 765 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European Labour Law explores how individual European national legal systems, in symbiosis with the European Union, produce a transnational labour law system that is distinct and genuinely European in character. Professor Brian Bercusson describes the evolution of this system, its national, transnational and global contexts and its institutional and substantive structures. The collective industrial-relations dimension of employment is examined, and the labour law of the EU as manifested in, for example, European works councils is analysed. Important subjects which have traditionally received little attention in some European labour law systems are covered, for example, the fragmentation of the workforce into atypical forms of employment. Attention is also given to the enforcement of European labour law through administrative or judicial mechanisms and the European social dialogue at intersectoral and sectoral levels. This new edition has been extensively updated, as the EU's influence on this area of social policy continues to grow.

This book was released on 2007-06-27 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In its Green Paper about the need for labour market reform, the European Commission argued that the increasing diversity of 21st century working relationships means that existing labour law is no longer adequate. This report brings together the evidence from a wide range f experts and representative bodies about these issues as they affect the UK labour market. It finds that the evidence does not support the Commission. The consensus is that the relatively light regulation of the UK labour market is advantageous and that problems of social disadvantage and structural unemployment are better addressed by measures aimed at tackling poor skills and social inequality rather than changing labour law. The report therefore recommends that efforts at EU level should focus on the promotion and sharing of good practice, rather than the introduction of new legislation.
Book Synopsis Industrial Relations by : Trevor Colling
Download or read book Industrial Relations written by Trevor Colling and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-09-07 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised edition of Industrial Relations: Theory and Practice follows the approach established successfully in preceding volumes edited by Paul Edwards. The focus is on Britain after a decade of public policy which has once again altered the terrain on which employment relations develop. Government has attempted to balance flexibility with fairness, preserving light-touch regulation whilst introducing rights to minimum wages and to employee representation in the workplace. Yet this is an open economy, conditioned significantly by developing patterns of international trade and by European Union policy initiatives. This interaction of domestic and cross-national influences in analysis of changes in employment relations runs throughout the volume.
