Description

This book examines the dynamics of employee relations in the context of Britain in the 1980s. It makes a contribution to the debates concerning the changing nature of industrial relations, its impact upon the role of trade union organization in traditionally well-organized workplaces, the extent to which managements have well-conceived strategies for the control of labour and the link between the product market environment and patterns of employee relations management. The book is intended to be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students on courses in industrial relations, personnel and human resource management, industrial sociology and organizational behaviour. It will also be of interest to practitioners in these fields.
