Reconstructing New Zealand's Labour Law
Author: Gordon Anderson
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780864736574
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"The history of labour law is the story of workers struggling to gain a voice in and control over their economic security. Over the last 40 years, New Zealand's labour law and industrial relations systems have been in a state of flux, during which worker rights have been consistently eroded. The Employment Contracts Act 1991 marked an ideological break from a century-long tradition of pluralist labour legislation and was concerned primarily with restructuring the labour market to individualise employment relationships and boost managerial control. The Employment Relations Act 2000 may have partially restored the right to effective collective bargaining, but ultimately it is a system of self-help rather than one of state dependency, and marks a new, as yet unfinished, phase in labour regulation. This book provides an overview of the changing structures of labour law that culminated in the Employment Relations Act 2000, and an analysis of the current state of the law as it affects areas such as the contract of employment, collective bargaining, security of employment and trade unions. It includes a discussion of current tensions that are likely to impact on the development of the law, and the structure of employment and industrial relations, in the future"--Back cover.

Precarity
Author: Shioh Groot
Publisher: Massey University Press
ISBN: 0994141521
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Leading UK economist Guy Standing has referred to the precariat as a class-in-the-making. The Precariat are our fellow citizens — be they poor, elderly, disabled, homeless, estranged from their cultural communities, refugees, engaged in casual work — who lead lives of uncertainty, dependency, powerlessness, perilousness and insufficiency. They are the outcome of the gradual dismantling of the welfare state and the withering of union representation. They are also the victims of the changing nature of work. This important book moves beyond the world of labour to identify and illustrate other forms of precarity in New Zealand, including the lack of opportunities for cultural expression and the struggle to be safe. It focuses on New Zealand's emerging class, not to further vilify it but rather to place its members' lived experience in plain sight. As the editors say, &‘It is time that all New Zealanders understood the reality of what many of our citizens endure in the struggle to make ends meet and live dignified lives.'

Publisher: Scarecrow Press
ISBN: 9780810826786
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
One of the major purposes of this book is to help clarify the term "industrial relations" and thus to assist meaningful discussion about the strengths and deficiencies of the body of thought to which it refers. The editors' premise is that industrial relations is a multinational field whose disciples should be seeking principles that apply over the broadest span of time and space. Contributors include Roy J. Adams, Jack Barbash, Joel Cutcher-Gershenfeld, Braham Dabscheck, John Godard, Steve M. Hills, Kevin Hince, Thomas Kochan, Viateur Larouche and Michel Audet, Craig R. Littler, Noah M. Meltz, Michael Poole, Paula Voos, and Hoyt Wheeler, with an introduction by Roy J. Adams.
