PDF Social Reconstructions of the World Automobile Industry: Competition, Power and Industrial Flexibility Frederic C. Deyo (eds.) digsell https://lnkd.in/exkTARsM This book assesses the varying ways in which automobile assemblers in several countries of East and Southeast Asia, Europe and the Americas have sought to enhance their efficiency and flexibility in response to heightened global competition during the 1980s and early 1990s. It then explores the implications of such managerial strategies for workers and trade unions, and the responses of unions in seeking to preserve or enhance worker welfare and voice under industrial restructuring. https://lnkd.in/e9f5HgSi

A planning policy quiz.... 4 quotes about planning. One each from the Conservatives manifesto from 2001 and 2024 and the Labour manifesto 2001 and 2024.... there appears to be a theme. It is of course unfair to judge an entire manifesto on one quote, but it does feel as though parties of all colours have been talking about reforming planning, building more houses - all on brownbelt for years without saying exactly how they will do it. Is this fair? #PropTech

Union Organizing and the Cemex Decision -- There's a question of whether a good faith doubt is needed to file an RM Petition under the Cemex decision when a union demands voluntary recognition. Quoting from the decision, "our standard does not rely on an employer’s subjective “good-faith doubt” of a union’s majority status. In order to invoke the Board’s election machinery in response to a union’s demand for bargaining, an employer will not need to prove a good-faith doubt of the union’s majority status, nor will the General Counsel have to prove a lack of good-faith doubt." However, employers need to be aware that the RM Petition is different from RM or RM Petitions. Be prepared to complete and file such petitions. Up to this time, few RM petitions have been filed. Now, more will be filed, and employers need experienced labor attorneys to navigate through the RM petition process. #union #employment @humanresources

My top three tips for unionizing your workplace. 1. It's dangerous to go it alone! Bring plenty of co-workers with you on the journey towards unionizing. 2. Learn the bylaws of your trade union. It helps massively in forming a club as well as maintaining it! 3. Encourage every union member to go through the introductory course offered by most Swedish unions. Bonus round tip: Your employers word means zero, zilch, null. Get everything you are ever promised on paper. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/dyDqx8tY

Further Wave of Industrial Relations Legislative change by the government is likely🏛 Given the government's recent rhetoric about eliminating non-compete provisions in employment contracts, more industrial reforms are likely. It's difficult to predict precisely what the changes will be. As we've seen in getting the legislative changes through the Senate, deals have been made, i.e., The Greens obtained the “right to disconnect” in exchange for their support recently. The changes will align with Labour's objectives of increasing real wages and permanent forms of employment, targeted at increasing union membership. Deals were made, with the Senate cross benches to get the recent changes through the Senate and further changes from left field are possible.

Combination Acts of 1799 and 1800 aimed at completely eradicating the early trade unions. Anti-union Terror Penalties for defying the Combination Acts not only included imprisonment and hard labour, but also public floggings and even deportation. The compositors on The Times newspaper for instance, were prosecuted for organising a trade union in 1810. In this case, they were arrested and sentenced to imprisonment, with terms varying from nine months to two years. Sir John Sylvester – “Bloody Black Jack” – in sentencing the compositors denounced them for “a most wicked conspiracy” to injure “the very employers who gave you bread”! No doubt, Rupert Murdoch, today’s owner of The Times, who sacked 6,000 trade unionists, would agree whole-heartedly with these early sentiments. The employers boasted of the success of the Combination Acts in keeping the working class in submission. On 14 August 1818, Henry Hobhouse wrote a note to MajorGeneral Sir John Byng: Matters have certainly been better managed at Stockport than at Manchester. The masters have been more firm, and the convictions under the Combination Act have done great service. The doctrine I have inculcated is that the first object is to show to the workmen that the law is strong enough, if it be but properly enforced, but this principle has not been acted upon in Manchester where the manufacturer seems to rely more on your sword than on any other weapon…” This reign of state terror unleashed by the ruling class proved to be the midwife of revolutionary trade unionism. Driven underground, these trade unions became conspiratorial bodies that tightly bound their members together through secret oaths and initiation ceremonies. The Society of Ironfounders, established in 1810, met under the cover of darkness on the moors in the Midlands area. Iron discipline was enforced within the organisation in order to keep spies and agent provocateurs out of its ranks. The London tailors had all but a military system. “Their orders come from the Executive and are always obeyed,” stated a contemporary. Excerpt from: "In the Cause of Labour: A History of British Trade Unionism" by Rob Sewell.
