This Concise Introduction illuminates the conflict, cooperation and complex issues surrounding employment relations. Richard Hyman, a leading expert in the field, clearly explains how the reality of employment interactions and the academic understanding of the subject have been transformed by globalisation, neoliberalism and financialisation.
Key Features:
Focuses on those involved in the governance of labour, from employers to trade unions
Synthesises several decades of research to help the reader understand the growth of precarious work
Critically discusses contemporary challenges, including the aftereffects of COVID-19 and the climate crisis
The Concise Introduction to Employment Relations is beneficial to students focusing on human resources, industrial relations, economics and employment studies. Those studying sociology and organisational behaviour will also find it valuable.
