Opis

First published in 1991, this book investigates not only the processes of industrial relations themselves but also the climate in which they work. As we all as studying union behaviour, it views the topic from the wider perspective of human resource management and integrates theories of industrial relations and organizational analysis. The extensive empirical evidence presented, which draws on manufacturing and service industries in Canada, is used to examine such areas as cooperation between union and management, employee perceptions and corporate culture.
