Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The leading academic authorities contributing to this book have been involved in major studies carried out for international organisations, individual governments, and national trades' union organisations; in Vulnerable Workers they consider the growth of job insecurity, the prevalence of flexible or temporary work, and the emergence of precarious forms of self-employment. They look at the new market economies of post-communist Eastern Europe and China, where economic development may occur at the expense of workers' lives and health; 'misclassification' by employers of workers as 'contractors', denying them access to rights; and the plight of migrant, transient and 'invisible' workers. The impact of supply chain business strategies on the most vulnerable workers; and on the complex relationships between levels of job security and the presence of different kinds of risks are similarly assessed. The contributors also propose responses to the challenges they highlight. The role of employee representatives is examined, together with the potential to enhance worker capability through organisational change. New legislative approaches, and changes to traditional compensation and social security systems are considered. Academics and researchers, policy makers, regulators, trades unionists and occupational health professionals - and wise employers - will all find a use for this book.

Book excerpt: In order to better protect the more than 217 million workers in the European Union (EU) from work-related accidents and diseases, in 2014 the European Commission adopted the Strategic Framework on Health and Safety at Work 2014-2020, which identifies key challenges and strategic objectives for health and safety at work. The Strategic Framework aims to ensure that the EU continues to play a leading role in the promotion of high standards for working conditions, to improve implementation of existing safety and health rules, in particular by enhancing the capacity of micro- and small enterprises to implement effective and efficient risk prevention strategies and to improve the prevention of work-related diseases by tackling new and emerging risks, without neglecting existing risks. This Framework proposes to address these challenges with a range of actions, including the improvement of statistical data collection to generate better evidence and to make more appropriate use of the data, as well as further improvements in monitoring tools. As part of a series of secondary analyses of data from the second European Survey of Enterprises on New and Emerging Risks (ESENER-2), the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA) commissioned a study to combine data from the survey with data from two other major European surveys - the LFS 2013 ad hoc module on accidents at work and other work-related health problems, and the 6th European Working Conditions Survey - in one joint analysis. The aim was to provide answers to relevant questions in the area of occupational safety and health (OSH) risk management that could not be answered by analysing the individual datasets in isolation, such as 'When OSH risks are managed at the enterprise level, do employees perceive that their exposure to OSH risk is reduced or lower?' and 'What about their work-related health outcomes?'. To promote risk management, it is important to know which factors influence OSH risk management; for instance whether risk management is impacted by the level of exposure of employees to work-related risks, both general and specific, whether the incidence of health problems gives impetus to the decision to manage OSH risks, and whether drivers of and barriers to OSH risk management - such as management commitment, employee participation or a lack of resources - are also important factors for consideration. This knowledge may be relevant to policy-makers, employer and employee representatives, and OSH professionals, so that all of them can further encourage occupational risk management.

Download or read book EU Employment Law written by Jeff Kenner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2002-12-23 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the evolution of European Union employment law and social policy from its essentially economic origins in the Treaty of Rome through to the emerging themes post-Amsterdam: co-ordination of national employment policies,modernisation of social laws and combating discrimination. Each stage of development of Community employment law and social policy is analysed in depth to give a sense of perspective to this fast changing field. As the European Union seeks to meet the challenges of globalisation the need to develop social policy as a productive factor has come to the fore. The author explains how the social, economic and employment imperatives of European integration have always been intertwined and how the emergence of Community employment law from its hitherto twilight existence is best understood through an examination of consistent strands of policy development.
