Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can today's workforce keep pace with an increasingly competitive global economy? As new technologies rapidly transform the workplace, employee requirements are changing and workers must adapt to different working conditions. This volume compares new evidence on the returns from worker training in the United States, Germany, France, Britain, Japan, Norway, and the Netherlands. The authors focus on Germany's widespread, formal apprenticeship programs; the U.S. system of learning-by-doing; Japan's low employee turnover and extensive company training; and Britain's government-led and school-based training schemes. The evidence shows that, overall, training in the workplace is more effective than training in schools. Moreover, even when U.S. firms spend as much on training as other countries do, their employees may still be less skilled than workers in Europe or Japan. Training and the Private Sector points to training programs in Germany, Japan, and other developed countries as models for creating a workforce in the United States that can compete more successfully in today's economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why our workplaces are authoritarian private governments—and why we can’t see it One in four American workers says their workplace is a “dictatorship.” Yet that number almost certainly would be higher if we recognized employers for what they are—private governments with sweeping authoritarian power over our lives. Many employers minutely regulate workers’ speech, clothing, and manners on the job, and employers often extend their authority to the off-duty lives of workers, who can be fired for their political speech, recreational activities, diet, and almost anything else employers care to govern. In this compelling book, Elizabeth Anderson examines why, despite all this, we continue to talk as if free markets make workers free, and she proposes a better way to think about the workplace, opening up space for discovering how workers can enjoy real freedom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The re-emergence of private enterprises is one of the most important factors in China's recent economic development. They will play a key role in maintaining China's high growth rate and honouring its commitments to the WTO. Despite this they face obstacles to growth, including borrowing restrictions, high taxes, ineffective legal protection and lack of technical and information support. The authors in this book discuss these obstacles and propose measures for improving private enterprise development. They consider how private enterprises can help China mitigate its macroeconomic problems, such as unemployment, income inequality, financial disintermediation and cyclical boom and bust. Finally they examine the lessons to be learnt from other countries in promoting privatization.

This book was released on 2023-03-29 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2015 in the subject Law - Civil / Private / Industrial / Labour, grade: A, University of Buea, language: English, abstract: The protection of workers from work-related accidents and diseases is a socio-economic right recognized and preserved by a variety of international and national human rights and industrial law instruments. The work exams the nature of work-related hazards from both the statutory and common law perspectives. In this vein, it critically examines the concepts of industrial accidents, occupational diseases, and personal injury for the purpose of protection. It is argued that damning consequences are bound to be felt by the worker and his dependents, the employer and the society at large, if workers are not protected from the risk of accidents and diseases inherent in their jobs. The research also discussed the common law defenses used by employers to escape liability towards injured workers; vital amongst which is the defense of volunti non fit injuria. The research there calls for the non-applicability of the said doctrine/defense within the employer/employee relationship. The research further examines the statutory and on law remedies available to worker who get injured or contract a disease while at work.
