Download or read book Deakin and Morris Labour Law written by Zoe Adams and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 1321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deakin and Morris' Labour Law, a work cited as authoritative in the higher appellate courts of several jurisdictions, provides a comprehensive analysis of current British labour law which explains the role of different legal and extra-legal sources in its evolution, including collective bargaining, international labour standards, and human rights. The new edition, while following the broad pattern of previous ones, highlights important new developments in the content of the law, and in its wider social, economic and policy context. Thus the consequences of Brexit are considered along with the emerging effects of the Covid-19 crisis, the increasing digitisation of work, and the implications for policy of debates over the role of the law in constituting and regulating the labour market. The book examines in detail the law governing individual employment relations, with chapters covering the definition of the employment relationship; the sources and regulation of terms and conditions of employment; discipline and termination of employment; and equality of treatment. This is followed by an analysis of the elements of collective labour law, including the forms of collective organisation, freedom of association, employee representation, internal trade union government, and the law relating to industrial action. The seventh edition of Deakin and Morris' Labour Law is an essential text for students of law and of disciplines related to management and industrial relations, for barristers and solicitors working in the field of labour law, and for all those with a serious interest in the subject.

Download or read book Fundamental Labour Rights and the Constitution written by Giulia Frosecchi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-05 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book reflects on constitutional balancing from the perspective of fundamental labour rights. It draws on neo-constitutional theories and builds on the assumption that fundamental labour rights, understood as rights aimed at protecting workers during their working life or after retirement, are the normative expression of founding values and can be balanced against equally axiological constitutional principles. The balancing of constitutional labour rights can be conducted by various institutional actors and by applying different techniques. This volume reviews the theoretical debates on judicial balancing and the approaches adopted by the Court of Justice of the European Union and the European Court of Human Rights, to proceed with a closer assessment of Italian and Spanish judicial traditions. In particular, it addresses the main profiles of the case law of the Italian and Spanish Constitutional Courts on labour and social law reforms adopted in the aftermath of the 2008 crisis, where balancing takes place between labour rights and economic principles. The analysis is focused on four main aspects: the fundamental labour rights in the balance; the role of the Courts; the technique applied by the Judges; and the constitutional interests subject to the balancing. It ultimately reveals that the axiological nature of fundamental labour rights is preserved and the economic and financial contingencies confirm their factual character, although they are occasionally recognised a prominent role in the ratio decidendi. The book will be a valuable resource for academics and researchers working in the areas of labour law, social security law, legal theory and constitutional law.

Download or read book Constitutional Framework of European Labour Law in Italy France Germany Portugal and Spain written by Luís Gonçalves da Silva and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The challenges that labour law currently faces are well known. The emergence of new forms of work and the growing importance of technology in the age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution are important tests of the resilience of this field of law and its function: regulating the labour market. Therefore, it is becoming increasingly important to examine the fundamentals of labour law, especially how subordinate labour is addressed in various countries’ constitutions, in order to focus the analysis of the new phenomena affecting labour relations on their fundamental frameworks.In this context, this book puts forward an overarching framework that reflects how the Italian, German, French, Portuguese, and Spanish constitutions view labour in terms of both collective and individual relations – particularly the right to collective bargaining, the right to strikes and lock-outs, job security, and the right to remuneration – without losing sight of each Constitution's historical and political context.The aim of this book is therefore to provide an overview of the labour law frameworks in the constitutions of these legal systems and to show, by means of practical examples, how the law concretely implements them. Accordingly, it provides notes on the legal treatment of the topics analysed, serving as a practical guide for the study of these matters in the respective jurisdictions.This book will be of interest to all students and scholars of labour law looking for an overview of the topics covered in all five jurisdictions.

Download or read book Employment Privacy Law in the European Union written by Alberto Arufe Varela and published by Intersentia nv. This book was released on 2003 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information and knowledge have become crucial factors in modern labour markets. In this context, labour-management relations are characterised by an increasing and considerable flow of information. These developments are influenced by new management techniques, such as human resources management, in which the individual is identified as a key element in business success. Furthermore, there is the globalisation of the economy, the increase of international corporate mergers and the unfolding of the network society, which goes hand in hand with technological innovations. These developments not only multiplied the needs for information and the flow of data in employment relations, but also improved techniques of data processing revealing sensitive data of employees. This book deals with employment privacy law, a field of knowledge that increasingly gains influence in legal theory and daily practice. It concentrates on the legal regulation of general human resources data as well as sensitve data in the employment context. The book is developed within a comparative perspective, providing an overview and analysis of the Law of each Member State of the European Union in the field of study. It is completed by a comparative summary. Information and insights in this book will be of great value for practicing lawyers, human resources managers, academics, interest groups and policy makers. The specific issue of monitoring and surveillance in the workplace is covered in another highly recommended book.

Download or read book Foundations on community and comparative European and North American labor and social security law written by Jesús Martínez Girón and published by Netbiblo. This book was released on 2007 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este manual universitario expone con toda claridad, pero también con todo rigor académico, el conjunto de «Fuentes», «Instituciones» y «Derechos, Libertades y Principios», integrados en un curso académico ?a explicar a lo largo de un cuatrimestre? sobre dos grandes áreas temáticas. De un lado, el Derecho de la Unión Europea, ad extra y ad intra, del Trabajo y de la Seguridad Social. De otro lado, el Derecho comparado del Trabajo y de la Seguridad Social ?abordado desde un punto de vista español, pero también cosmopolita? alemán, británico, francés, italiano, portugués y, por último, norteamericano. Su cuidada tipografía, con tres niveles de conocimiento distintos marcados por tres tamaños distintos de letra, pretende separar en el texto lo que el alumno universitario realmente debe conocer y estudiar, desgajando de este nivel de conocimiento primordial otros temas que interesan más inmediatamente al profesorado en formación o a los profesionales implicados en la llevanza de asuntos jurídicos laborales y de Seguridad Social (jueces, abogados, graduados sociales, sindicalistas, etc.). Esta segmentación de niveles de conocimiento lo convierte en una herramienta docente útil no sólo en las Facultades de Derecho, sino también en otros centros universitarios distintos (Escuelas Universitarias de Relaciones Laborales, Escuelas Universitarias de Estudios Empresariales, Facultades de Administración y Dirección de Empresas, etc.) en los que también se imparten estudios oficiales de postgrado, y señaladamente, Masters y Doctorado.

Download or read book Application of Foreign Law written by Carlos Esplugues Mota and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-03-30 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last decade Europe has undertaken an active and broad process of harmonisation of choice-of-law rules within the EU. However, this drastic movement towards a harmonised system has so far left aside a highly relevant issue: the application by judicial and non-judicial authorities of the foreign law. In full contrast to the little attention so far paid to it in the EU, this issue is said to be the crux of the conflict of laws. It violates legal certainty and contradicts the objective of ensuring full access to justice to all European citizens within the EU. This book provides a comparative study of the existing situation in all EU member states and drafts some basic principles for a future European instrument. It will become a highly useful tool for lawyers, judges, notaries, land registries, academics, prosecutors etc.

Download or read book Punishment and Culture written by María José Falcón y Tella and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2006-05-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume critically explores the basis and the goal of punishment from the standpoint of the right to punish. Studies and works dedicated to punishment are scarce compared to those dedicated to Crime Theory or some aspect thereof. The book reviews the main doctrines that have dealt with the theme of punishment from Antiquity to the present, not limiting itself to the legal-philosophical sphere but also analyzing the contributions from other social sciences. It then explores how these are reflected in the sphere of Positive Law. Moving from the most abstract and general to the most concrete and specific, various themes relating to the concept of punishment are distinguished. These themes are not exactly equivalent but are, nevertheless, often confused with one another. They are: Punishment; Punitive Practice; Sentence and Penalty. Of these the third – Sentence, which is almost the least generic concept dealt with, having to do with that area of law which basically constitutes Criminal Law – forms the central part of the work. In this section, via a dual structure, the distinction is made between punishments and deterrents, as the prime types of punitive practice, with a distinct historical tradition, diverse bases and functions, around which different sorts of theories and schools have developed. The book ends with a series of critical conclusions as to what, in the opinion of the authors, should be a correct conception of punishment.
