    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    The `New Industrial Relations' thesis maintains that fundamental change has occurred in British industrial relations sufficient to warrant a re-evaluation of the workplace relationship. In this book leading figures in the field review the assumptions of this argument and the evidence. Topics include the development of HRM policies; employment legislation; changes in union membership, structures and activity; Japanization; changes in the public sector.

    Long description:

    Industrial relations have undergone significant and extensive change over the last fifteen years. The combined impact of government legislation, international competition, and organizational restructuring has affected union organization and membership; the scope and content of collective bargaining; and the organization, objectives and nature of work.

    The extent of these changes raises important questions about industrial relations and human resource management in contemporary Britain and demands fresh analysis.

    In Contemporary Industrial Relations leading authorities address these issues with a detailed and comprehensive analysis of current trends. Topics covered include:

    HRM and the New Industrial Relations
    The Role of the State
    Trade Union Law
    Industrial Relations and Economic Performance
    Public Sector Unionism
    Union Recognition
    The New Unionism
    Japanization

    The contributors are: Ian Beardwell; David Guest and Kim Hoque; Ian Clark; Stephen Dunn and David Metcalf; Peter Nolan; Rachel Bailey; Tim Claydon; Ed Heery; and David Grant.

    The book will be vital reading for students, researchers and HR professionals wanting to get to grips with current changes in the workplace.

    A stimulating and refreshingly different book.
