Institutions at Work

WORK2226

This unit of study examines the development and operation of institutions formed to represent the different interests of individuals and groups in the arena of work and employment. It describes the historical development of organisations representing the interests of labour, both across and within the workforce. It identifies the manner in which business groups have represented their interest around issues of work and labour regulation. Finally it examines how these representative institutions have formed and dissolved coalitions of support around particular labour market issues such as wages, labour market participation and employee representation.
