From Collective Bargaining to Collective Begging
Author: Dominic Wells (Writer on collective bargaining)
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Collective bargaining
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
In 1959 Wisconsin became the first state to expand collective bargaining rights to public employees. In the decades that followed, other states also adopted policies that expanded collective bargaining rights to public employees and encouraged unionization. In recent years, states have adopted policies that greatly limit these rights. Although unionization has long been the focus of attention by historians, economists, political scientists, and sociologists, scholars focus their work on the causes and consequences of unionization. This dissertation takes a different approach. It identifies the conditions under which state-level policymakers adopt policies that expand or restrict collective bargaining rights for public employees. Using over five decades of state-level data, quantitative chapters identify the economic, political, and cultural factors that led states to expand and restrict collective bargaining rights. In addition to quantitative work, two case studies of highly-publicized state-level efforts to restrict collective bargaining rights in the public sector, Senate Bill 5 in Ohio and Act 10 in Wisconsin, are examined to determine how stakeholders and policy entrepreneurs in both states attempted to construct a narrative to shape voters' understanding of the issue. The findings of this dissertation show that the politics of expanding rights are different from the politics of restricting them. While the expansion of collective bargaining rights to public employees was bi-partisan, efforts to restrict those rights were driven by Republican policymakers. Additionally, the findings of this dissertation show that the expansion of rights diffused by geographic region. Analysis of interview data and newspaper articles from the case studies show that stakeholders and policy entrepreneurs form context specific policy narratives in an attempt to influence policy outcomes. The findings have serious implications for policymakers and labor unions in the United States.

Collective Agreements
Author: Susan Hayter
Publisher:
ISBN: 9789221316091
Category : Collective labor agreements
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Collective bargaining involves a process of negotiation between one or more unions and an employer or employers' organisation(s). The outcome is a collective agreement that defines terms of employment - typically wages, working hours and in-work benefits. The agreement affords labour protection: minimum wages, regular earnings; limits on working hours and predictable work schedules; safe working environments; parental leave and sick leave; and a fair share in the benefits of increased productivity. The International Labour Organization (ILO) Collective Agreements Recommendation 1951 (No. 91) considers, where appropriate and having regard to national practice, that measures should be taken to extend the application of all or some provisions of a collective agreement to all employers and workers included wthin the domain of the agreement. The extension of a collective agreement generalises the terms and conditions of employment, agreed between organised firms and workers, represented through their association(s) and union(s), to the non-organised firms within a sector, occupation or territory. The collection of chapters in this volume are about the extension of collective agreements as an act of public policy.
