About this ebook
How have employment relations evolved over the last decade? And how did workplaces and employees fare in the face of the longest recession in living memory?
Employment Relations in the Shadow of Recession examines the state of British employment relations in 2011, how this has changed since 2004, and the role the recession played in shaping employees' experiences of work. It draws on findings from the 2011 Workplace Employment Relations Study, comparing these with the results of the previous study conducted in 2004. These surveys each collecting responses from around 2,500 workplace managers, 1,000 employee representatives and over 20,000 employees provide the most comprehensive portrait available of workplace employment relations in Britain.
The book provides an in-depth analysis of the changes made to employment practices through the recession and of the impact that the economic downturn had on the shape and character of the employment relationship.
