The International Encyclopaedia for Labour Law and Industrial Relations
is designed to provide information to the international business and labour
relations communities; to facilitate comparative research in the field; and to
contribute to the growing harmonization of labour law and standards worldwide.
With over 60 detailed country-by-country monographs and eight in-depth
international monographs - and with more in preparation - as well as five
volumes of case law and five volumes of reprinted legislation, it is by far
the most comprehensive work of its kind in existence.
Each national monograph, written by one or more experts in the field from the
country under discussion, consists of introductory material including vital
statistics, political system, and social values; a historical background note.
sources of the state's labour law; and the traditional role of its
institutions in industrial relations. Both individual and collective labour
relations are covered. International monographs deal with standards set by
prominent international organizations such as the Arab Labour Organization,
the Council of Europe, the International Labour Organization, the European
Community and the OECD, as well as the role of labour law in the work of
significant regional organizations.
The work offers factual information and practical insight into both the
technical legal and day-to-day aspects of labour relations. It also covers
developing trends in the relationship between management and labour. As a
result of its breadth of coverage and clear, logical format, the reader gains
access to a broad base of information in a single, easy-to-use resource.
