"The enlargement of the EU in 2004 and 2007 has led to greatly increased free movement of workers from 'new' to 'old' Member States. The unprecedented scale of this migration has had a profound impact on the regulation of labour law in Europe. This book compares the ways trade unions have responded to the effects of the enlargements, and in particular to the increased migration of workers across borders. It undertakes a contextualised comparison of trade union responses in Austria, Germany, Ireland, Sweden and the UK and examines the relationship between trade unions and labour law at a national and European level. This analysis indicates the kinds of laws that would benefit trade unions at a national and European level. Finally, the book illustrates how trade unions can use law to better respond to changing regulatory and opportunity structures"--

"The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States of America. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second Session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First Session, enacted between January 2, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office"--Preface.

The presence of migrant workers has become a central feature of labour markets in highly developed countries. The International Labour Organisation estimates that in 2013 there were 112 million resident migrant workers in the 58 highest-income countries, who made up 16% of the workforce. Non-resident workers have also increasingly become part of the labour available for employment in other states, often on a temporary basis. This work takes a thematic and comparative approach to examine the profound implications of contemporary labour migration for employment law regimes in highly developed countries. In so doing, it aims to promote greater recognition of labour migration-related questions, and of the interests of migrant workers, within employment law scholarship. The work comprises original analyses by leading scholars of migration and employment law at the European Union level, and in Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States. The specific position of migrant workers is addressed, for example as regards equality of treatment, or the position in employment law of migrant workers without a right to work. The work also explores the effects of migration levels and patterns upon general employment law – including the law relating to collective bargaining, and remedies against exploitation.

This publication brings together the most important European and international regulation in the area of labour law. It includes regulations from, among others, the European Union, the Council of Europe and the International Labour Organisation. The selected regulations are decisive to some extent for the content of the EU member states' national labour law or contain rules on the conflict of laws and jurisdiction law (private international law). Because of the growing international influences on national individual and collective labour law, it is hardly possible to be acquainted with the labour law of the different European countries without some knowledge of European (labour) law. In addition, an increasing number of employees are working 'across the border', for example in the context of secondment (posting of workers), which raises questions about the law that applies to their employment contract. This law book is therefore useful not only for the lawyer who is primarily engaged in European labour law, but also for the lawyer who is engaged in 'national' labour law practice. This publication is also intended for university education and higher professional education. The selection is preceded by an introduction. This introduction provides a brief overview of the different sources of European labour law, outlines the main points of European Union law and briefly describes the eleven sections which comprise the volume.

The labour laws of European democracies all underwent major transformations in the seven decades after the Second World War. Following reconstruction, these laws became an essential element in the building of welfare states; in the 1980s and 1990s they were the target of neo-liberal deregulation; and at the beginning of the 21st century new 'flexible' labour laws have attempted to integrate economic and social policy. This book, a sequel to 'The Making of Labour Law in Europe- A Comparative Study of Nine Countries up to 1945' (ed. B Hepple), compares the similarities and differences in the way.

For centuries, Europe consisted of numerous sovereign nations, each with its own legal system. However, in recent decades, Europe has slowly emerged as a single power alongside other superpowers, such as the US, Russia, China, Japan, and India. Rather than studying the separate legal systems of the European nation states, an ever-growing number of people show an interest in studying the common features of the legal systems of the countries that make up the European Union. In the field of labor law and social security law, one purpose of this approach is to see whether there is such a thing as a distinctively European social model as opposed to the social models of other powers. This book presents a satellite view on labor law and social security law in the EU's Member States.

The 1995-2005 Decade in Poland was a period of increased activity by the legislator within the framework of the labour law. There were various causes of this state of affairs. Firstly, the activity resulted from the unfinished process of adjusting law to the transformation of an economic system based on the substitution of acentrally controlled economy by an open market economy dominated by private employers. It was accompanied by extensive privatisation, which influenced individual and collective employment relations in enterprises that have undergone this process. Simultaneously, the phenomenon of unemployment increased to reach the highest rate in EU at the end of the decade. Hence, labour law had to be treated as one of the instruments of solving labour market problems. On 1st May 2004 Poland became a member of the European Union, which demanded the effort of transposing the whole 'acquis communautaire' into Polish labour law. Finally, the pressure of employers, demanding lower labour costs in order to increase the competitiveness of enterprises, brought about increased flexibility and the rationalisation of labour law regulations.

This book explores the effects of globalisation and digitalisation to labour law. The authors discuss how a changed political setting influences the foundations of contemporary labour law, and the challenges that new business models and forms of labour mobility put to regulating working life.
