The Oxford Handbook of the Law of Work
At the core of all societies and economies are human beings deploying their energies and talents in productive activities - that is, at work. The law governing human productive activity is a large part of what determines outcomes in terms of social justice, material wellbeing, and the sustainability of both. It is hardly surprising, therefore, that work is heavily regulated. This Handbook examines the 'law of work', a term that includes legislation setting employment standards, collective labour law, workplace discrimination law, the law regulating the contract of employment, and international labour law. It covers the regulation of relations between employer and employee, as well as labour ...
Direito do Trabalho e Gestão Corporativa
''A relevância da obra se destaca pelo momento atual, diante de grandes transformações no mundo do trabalho, em que ocorre um movimento de substituição parcial do trabalho humano pela inteligência artificial, decorrente da computação, da robótica e da cibernética. Tais desenvolvimentos tecnológicos têm impulsionado o uso de algoritmos e a arregimentação de mão de obra por meio das plataformas digitais, no bojo da Revolução Tecnológica 4.0.'' (Maria Cristina Irigoyen Peduzzi) ''Por fim, merece destaque o IPOJUR, organizador da obra. O livro atesta o compromisso dessa respeitada entidade: oferecer ao leitor o resultado da pesquisa de alto nível, no universo corporativo. Para...
A Prescrição das Pretensões Coletivas
Lorena Colnago apresenta uma pesquisa extensa, trafegando por águas agitadas com destemor. A pesquisa parte de uma constatada “lacuna normativa”. A prescrição é matéria mal resolvida, a meio caminho entre o direito material e o direito processual. Portanto, qual a sua natureza jurídica? Por óbvio, essa é uma questão teórica e a decisão não depende da natureza, mas da justificação racional do instituto e de seus efeitos sociais. Caso seja norma processual, as regras aplicáveis são tempus regit actum, valendo apenas para os fatos processuais não ocorridos e consumados; caso seja de direito material, em casos como o direito sancionador (especialmente o penal), poderá a pre...
Quarta Revolução Industrial e Direito do Trabalho
A obra tem como objeto analisar a Quarta Revolução Industrial e seus reflexos nas relações de trabalho, à luz do ordenamento jurídico brasileiro. Nesse contexto, busca contribuir de forma original com uma resposta ao seguinte problema: qual o modelo de proteção jurídico-social adequado para acolher o expressivo avanço tecnológico e, ao mesmo tempo, garantir a proteção do trabalhador e dos empresários que precisam se adaptar a essa nova realidade? Para responder a essa indagação surge o desafio de se repensar o Direito e suas categorias clássicas de relação de trabalho, de forma a incluir o gênero tertius do "trabalhador coordenado digital". A obra propõe-se a observar esse novo trabalhador, fruto da Quarta Revolução Industrial, e conferir a ele uma regulamentação jurídica própria, com proteção adequada, apta a garantir o direito da dignidade da pessoa humana e os direitos sociais.
Understanding European Trade Unionism
`As one would expect, this is a well-crafted, literate and absorbing account of European trade union development. Established scholars and advanced students will enjoy the discussion of theory and cases′ - The Journal of Industrial Relations `[A] detailed and fascinating history of trade unions in the three countries [Britain, Germany, Italy]... considers how the unions could recover from the intense disarray of recent years′ - Labour Research `Everyone concerned over the construction of a truly social Europe will learn much from this thoughtful and probing study′ - Professor Colin Crouch, Istituto Universitario Europeo In this comprehensive overview of trade unionism in Europe and beyond, Richard Hyman offers a fresh perspective on trade union identity, ideology and strategy. He shows how the varied forms and impact of different national movements reflect historical choices on whether to emphasize a role as market bargainers, mobilizers of class opposition or partners in social integration. The book demonstrates how these inherited traditions can serve as both resources and constraints in responding to the challenges which confront trade unions in today′s working world.

Beyond Employment
This book is the English edition of what has become widely known as 'The Supiot Report' - a bold and far-reaching look at the changing nature of work initiated by the EC. It takes as its starting point the profound changes that have taken place in the underlying employment relationship and associated human resource practices over the past twenty years. These developments are placed in their economic, social, and institutional contexts, while also providing a valuable comparative study of labour law in the main European countries. Competitive pressures on firms, the search for greater efficiency and effectiveness in the delivery of public services, the changing role of women in society, and t...
The Concept of the Employer
The concept of the employer has been surprisingly ignored in employment and corporate law, leaving protective norms unable to grapple with modern work arrangements. This book scrutinises the received concept of a unitary employer providing a functional reconceptualization as a framework for future arguments and coherent judicial decision-making.
