Employers prepare for fairness

Article Abstract:

Employers' attitudes will prove the key to the success of the British Employment Relations Bill, should it become law. Findings from a survey of employers' bodies such as the Confederation of British Industry and the Institute of Directors suggest that the forthcoming legislation will have little influence on managerial and human resources department practices in medium-sized and larger companies. Businesses' main problems will be added bureaucratic and administrative tasks and costs. Statutory union recognition is not the issue that some governmental opponents fear.

Article Abstract:

Many British employers' organizations are reacting to a decline in the importance of industry-level bargaining with new services to meet their members' changing needs. The Department of Trade and Industry pressures on such organizations to increase their effectiveness and professionalism have also influenced change. The emphasis of the Engineering Construction Industry Association on new roles is highlighted.
