This title was made Open Access by libraries from around the world through Knowledge Unlatched. 520 3 $a This book informs debates about worker participation in the workplace or worker voice by analysing comparative historical data relating to these ideas during the inter-war period in Australia, Canada, Germany, the UK and the US. The issue is topical because of the contemporary shift to a workplace focus in many countries without a corresponding development of infrastructure at the workplace level, and because of the growing 'representation gap' as union membership declines. Some commentators have called for the introduction of works councils to address these issues. Other scholars have gone back and examined the experiences with the non-union Employee Representation Plans (ERPs) in Canada and the US. This book will test these claims through examining and comparing the historical record of previous efforts of five countries during a rich period of experimentation between the Wars. In addition to ERPs, the book expands the debate will by examining union-management co-operation, Whitley works committees and German works councils. 650 0 $a Industrial relations $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Communication in industrial relations $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Management $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Communication in industrial relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00870155 650 7 $a Industrial relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00971609 650 7 $a Management $x Employee participation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007168 650 7 $a Betriebsrat $2 gnd 650 7 $a Betriebsverfassung $2 gnd 650 7 $a Mitbestimmung $2 gnd 651 7 $a Australien $2 gnd 651 7 $a Deutschland $2 gnd 651 7 $a Gro©britannien $2 gnd 651 7 $a Kanada $2 gnd 651 7 $a USA $2 gnd 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Patmore, Greg. $t Worker voice $w (OCoLC)953594399 830 0 $a Studies in labour history (Liverpool University Press) ; $v 5. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021024045.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=798F1ED0F1E611E78A18091E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
