Work and Organisational Studies and the Business and Labour History Group, The University of Sydney present:

Symposium on Non-Union Forms of Employee Representation in the Asia Pacific Rim Women's College, The University of Sydney, 7th December 2007

This symposium will focus on non-union forms of employee representation in the Asia-Pacific Rim. There is a resurgence of interest in these approaches with the decline of trade unionism in countries such as Australia and the US. Papers are historical and/or contemporary in focus and cover schemes such as employee representation plans, occupational health and safety committees and works councils. Papers also deal with community organising and non-union collective bargaining as alternative forms of worker voice. The papers come from Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea the United Kingdom and the United States.
