| Tiivistelmä: | This article investigates differences between the British public and private sectors in terms of the decentralisation of employment relations. Drawing on data from the 1998 Workplace Employee Relations Survey, three main conclusions are achieved. 1) The analysis reveals that while local-level managers in both sectors have similar levels of responsibility for employment relations issues, those in the public sector are, on the whole, significantly less likely to be able to exercise authority. 2) The results show some marked variations in practice within the public sector, with managers in education having the greatest level of authority. 3) The extent to which differences in local-level authority between the public and private sectors can be explained by higher-level collective bargaining is explored, as well as the presence of higher-level personnel specialists. These factors appear to have only a partial influence. |
