Tiivistelmä: | In an environment of what would appear to be a widening 'representation gap' developing in many organisations, there has been considerable discussion on the effectiveness of nonunion employee representation (NER) structures as communication devices and mechanisms for employee involvement, or as substitute for unions in the collective bargaining process. The underlying debate centres on whether NER forms make trade unions unnecessary, or whether NER forms role differ from that of unions at the workplace. The findings of this study suggest that a 'substitute' or union avoidance strategy as used at News International Newspapers could have limitations. The implications of not recognising these limitations could result in greater indirect union influence in workplace issues and greater employee dissatisfaction at the workplace. |
