| Tiivistelmä: | The Employment Relations Act 1999 (ERA) has provided trade unions in the UK with new opportunities for achieving recognition. After a long history of antiunionism in the offshore oil and gas industry, employers have voluntarily ceded recognition to Trades Union Congress (TUC)-affiliated trade unions. The legitimacy of this process has been contested by the non-TUC Offshore Industry Liaison Committee (OILC), an offshore workers' union, seeking to act as a recognised bargaining agent. The ERA may be promoting "business friendly" agreements at the expense of claims to recognition of other bargaining agents and of democratic employee choice. |
