Industrial relations
Industrial relations deals with the collective, rather than individual, aspects of the employment relationship.
More specifically, the Foundation focuses on:
- the interconnections between different structures and levels of industrial relations and social dialogue, particularly in the new Member States;
- comparisons of the industrial relations situation in Europe, the USA and Japan;
- reporting on trends and developments in industrial relations through the European Industrial Relations Observatory;
- development of indicators with the aim of contributing to the EU debate on quality in industrial relations
- mechanisms for dispute resolution
- new tools of governance
