Collective agreements in the courts in the 1990s
Abstract
Evaluates the various functions of the British collective agreement, for example, its legal enforceability, agency and aspects of incorporation. Brings the discussion into the European context in relation to these issues. Cites a number of case law examples. Suggests that the UK may be in a “transitional phase between collective bargaining and a consensus culture between trade unions and management”. Concludes that the Labour government is attempting to steer a middle way between US‐style individualism and European‐style social partnership.
