Unions and Employers and Fair Employment
Abstract
Explores the attitudes of employers and unions in Northern Ireland to the revival in the 1980s of earlier concerns about religious discrimination, and to the failure of the Fair Employment Act 1976 to make any real impact on Roman Catholic disadvantage in the labour market. Concludes that not only were their responses predictable but that, almost as a result, the unions had a disproportionate influence on the final shape of the new legislation introduced in 1989.
