Abstract

IN presenting the 1975 Viscount Nuffield Memorial Paper entitled “The attempt to reform British Leyland's Industrial Relations” its author, Mr. Pat Lowry (Director of Personnel, British Leyland Ltd.), asserts that British Leyland did not invent strikes — it inherited them. It is to be wondered whether Mr. Lowry was not too close to events to understand fully the nature of the illness which, in recent times, has gripped British Leyland and, indeed, other car manufacturers. British Leyland were not short of specialists and consultants during recent years, neither was there any lack of diagnoses or of treatments.
