Some Reflections on Developments in German Employee Codetermination Since 1976
Authors: Dive B. J.
Published: April 2018

The latest German law on the codetermination of Supervisory Boards came into effect in July 1976. In one sense it was a major advance in the development of codetermination which some argue began 128 years previously when in 1848 the Constitutional National Assembly first established factory committees with certain rights of worker participation. It was also a compromise result of intensive political discussion and activity particularly in the period after Willy Brandt declared in 1973 that codetermination would be one of the 'main tasks' of his government. Germany industry has had a two-tier Board system since the 1880s. Under the provisions of the 1976 Act companies with more than 2,000 employees (481 enterprises in 1980) must have a Supervisory Board ('Aufsichtsrat') with equal representation for labour and capital, and an Executive Board ('Vorstard'). Under previous legislation (1952, 1972) the labour representation on the Supervisory Boards of joint stock companies (AG) had been limited to one third. The duties of the Supervisory Board include the appointment of the members of the Executive Board, one of whom must be a Labour Director (' Arbeitsdirektor').
Some perspectives on redundancy: with special reference to the State Dockyard. Newcastle, NSW
Authors: Burke Edward J.
Published: April 2018

The purpose of this article is to focus attention on the decision process which made over a thousand men redundant at State Dockyard, Newcastle, NSW. In the past, attention has been focused on labour market effects with social issues almost entirely neglected. We seek to highlight the imbalance of power which exists between employer interests, trade unions and workers. Dockyard workers endeavoured to resist redundancy and their means of protest were a reflection of the power base available to them. What emerges is an inability of workers to successfully resist redundancy.
Review article: Women and Pay
Authors: Hyman Prue
Published: April 2018

This article examines the extent to which women are paid less than men in New Zealand, making comparisons with the situation in Britain and America. In the course of the discussion, the immediate causes of differences between pay and some more underlying theories to account for them are briefly outlined. Consideration is then given to past and possible future policies which might help to increase relative female earnings and opportunity, together with a discussion of their desirabiliy.
Industrial relations in smaller countries: Introduction
Authors: Anderson Gordon
Published: April 2018

This issue of the Jounral introduces the first of what the editors hope will be a regular series of synoposia on industrial relations topics of special relevance to our predominantly New Zealand readers, but also to those abroad. The first topic "Industrial relations in smaller countries" was chosen because the editors hoped that it would allow a comparison of how some smaller countries have developed their industrial relations systems to cope with the problems that small size creates. The four countries represented: Austria, NorWay, Switzerland and the Republic of Ireland are all apparently similar to New Zealand in certain obvious aspects. These include their small populations, a high percentage of G.D.P. involved in foreign trade and the fact that they all are developed, western, democratic societies with a high standard of living.
Industrial Relations in Norway
Authors: Gustavsen Bjorn , Hunnius Gerry
Published: April 2018

The Norwegian industrial relations system is marked by close co-operation between the state, the employers and the unions and by the high degree of institutionalization of labour relations in general and conflict resolution in particulilr. This co-operation arises partly from industrialisation at a time when democratic attitudes and processes were already established and from the need for national unity in the post-war reconstruction. This co-operation and institutionalization is illustrated by the highly centralised trade union movement and in the formal aspects of the bargaining and conflict resolution system such as the Labour Court and the committees and other bodies associated with the incomes policy and tripartite bargaining system.
Industrial Relations in Switzerland
Authors: Young F. J. L.
Published: April 2018

Switzerland and the Scandinavian countries are noted for their low levels of industrial conflict. Thereafter the similarity between the two approaches to industrial relations becomes rather tenuous. The Swiss system of industrial relations is anything but centralised. It demonstrates what many outside observers might consider acute sensitivity to the preservation of individual freedom of choice. To some extent this may be explained in terms of Switzerland's unique form of direct democracy. At the same time, there is evidence that this multi cultural federation with complications of language and religion has achieved a large measure of consensus on the procedural aspects of industrial relations. In this respect, the peace agreement approach first introduced in 1937 has been described by an experienced Swiss mediator as the main pillar of Swiss industrial peace.
Industrial Relations in the Republic of Ireland
Authors: Brosnan Peter
Published: April 2018

The Republic of Ireland and New Zealand are alike in many respects. They have similar-sized populations and similar climates; agriculture has an unusual prominence in their national economies and industrial development is strongly encouraged. In addition, both were once British colonies and have similar legal and political systems with English as their majority language. Despite these, and many other similarities, the two countries have markedly different industrial relations systems. In contrast to New Zealand's state-regulated system, the Irish system is notably voluntaristic, multi-unionism is the norm and Irish unions compete for membership with British-based unions. There are many other differences and this paper highlights the main aspects of the Irish system, covering the collective bargaining system, the union and employer organisations, legislation, Ireland's experience with national pay agreements, participation in management, picketing policy, union restructuring and public sector industrial relations.
Wage indexation and industrial relations: A comparison of recent experience in Israel and Australia
Authors: Galin Amira , Lansbury Russell D.
Published: April 2018

Australia and Israel both have centralised machinery for the determination of national wage policy. In Australia, the Conciliation and Arbitration Commission holds an annual national wage hearing. In Israel, a national framework agreement for determining wage levels is bargained and signed by the parties every two years. In addition, both countries have periodical arrangements for adjusting wages as a result of movement in the cost of living. This article compares the indexation arrangements of the two countries and analyses their impact on industrial relations.
A Framework for analysing worker participation in management
Authors: Stephens R.J.

The levels of managerial decision-making at which worker participation occurs, the range of subject-matter covered, the degree of power-sharing, and the means by which worker participation is implemented, are influenced by the wider social, economic and political environment.
Is accident frequency a reliable indicator of industrial conflict?
Authors: Penney John , Hamilton Nick
Published: April 2018

This article presents the results of research into the relationship of labour turnover, absenteeism and accident frequency to organised manifestations of industrial conflict in a New Zealand industrial environment. It supports previous research findings of an additive relationship between labour turnover and absenteeism and lost time due to industrial disputes. However, an inverse relationship is found between accident frequency and the other three expressions of conflict. A possible reason for this anomaly is proposed.
Commentary: The Government's role in industrial relations
Authors: Bolger J.B.
Published: April 2018

Since the turn of the century, the Government has played a major role in the country's industrial scene. The interest of successive governments has focussed on two principal areas. First, it has reflected the community's concern that the level of strike activity be minimised and that strikes, when they do occur, are resolved speedily. Second, and more recently, it has been concerned to ensure that the wage bargaining decisions of the parties are consistent with broader economic objectives.
Invisible workers: women, redundancy and unemployment
Authors: Hancock Mary
Published: April 2018

The methods of gathering unemployment statistics in New Zealand effectively render large numbers of women invisible - women who have lost their jobs or are seeking work often do not get recorded as unemployed. The extent of redundancy and unemployment amongst women only begins to become apparent when a range of surveys and industry studies are drawn together. This article reports the results of a study of women made redundant after the Mosgiel closure. The paper reveals the deverstating effect which unemployment has on women's lives.

The 1975-1978 Maritime Composite Agreement
Authors: Albury P.F.
Published: April 2018

In 1975, the maritime employers and unions negotiated a composite maritime agreement. By 1978 however, and despite the goodwill that had gone into its negotiation, the agreement had disintegrated. Although this disintegration has been attributed to the failure to negotiate satisfactory wage relativities, this explanation is seen as inadequate. This article intends to show that the problem of wage relativities, rather than being a cause of this disintegration, was in fact only a sympton of a more serious underlying problem.
Report: The 1983 Federation of Labour Conference
Authors: Harbridge R.J.
Published: April 2018

The short term problem of coping with the effects of the wage freeze, the long term issue of attempting to find a new system of wage fixing, and the associated issue of union organisation, completely dominated the 1983 FOL conference. Held in Wellington from 3 - 6 May 1983, it was attended by 412 delegates exercising 594 votes. 69 delegates were women compared with a previous high of 64, reflecting only a slow increase in female participation in union affairs.
Occupational Health and Safety in New Zealand: Problems and Solutions
Authors: Duignan Paul
Published: April 2018

An economic climate which promotes cost cutting, lack of resources for regulation) agencies, enforcement bodies which are reticent to enforce, legislation which is unco-ordinated and not communicated to those who need it, information which is available in university departments but not on the shop floor, and no effective sanctions in terms of penalties and increased levies against negligent employers all threaten the health and safety of New Zealand workers. These problems are outlined and improvements such as more resources for regulatory bodies, a more positive policing role for enforcement agencies, integration of legislation and administration, better information flow, effective sanctions against employers and particularly more worker involvement in occupational health and safety are proposed.
Some Crucial Issues Concerning the Safety Provided by Occupational Health Standards
Authors: Kjellstrom Tord
Published: April 2018

Traditionally occupational health standards for chemicals and other hazards in the workplace have been established by "expert committees" with no involve1nent of the victims of the effects of the hazards, namely the workers themselves. This has led to standards that do not protect workers against all ill effects. The example of trichloroethylene is typical. The New Zealand standard lags behind the World Health Organisation and Swedish standards. Workers have a moral right to be involved in the standard setting and the enforcement procedures. The crucial issue for them is the definition of the "acceptable risk" for a particular hazard, as they are putting their own health at stake. It is 34 years since Sweden established the system of workers health and safety representatives in all workplaces and in government agencies dealing with occupational health. Maybe it is time for New Zealand to follow this example.
Accident Compensation - A Union Standpoint
Authors: Wilson J.R.
Published: April 2018

This article examines some of the issues raised during the controversial Government-initiated review of the accident compensation scheme which extended over more than 3 years. It concludes that the review failed to redress the scheme's main shortcomings and that an independent review should be conducted by somebody with concern for the interests of the injured.
The American Experience with Occupational Safety and Health Regulation
Authors: Chelius James R.
Published: April 2018

The significant changes in American occupational safety and health policies are now over 10 years old. This paper reviews and integrates the empirical studies on the impact of this regulation. The evidence indicates that government mandated safety standards have had little or no beneficial impact on the workplace. Because of the long term nature of the problems, there is no evidence on the effectiveness of health standards; however several studies indicate such standards are quite inefficient. The workers' compensation system which was hoped to have influenced prevention with its price incentives has yielded mixed results. The introduction of the system appears to have enhanced safety; however higher benefits are associated with higher reported accident rates.
Heath, Safety and Industrial Relations: A UK Study
Authors: Leopold J.W. , Beaumont P.B.
Published: April 2018

Drawing on a sample of safety committee members in 51 plants in the United Kingdom manufacturing industry, this paper examines 3 aspects of the relationship between unions and management on health and safety issues. The contention that safety is less of an area of conflict than other industrial relations issues is explored. The potential conflict, between efficiency and democracy in the operation of committees, is examined, leading on to an exploration of the relationship between union safety committee members and the shop floor.
SHORTER PAPERS: A Comment on the Extent of Voluntary Bargaining in New Zealand Industrial Relations
Authors: Harbridge Raymond
Published: April 2018

In the current debate about the future of private sector wage fixing in New Zealand, there is an implicit assumption that there is an extensive second tier of bargaining which supplements national award negotiations. Commentators are, however, reluctant to quantify the true extent of this second tier. Their reluctance stems from the fact that much of this second tier is negotiated informally, and while agreements may be written, they are often unlikely to be registered with the Arbitration Court.

Managerial Unionism and the Law in New Zealand
Authors: Binnie Keith D. , Smith David F.
Published: April 2018

This paper examines the issue of trade unionism amongst the fastest growing occupational group in New Zealand, which is also the least unionised, managers and administrators. Despite facing similar threats to employment security and changes to working conditions as other wage and salary earners, most managers and administrators do not have the benefits of a protective organisation to bargain on their behalf. The paper examines forms of collective representation for managers, but particularly incorporation and registration as a trade union. Problems associated with attempts to register managerial unions are discussed, and the particular case of APEX is examined. The paper concludes with some suggestions for changes to the law to ease the plight of those managers who wish to unionise, and summarises the current avenues available for collective representation.
In Recognition of Skill: The Growth of Qualification Payments, 1960-1980
Authors: Walsh Pat
Published: April 2018

The initial development of qualification payments was related to efforts by craft unions to overcome the decline in margins for skill. During the 1970s, the emphasis widened to include a campaign to use qualification payments to evade wage controls. As a result, some non-trades groups pressed successfully for qualification payments or their equivalents to restore lost relativity with tradesmen. Their successes, most notably at Tasman and Kinleith, worked against the initial craft union strategy of using such payments to restore skill margins.
From Hot Metal to Cold Type: New Technology in the Newspaper Industry
Authors: Hill Roberta
Published: April 2018

The paper examines the impact of radical changes in typesetting and composing techniques on 3 occupational groups employed in a major New Zealand newspaper: ex-linotype operators, hot-metal compositors and teletypesetters. The paper stresses the importance of adopting a "relational" approach to analyse the transformation of the labour process. The approach proceeds from the historically defined interests produced by the tensions and contradictions within and between organisations or groups.

Nova quaedam insita mirifice transsumptio
Authors: Tomazzoli Gaia
Published: April 2018

This paper aims to study figurative language in the artes poetriae and its probable influence on Dante’s poetic theory and practice. First of all, I raise the issue of Dante’s education and its possible intersection with the manuscript tradition of artes poetriae; I then proceed to comment evidence of Dante’s acquaintance with these treatises. I especially focus on their development of a theory of transumptio and on their prescriptions concerning metaphors, similes and allegory. Finally, I briefly sketch the evolution of Dante’s theory of figurative language and show how it parallels his expanding metaphoric practice.

The dialogue between Nino Barbantini and Margherita Grassini Sarfatti suggests new considerations on the proceedings of art criticism at that age and on the struggle for power undertaken by various groups and cultural centers in the peninsula.
