Write 9 pages with APA style on The Dynamics of Employee Relations. This study seeks to analyze this statement, by (1) tracing the development of British labour relations from a historical perspective. (2) examining the necessary implications upon corporations operating in a globalized context. and (3) analyzing whether any perceived weaknesses in labour relations may be attributed to business corporations’ failure as social institutions.

In Britain’s history, three industrial relations systems have dominated during three distinct time periods. The collective laissez-faire system gave rise to trade unionism and industry bargaining, which lasted from about 1890 to 1960. crisis, reconstruction, and technological advances that led to mass layoffs and wage restraints between 1960 and 1980. and the single European market, deregulation, and erosion of economic autonomy, that led to the individualisation of industrial relations after the 1980s and until the present (Howell, 2000).

The period 1890 to 1945 saw the most important developments in the role played by collective bargaining and trade unionism. Even prior to the 20th century, there were significant pieces of legislation passed that impacted the legal obligations between employers and employees, such as the Employers Liability Act of 1880. By the 1900s “new unionism” emerged that was characterized by more active union activity (particularly the use of strikes and “picketing”) and an increase in the number of members, accompanied by an increase in the employers’ recourse to the courts to file cases against trade unions. Generally, however, court rulings tended towards the relaxation of the law in favour of the labour unions (Brodie, 2003).

The entry of Britain into World Wars I and II created exigencies that impacted on government’s labour relations policy.
