  • Scaling up by law? Canadian Labour law, the nation-state and the case of the British Columbia Health Employees Union
    Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, 2012
    Co-Authors: Tod D. Rutherford
    Abstract:

    This paper examines the Canadian Supreme Court’s 2007 ruling in favour of the Health Employees Union (HEU) versus the British Columbia government. Based on international Labour law, this ruling recognised collective bargaining as part of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. While recent research in human and Labour geography on Labour law and the state have emphasised its contingent, topological and site-based nature I argue: (i) that this case reflects how Canadian unions became deeply embedded in post-war hegemonic splicings of law and space and the state’s role in the reproduction of the wage-Labour Relation and (ii) while the HEU’s struggles and the use of international law contest such splicings, these are still sharply inflected by existing nation-state legal systems that remain both relatively resilient and ambivalent about Labour rights. The HEU case thus reveals that scaling up by law may not protect worker interests if Labour is otherwise weak.

  • Modes d'ajustement à la crise: des Relations professionnelles sous tensions
    2014
    Co-Authors: Coralie Perez, Nadine Thevenot, Nathalie Berta, Delphine Brochard, Noélie Delahaie, Sophie Jallais, Corinne Perraudin, Catherine Sauviat, Julie Valentin
    Abstract:

    This research has been done in the context of the REPONSE (2010-2011) post survey. The interviews aimed at characterizing the companies' adjustment processes to the 2008 crisis and how they have been discussed, negotiated or forced by management direction. The methodology is built on two parts: quantitative and qualitative. The first one consists in a firms' typology grounded on the statistical exploitation of the survey matched to SINAPSE (which the information on firms' short term work uses) and DMMO (which gives information on workers moves); the second one is qualitative based on case studies of 15 companies mainly industrial. The typology shows up the specific combinations of employment and retributions adjustmentss of 4000 establishments of 10 or more workers of the non-agricultural sectors between 2008 and 2010. The fieldwork was done on a sample of establishments representative of the different types of adjustments combination. It gives important insights on the decision making process and how workers experienced it. Job preservation of permanent workers and the maintenance of the level of the retributions appeared to be key factors for workers to give their consent to the adjustments. But, often, these agreements relied on workers return on internal flexibility on working time, internal mobility, wages increases' rules which workers representative may find difficult to go back after the recovery. Labour Relation appears to have become more and more pliable.
