Abstract

Der Kommentar bietet eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Anleitung für alle Rechtsanwälte und Unternehmensjuristen, Aufsichtsratsmitglieder, Unternehmensleiter, Wahlvorstände, Gewerkschaftsvertreter, Anteilseigner und Arbeitnehmer. Übersichtlichkeit, praxisnahe Argumentation und eine verständliche Sprache zeichnen das Werk aus. Ziel der Autoren ist es, die schwierige Dialektik des Mitbestimmungsgesetzes zwischen Parität der Gruppen im Aufsichtsrat und Übergewicht der Anteilseignerseite auszuleuchten und auf ein gesichertes rechtliches Fundament zu stellen. Die Neuauflage bringt das Werk auf den aktuellen Stand von Rechtsprechung, Literatur und Gesetzgebung (inkl. der Neuerungen durch die neue Bundesregierung). This commentary provides a rigorous guide for attorneys, in-house legal advisers, supervisory board members, trade unionists, and stockholders. It is distinguished by its clarity and its practical orientation. The authors seek to elucidate the complex dialectic of the Codetermination Act and place it on a secure legal foundation. The volume covers all of the reforms introduced by Germany’s new federal government.

Abstract

This report: (i) explains economic and legal implications of current job restrictions to women for Azerbaijan, (ii) provides compelling arguments to move away from a job-title centric form of restricting and protecting women to an exposure focused rationale, and provides other country examples that follow an exposure-focused risk approach, (iii) describes the methodology used to assess OH hazards/risks attributed to each job restricted to women, critically reviews restricted jobs and provides resultant conclusions, and (iv) recommends changes to reform Labor Code and subsidiary legislation to align them with other national legislation, international conventions and good international practice. Importantly, the report provides suggestions on how to address the ramifications resulting from these changes. It is of note that this assessment is first of its kind for Azerbaijan to systematically and methodologically review job restrictions to women from a perspective of occupational health hazards and risks using available evidence.

Abstract

Addressing Serbia's labor market problems is critical to enhancing growth and job creation. Low labor force participation, relatively high unemployment, particularly among youth and other disadvantaged groups, and rising skills gaps currently impede efficient use of human capital and the prospects for sustained economic growth and welfare improvements. Although there has been progress, more jobs are needed if Serbia is to catch up with neighboring countries in the European Union (EU). Robust growth in employment will require a comprehensive agenda: boosting private sector job creation on the demand side; reducing barriers and disincentives to work and improving worker skills on the supply side; and ensuring that labor market intermediation and institutions facilitate employer-employee matches. This note focuses on current labor market performance and on skills and labor market policies to support inclusive growth. Employment in Serbia's formal private sector is low; the full workforce potential is underutilized; and labor productivity and real wages have been relatively flat. Improving skills and reforming labor market policies can boost both employment and productivity. This note's focus on skills and labor taxation, regulation, and intermediation allows it to discuss specific policy actions to support Serbia's New Growth Agenda. Tackling these issues will not only enhance Serbia's human capital and productivity for higher growth but will also boost people's incomes, reduce poverty, and grow the middle class.

Abstract

Female labor force participation in the Mashreq is exceptionally low, a problem likely to be exacerbated by the Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. This report calls for action in the following areas: stronger economic growth, effective policy action to close legal gaps, promotion of more egalitarian attitudes, access to quality childcare, and the provision of safe transportation. The main focus of the report is women's economic opportunities, as opposed to the broader issue of women's empowerment. The report analyzes other aspects of female empowerment, but in particular as those aspects influence, determine, and are affected by women's participation in paid economic activities. Economic opportunities encompass the availability and possibility of taking advantage of earnings opportunities as well as the existence of an enabling environment in terms of the appropriate legal, institutional setting. The report is structured as follows: chapter one provides a description of women's economic opportunities in Mashreq countries and highlights differences in labor participation across critical life stages. Chapter two presents evidence on the different barriers faced by women toward participating in the labor market, related to legal aspects, informal institutions, and markets. Chapter three provides a brief description of international experiences with sizeable increases in female participation in the labor market, chapter four expands to explore important areas where policies can be improved in the Mashreq countries to lower these barriers and close participation gaps, as well as an emerging opportunity that, if used well, can accelerate this process. Chapter five concludes and reflects on how the COVID-19 outbreak and the measures to contain it may exacerbate some of the barriers faced by women.

Abstract

This book investigates four core characteristics of occupational health and safety legal systems in order to provide a comparative and critical analysis of the similarities and differences in protecting the health and safety of workers at the workplace. In addition to analysing the health and safety regulations, the book addresses corresponding oversight and enforcement mechanisms. It compares and contrasts five different legal systems, namely those of the EU, the Netherlands, the UK, Sweden and China. Beyond offering an overview of the modes of OHS regulation, instruments and legal enforcement practices, the book helps to answer the question of how to improve working environments in order to protect workers from all kinds of dangers encountered at the workplace. The intended readership includes researchers with a background in labour law, comparative law, Chinese law and/or European Union law.

Abstract

This book examines the problem of wage security and clarity of employment in labour law. It studies the neoclassical and institutional models of labour law, and the wage. It concludes that the way the wage is treated in labour law theory is dependent upon the way legal concepts themselves are conceptualized by their users.

Abstract

This book covers technologies that pose new challenges for consumer policy, creative developments that can help protect consumers’ economic interests, innovative approaches to addressing perennial consumer concerns, and the challenges entailed by emerging ways of creating and delivering consumer products and services. In addition, it reflects on past successes and failures of consumer law and policy, explores opportunities for moving consumer law in a different direction, and discusses potential threats to consumer welfare, especially in connection with the changing political landscape in many parts of the world. Several chapters examine consumer law in individual countries, while others have an international focus.
