Present-Day Labor Relations: A Critical Examination of Methods of Collective Negotiation Between Employers and Employees (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781025924526)

"Present-Day Labor Relations; A Critical Examination of Methods of Collective Negotiation Between Employers and Employees" provides a comprehensive and analytical look at the evolving landscape of industrial relations during a pivotal era in economic history. Written by Paul F. Gemmill, this work delves into the various mechanisms through which workers and management communicate and negotiate. It explores the different forms of collective bargaining, including trade unionism and employee representation plans, often referred to as company unions.

The book evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of these systems from both the employer's and the employee's perspectives, seeking to identify the most effective means of achieving industrial peace and efficiency. Gemmill provides a detailed critical examination of the methods used to handle grievances, set wages, and determine working conditions. By analyzing the structural and psychological components of labor negotiations, the text offers insight into the industrial democracy movement of the early 20th century. This study remains a significant historical resource for understanding the foundations of modern labor law and the historical tensions between organized labor and corporate management.
