Abstract:
This book covers the principles of Labour Law and Industrial Relations in Italy in a broad sense. After a General Introduction covering the general features, historical background and definitions, the book goes on to discuss the sources of labour law and indutrial relations, and the organs instrumental in forming policy, such as governmental institutions. The main body of the work is divided into two parts. The first part deals with the individual employment relationship and discusses, among other things, labour contracts, the rights and duties of employees, and remuneration and benefits. The second part deals with collective labour relations, and focuses on trade unions rights, collective bargaining and industrial conflict.
