Despidos laborales. Fracturas sociales e identitarias
2008
The thousands of collective dismissals which have opened the beginning of the century in Spain do not just mean nearly two hundred thousand jobs (lots of them with a very long validity) and the same amount of broken life projects, but also ways of social reproduction, broken identities, institutions and social guarantees that crumble. Amazingly, these social upheavals often become eclipsed by discourses that appeal to economic considerations, the requirements of modernization or the requests of the logic of globalization. At this article, the consequences of the break of the social link intertwined along the second half of the twentieth century are investigated. For that, we have been rebui…
Lavoro a termine e contrattazione collettiva
2014
Nel ripercorrere l’evoluzione della disciplina del lavoro a tempo determinato, considerato come emblema della flessibilità e, al contempo, quale strumento per favorire l’incremento dell’occupazione, l’A. analizza in particolare il ruolo svolto dalla contrattazione collettiva, che talvolta è destinataria di un ampio rinvio legale, talaltra si ritrova ad operare entro ristretti limiti. Analysing the evolution and the regulation of fixed-term contract, considered as a symbol of flexibility and, at the same time, as a means to increase employment, the Author particularly examines the role played by collective bargaining, that sometimes is connected to a large legal referral, sometimes has to op…
Strategic Accounting Choice Around Firm-Level Labor Negotiations
2014
Prior literature argues that managers make opportunistic income-decreasing accounting choices to limit the concessions made to trade unions. However, empirical research to date presents mixed evidence, potentially due to a common theoretical approach that views labor bargaining as a one-shot game in nature. Using a sample of U.S. firms that engage in firm-level labor collective agreement negotiations, we study whether managers act strategically to reduce the transfer of wealth to employees, and its consequences over investment efficiency. We expect that the repeated nature of this negotiation leads to cooperation among the parties and limits the incentives for earnings manipulation, partic…
La reforma de la negociación colectiva en la ley 3/2012
2012
En el presente estudio se analizan las reformas en el régimen jurídico de la negociación colectiva mediante la Ley 3/2012 (precedida por el RDL 3/2012) y el RDL 20/2012, que han perjudicado y dificultado algunas de las funciones esenciales de la negociación colectiva para la evitación de vacíos de regulación, progreso en las condiciones de trabajo y freno a la individualización, y que han hecho girar el eje de la negociación hacia la empresa, solución poco realista en un marco productivo dominado por la microempresa y que otorga más poder al empleador. Las reformas han afectado sobre todo a la situación del convenio una vez finalizada su vigencia pactada (régimen de prórroga), a la estructu…
