Employee forums in the UK: friend or foe of trade unions?

Abstract

"With a tradition of informing and consulting employees resting on a single \nunion channel, the 2002 EU Information and Consultation (ICE) Directive \nwas bound to have a significant impact on employee relations in the UK \nUndoubtedly, the works council as an institution, or employee forum as it \nis often referred to in the UK, represents a totally new departure in UK \nemployment relations. The article specifically focuses on the repercussions \nemployee forums might have for trade unions. We focus on two \ncompanies which have both recently founded employee forums to comply \nwith ICE regulation. We ask whether such forums should be considered as \nposing a threat to British trade unions, or platform for revitalising their \nposition within the workplace." (author's abstract)
