Representation, Trade Union Activity And Technologies

Abstract

Labour relations have been hit deeply by information and communication technologies (ICT). A wide bibliography has described this impact on all the working conditions and in all the circumstances that surround subordinate work. However, less attention has been devoted to the realm of trade union activity, representation, participation and involvement rights, collective bargaining and industrial action. All that huge field has to be re-thought from the point of view of the technological footprint as well. It is a discussion about strategies and adaptation to the current ways of information and communication. Consequently, a problem of adaptation of labour relations players to those channels. This paper tries to answer briefly to some of those questions taking the Spanish system as an example when necessary. Spanish legislation and case-law are described and criticized as long it is necessary for the overall discussion but taking into consideration the globalized literature on this subject.
