This article proposes a historical-sociological lens to approach coercive and violent relations within remunerated household labor. Drawing from Orlando Patterson, these relations are understood as interpersonal relations of domination with the concept of domestic servitude. They are analyzed in a qualitative empirical case study on socioculturally isolated domestic workers in Lima, Peru. While the paper attends to scholars concerning migration and domestic work, its main sociological contribution is to empirically and theoretically enrich debates on "unfreedom" beyond economic exploitation. It argues for a reflective and differentiated elaboration on sociocultural dimensions of coercion and violence that are embedded in colonial and patriarchal power structures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article explores how digital platforms have changed working conditions and labor relations in domestic and care work in recent years. The study focuses on Hogarú, a digital platform in Colombia. Through a qualitative study involving interviews and focus groups, we analyze Hogarú's business model, along with the changes in working conditions for domestic workers compared to traditional employment methods. The study highlights two main findings. First, digital platforms can enhance domestic workers' bargaining power by raising awareness of their rights, professionalizing their work, promoting physical meeting spaces with other workers, providing ongoing training, and ensuring fundamental rights. Second, while digital platforms can shift the traditional labor relationship from one where the domestic worker directly offers care services to one managed by the company, power imbalances and low recognition of this work persist. This article offers insights into digital labor platforms from the perspective of the workers involved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Resumen: En este artículo se estudia la relación entre la voz de los trabajadores individuales (en defensa de sus propios intereses) y su voz promotora (en favor de los intereses de su organización empleadora). Se comprueba la validez de las hipótesis aplicando modelos de ecuaciones estructurales a un conjunto de datos único sobre la conducta de la voz de los trabajadores en los Países Bajos (N = 3 159). Se constata que la respuesta de los supervisores a la voz de los trabajadores tiene un efecto indirecto en la voz promotora, de modo que las experiencias de defensa de los propios intereses de los trabajadores repercuten en su contribución al funcionamiento organizacional.

Resumen: La variación del tiempo de trabajo tiene importantes consecuencias económicas, sociales y ambientales, pero los estudios sobre las preferencias de los trabajadores están fragmentados entre diversas disciplinas y revistas. Para superar este escollo, se presenta una revisión sistemática de 173 estudios. Los resultados y la inadecuación del tiempo de trabajo se han investigado mayoritariamente en países de la OCDE, con datos de encuestas y métodos estadísticos. Los hallazgos más robustos se refieren al género, las responsabilidades familiares y las horas de trabajo actuales. Las ocupaciones más estudiadas son las del sector sanitario. Un corpus de investigaciones cualitativas que esclarezcan la formación de usos y preferencias ayudará a comprender cómo se propagan los modelos de reducción del tiempo de trabajo.

The aim of this article is to examine the unique characteristics of conflict management in the workplace, within the framework of social dialogue. Through a review of specialized literature, the necessary competencies for workplace mediators to facilitate quality conflict management are analyzed. Additionally, various techniques required for effective mediation are explored. It is concluded that, beyond the specific utility of each technique, the timing of their application is paramount. Moreover, the professionalization of mediators is deemed essential, as they should possess skills such as empathy, active listening, self-control, compassion, creative thinking, assertive language, and critical reasoning, alongside resilience and self-care.

Resumen: La incidencia de las huelgas en Chile ha aumentado sustancialmente desde finales de la década de 2000. En este artículo analizamos la actividad huelguista centrándonos en un aspecto clave del modelo de relaciones laborales chileno: el pluralismo sindical. A partir de una encuesta representativa de las empresas del sector privado, estimamos modelos de regresión logística que indican que el pluralismo sindical incrementa significativamente la probabilidad de huelgas en las empresas. Sin embargo, nuestro análisis no permite concluir que el efecto positivo del pluralismo sindical se explique por la competencia entre sindicatos, tal como sugiere parte de la bibliografía internacional.

Resumen: La perspectiva insider‐outsider, dominante en el discurso sobre la regulación laboral, sostiene que las disposiciones protectoras se mantienen vigentes en interés de sus beneficiarios (insiders), aunque perjudican a otros trabajadores menos acomodados (outsiders). Si la contraposición entre ambas categorías fuera tal como se formula en el modelo, los outsiders se opondrían rotundamente a la regulación. Sin embargo, nuestras evidencias de que los outsiders en los países en desarrollo están mayoritariamente a favor de las medidas regulatorias obligan a replantear la tajante dicotomía insider‐outsider. Sugerimos distintas líneas de investigación, como los procesos redistributivos, las transiciones, la equidad y el poder del empleador en los mercados de trabajo. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article analyzes how organizations interpret the systemic relationships between the labor market and labor relations in human resource management (HRM) strategies during the Covid-19 pandemic. The research adopted a qualitative approach, carrying out four focus groups with 24 people managers and interviewing four union representatives in Brazilian cities located in three of the five Brazilian regions: Northeast (Fortaleza, CE), South (Joinville, SC), and Central-West (Brasília, DF). The findings indicated knowledge gaps in the area of HRM regarding labor market and labor relations. They observed the occurrence of similar HRM practices institutionalized by a common repertoire at different levels while unions were adapting to the new labor legislation in Brazil (enacted in 2017). The Covid-19 pandemic brought structural changes such as an increase in telework and adjustment to labor legislation and organization. It also brought behavioral changes and affected the worker's health. The study contributes a) theoretically by expanding the analysis of HRM under the institutional approach, b) methodologically by providing comparative research, and c) empirically by illustrating how HRM works in different regions of the country.

This research raised the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the experience of immigration and Labor Relations (RT) for Brazilian immigrants in Portugal. The research included biographical interviews with 27 women who have lived in the country for three years. The results are presented in two themes: a) experiences of Brazilian immigrants prior to migration, immigration conditions, and relationship with work; and b) analysis of changes in the work context and personal and family challenges after the onset of the global health crisis. The results indicate as main influences of COVID-19 in the scope of RT in the context of immigration: dismissal and search for new paid activities; need for different sources of income; intensification of working hours, especially in cases of home-office; telework linked to companies autonomously, by digital platforms or contact network; and continuity in Portugal dependent on the financial and emotional support of family members.

El objetivo de este trabajo es investigar los efectos de la sindicalización en los salarios de una muestra de la población brasileña en 2015. A partir de los datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Hogares (PNAD) y su suplemento sobre relaciones laborales y sindicalización, se investigaron --mediante técnicas econométricas (mínimos cuadrados ordinarios, emparejamiento por puntaje de propensión y regresiones cuantílicas no condicionales)-- las hipótesis de que estar sindicalizado afecta los salarios y de que existe un beneficio extra para las entidades más participativas en relación con los afiliados. Los resultados muestran que, en promedio, existe una relación positiva entre sindicatos y salarios. También se verificó que un aumento de la sindicalización total reduciría los salarios de las personas que ganan menos, pero aumentaría los de la mayor parte de la población. Además, los sindicatos que participaron en algún acuerdo en los últimos 365 días generaron ganancias medias del 4,3%. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study tries to provide a comparative features of labor relations notions in some foreign nations. This study examines the legal laws and regulation of labor relationships, splitting states into 2 classifications. The initial incorporates Germany, Russia, France, and several other European nations. In the next - the USA, Australia, Great Britain, and other nations of the Anglo-Saxon legal systems. The comparative examination of various states' legislation and formal-logical and functional methods are used to gratify the study's objectives. The conclusion is made that the borrowing of the experience of the nations' adhering to the Anglo-Saxon pattern is not acceptable for Russia because, in them, the contract of labor is demonstrated not as a means able to guarantee the workers' rights but as a legal means to generate circumstances able to infringe on their benefits.

This paper discusses two theoretical approaches in the field of Industrial Relations (IR). A brief overview of the origins of the field is presented and two classic theoretical perspectives are discussed: the systemic view and the strategic choice perspective. The discussion elaborates the main points of each approach and, in the end, considers some criticisms and implications for future research. The aim is to reintroduce the IR perspectives through a seminal debate to provide a starting point for scholars in Management and to emphasize the development of theories for employment relations.

By introducing the special edition that sought to bring together articles that make up a mosaic of the contemporary debate on the area of people management and labor relations, the article emphasizes the importance of having access to recent production, through the production published in scientific journals. In this sense, it signals some trends in the debate on the aforementioned areas that encompass changes in work relationships and people management provided by new technologies and the growing emergence of concern with issues related to gender diversity in organizations. In the theoretical field itself, the article emphasizes the importance of paying attention to the epistemological bases of research and reflections on the area of people management and work relations.

The GIG economy and the uberization of work emerged as new paradigms of work organization, models that intensify the use of technologies and are mediated by digital platforms. Both models encourage autonomous work (crowdwork) or on demand (on demand). The presence of the uberization of work and the GIG economy promotes the precariousness of work and the absence of support for the worker, while 'romanticizing' the discourse of autonomous and flexible work. To understand the consequences of the uberization of work and the GIG economy, the aim of this article is to propose a research agenda to analyze the consequences of these models on workers subjected to these labor relations. Considering the literature on the subject, the article presents an agenda based on themes such as: meaning of work, legislation and union representation, psychodynamics of work, precariousness of work, economic impacts, diversity policies and people management policies. To conclude, the uberization of work and the GIG economy are presented as a new name for a form of work that already existed, informality, but gained visibility with the internet and digital tools.

La globalización económica que se inició a finales de la década de 1970 y principios de la década de 1980 ha generado un estado de inseguridad laboral para los trabajadores. Este estado de inseguridad laboral coincide con dos tendencias: la reducción de la participación salarial en el ingreso y la precarización del empleo, ambas observadas en la mayoría de las economías de mercado desde principios de los años ochenta. El objetivo de este artículo es ofrecer una explicación sobre cómo la creciente inseguridad en el empleo ha provocado que la participación de los salarios en el ingreso se reduzca y que el empleo se precarice. Para cumplir con este objetivo se propone un modelo de salarios de eficiencia, en un escenario de equilibrio restringido por la demanda. Dicho modelo, además, tiene la virtud de explicar algunas características propias del mercado laboral de México en las últimas décadas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

En este artículo se abordan algunos aspectos de la calidad del empleo en el Brasil, en particular el empleo rural. Se parte de la percepción de cambios en las relaciones de producción en el campo y sus repercusiones en las relaciones de trabajo. Se aplica una metodología de datos de panel que capta los condicionantes de esta calidad y se propone un índice de calidad del empleo. El universo rural constituye un ambiente más precario que el urbano, aunque las diferencias estén disminuyendo con el tiempo. Respecto del empleo agrícola, el crecimiento económico de la década de 2000 se traduce solo en la extensión de las condiciones existentes a los nuevos contratos, sin modificar la calidad media del empleo. El aumento de los ingresos del trabajo y el nivel de educación son instrumentos importantes para aumentar los niveles de calidad del empleo y superar problemas como la heterogeneidad entre grupos.

This paper focuses on developing the issue of labor relations in the public sector, and more specifically in the area of the protective nature that the Uruguayan legal system displays on the functional link between the State as employer and the public official as worker. The approach to be taken on the subject will be based on a vision of the general principles of Labor Law, and a constructive syllogistic position in a tertium genus view between Labor Law and Administrative Law for the phenomenon of labor relations in the public sector. On the basis of this idea of common formation and construction among both branches of Law, an attempt will be made to propose the figure of a fourth rule in the form of action of Labor Law operates. Analyzing the impact and scope of the presence of this new legal concept with the aim of protecting public officials and providing a new distinctive element to continue thinking about whether or not we are dealing with a new autonomous branch of Law.

The objective of the study was to analyze the effectiveness of the Joint Committee on Safety and Health at Work in ten (10) private organizations placed in Barranquilla during the second semester of 2020, to identify the shortcomings and strengthen the processes of formation, training, management, and perception in the committee members to establish opportunities for improvement. The research was developed under a mixed approach of data collection and statistical analysis. The sample included seventy-six (76) members of ten organization's Joint Committees placed in Barranquilla, Colombia. To collect the information online surveys were applied, where the participants selected their role, demographic information and then gave answers to different questions divided by categories. The results show that there is a 71.2% of the overall effectiveness of the committees, indicating that the COPASST´s requirements have been partially implemented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The process of integration of Ukraine into the european community implies the adaptation of the legal framework, as well as important transformations of the social relations established in its population. The study demonstrates the most acute aspects of normative support for labor protection in Ukraine and presents possible ways of reforming the legislation based on the successful experience of the EU countries. The conceptual basis of the reformed legislation of Ukraine should be the protection of the rights of employees, as these rights are most often violated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article analyzes the recognition of a new right in the field of labor relations: "the right to disconnect". This right is explained as the connectivity between people by digital means has spread in enterprises as a work tool. This situation is causing a violation of working hours limitations and, thus, upon workers' right to free time. The case being that workers must remain connected to their jobs outside working hours, with all the negative consequences that this entails for their lives, health and family environment. This study examines recent legislation in France --a pioneer country in this regard-- and Spain, which has followed the trend of its neighboring country. We will finish with the case of Chile, where, due to the influence of the aforementioned regulations, there is a legal bill that seeks to enshrine said right into law. The methodology used is that of legal science. We studied the legal sources, both statutory, case law and collective agreements, as well as Chilean and comparative doctrine. The results aim to present a conceptual construction of this right, determine the rights and obligations of the parties, and distinguish the cases where it does not apply. The conclusions emphasize the importance of enshrining this right into law, and, also, that it does not only contemplate the right not to answer, but also the prohibition to send messages outside working hours, except for strict exceptions.

En este estudio comparativo, los autores analizan los vínculos entre las relaciones laborales y los ajustes salariales o de plantilla tras la crisis de 2007-2008, a partir de dos encuestas comparables sobre empresas de Gran Bretaña (WERS) y de Francia (REPONSE) en 2010-2012. Pese a las diferencias contextuales (composición del tejido productivo, circunstancias temporales e intensidad de la crisis), los vínculos entre las relaciones laborales y las estrategias de ajuste son parecidos (la presencia sindical no logra evitar los ajustes). Por lo tanto, la diferenciación de los sistemas de relaciones laborales no permite explicar las divergencias entre las modalidades de ajuste a nivel macroeconómico. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
