the global workplace
With the forces of globalization as a backdrop, this casebook develops labor and
employment law in the context of the national laws of nine countries important
to the global economy – the United States, Canada, Mexico, the ., Germany,
France, China, Japan, and India. These national jurisdictions are highlighted
by considering international labor standards promulgated by the International
anization as well as the rulings and standards that emerge from two
very different regional trade arrangements – the labor side accord to NAFTA and
the European Union. Across all these different sources of law, this book considers
the law of individual employment, collective labor laws dealing with unionization
as well as the laws against discrimination, the laws protecting privacy, and the
systems used to resolve labor and employment disputes. This is the first set of
law school course materials in English covering international parative
employment and labor law.
