Abstract

This article considers issues of workplace union strategy in a study of a National Health Service hospital trust in which the focus of the investigation is the 'employee voice' gains, or losses, arising from partnership and worker participation. The impact of government policy on local management and, in turn, employees' opportunities to participate in organisational decision making is therefore the main theme explored in this analysis.

106. Partnership, high performance work systems and quality of working life

Abstract

The paper measures the effects of workplace partnership and selected high performance work practices on four different dimensions of employee experience. Whilst the partnership-high performance work systems nexus seems to have little impact on employees' job satisfaction or sense of attachment, it does, however, have a negative impact on both workplace stress and employee evaluations of union performance. The analysis thus questions common assumptions about the inevitability of 'mutual gain' and the necessity of employer/unionpartnership. Introduction and research

109. Employee representation and partnership in the non-union sector: a paradox of intention?

Author

Upchurch, Martin, Danford, Andy, Richardson, Mike, and Tailby, Stephanie

Abstract

Non-union forms of employee representation have become increasingly prominent in UK workplaces in the last 15 years. In addition, partnership working has been encouraged by New Labour, the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, the Confederation of British Industry and the TUC as a route to higher commitment and higher individual and organisational performance. These trends have been further encouraged by recent European Union legislation. This article seeks to examine the implied linkages between non-union employee representative\ud mechanisms and partnership working and their influence on the effectiveness of employee voice as a conduit of high performance. The article is based on a case study\ud organisation from within the UK finance sector, and data are drawn from semistructured interviews with managers and staff and a survey of employee attitudes. The article concludes that employers’ attempts to utilise a non-union partnership framework for organisational gain are severely constrained by structural limitations on effective employee voice.

113. Profiles of union workplace representatives : evidence from three unions in SW England

Author

Upchurch, Martin, Danford, Andy, and Richardson, Mike

Abstract

As part of a larger research project the authors are examining union responses to workplace and corporate organisational change in the South West of England. This study has concentrated on three unions, the MSF, GMB and AEEU, and has comprised over 100 interviews of workplace representatives from the three unions conducted between 1998 and 2000 throughout the region across a representative range of industrial sectors. A complement to this qualitative research has been analysis of 356 questionnaire returns, concentrating on workplace union changes as well as profiles of the representatives and stewards themselves. Of particular interest have been the personal profiles of workplace representatives and their interaction with members. It is this data which is presented with some commentary in this Research Note.

144. Workplace partnership and professional workers: ‘about as useful as a chocolate teapot’?

Abstract

The labour processes and employment relations that characterise the working conditions of many professional workers might be expected to generate the high-trust environment required for cooperative, partnership-style management–union relations. However, few studies have focused on partnership in ‘professional’ and ‘expert labour’ employment sectors. This paper assesses the efficacy of partnership through the lens of manager, union and employee attitudes at three cases studies notable for employing high numbers of staff in the professions and ‘marginal professions’. The analysis focuses on the nature of the cooperative relationship between union representatives and management (categorised as either ‘nurtured’ or ‘coerced partnership’), whether unions in these settings are able to expand the range and scope of their influence, and whether professional workers themselves display positive attitudes to cooperative union forms. The study finds that in all three cases the ‘partnership’ union is seen by its members as a weak, insubordinate entity in terms of collective influence over management policy though in the two ‘nurturing’ cases they see it to be more effective for individual member representation.
