Corporate Law, Codes of Conduct and Workers' Rights

Vanisha H Sukdeo

4.9/5 (21739 ratings)

Description:This book critically explores how increased regulation and governance of corporations can be used to help improve the rights of workers amidst an era of union decline. The book posits that soft law techniques such as codes of conduct are more effective in protecting workers than 'hard law' i.e. domestic regulation. It starts by analysing the transnational regulation of corporations and codes of conduct, and then puts forward a model code of conduct that can be used by corporations to help increase the protection of workers. This model is one where, through the use of a monitoring scheme, shareholders, activists and NGOs put pressure on the corporation to reform itself and enact a code which has obligations flowing both ways between the corporation and its employees. The book then looks at the expansions of fiduciary duties and changes to corporate governance, including benefit corporations and how this can be used to increase the rights of workers. It then discusses changes to standard union contracts before concluding with an assessment of the best way forward for workers' rights.By providing a new contribution to the current dialogue on corporate social responsibility and codes of conduct, this book will be a valuable resource for academics working on labour, employment and business law, as well as corporate lawyers.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
