Mayfield K: Understanding Federal
Employment Law

Understanding Federal Employment Law

A Guide for Federal Employees and Their Attorneys

Tradd Street Press

"Wages and the State" is a comprehensive examination of the role of government intervention in the determination of wages and the regulation of labor markets. Written during a transformative period in economic theory and social reform, this work explores the various mechanisms through which the state seeks to influence earnings, including the implementation of minimum wage legislation, the establishment of wage boards, and the use of compulsory arbitration. E.M. Burns provides a rigorous analysis of the economic and social implications of these policies, drawing on global examples to illustrate the complexities of balancing market dynamics with the necessity of social welfare. The book delves into the theoretical foundations and practical applications of wage regulation, assessing how state-mandated standards affect both individual workers and the broader industrial landscape. By scrutinizing the successes and challenges of different regulatory frameworks, Burns offers valuable insights into the evolving relationship between labor, capital, and the public interest. This scholarly work remains a significant contribution to the fields of labor economics and public policy, offering a vital historical perspective on the debates surrounding the living wage and the state's responsibility in ensuring economic equity.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Wages and the State

This book focuses on the evolving definition of an employee, a concept fundamental to labour law protection.As economic and social conditions in labour markets shift, traditional definitions have increasingly proven insufficient to encompass all individuals in need of protection. This has implications in multiple legal domains, including domestic laws, EU law, and international law. It also impacts various facets of labour law, such as social security and taxation. The book contributes to this ongoing debate by offering a novel perspective on the characteristics of integrated working activity, as derived from the European Commission's regulatory practice and the Court of Justice of the European Union's (CJEU) case law on competition law, specifically concerning integrated workers and agents. It critically examines the prevailing 'subordination' paradigm, which has been the traditional basis for classifying workers, but is increasingly inadequate in the modern labour context. Building upon this, the book presents a new theoretical framework for classifying workers within labour law frameworks.This book will be of interest to researchers in the field of EU Law, Labour Law, Competition Law and Business Law.

Introduction to Employment Law

Beiträge zum Arbeitsrecht

Christoph Boës first examines the question of the conditions under which an employee is entitled to receive remuneration even though they were temporarily unable to work due to a disruption in normal business operations (the so-called impossibility of acceptance). Under current law, both sentences 1 and 3 of § 615 BGB appear equally relevant. Which of the two provisions applies depends decisively on whether default in acceptance is excluded by the simultaneous occurrence of impossibility of performance. On the basis of a historical and teleological analysis, the author concludes that this question must be answered in the negative for general contract law as early as 1 January 2002. Accordingly, default in acceptance inherently also covers employment law constellations involving impossibility of acceptance. By contrast, § 615 sentence 3 BGB proves to be merely a declaratory reference to the requirements of sentence 1. Boës then turns to the limits of the employee's claim to continued remuneration. An exclusion of the claim may be considered in particular where the cause of the disruption does not affect only a single business but impacts a large number of businesses on a widespread basis. Up to now, no convincing solution to this problem has been found. The author proposes a delineation based on the concept of default in acceptance, which should capture only those impediments to performance that lie "in the person" of the creditor. The counterpart to this, in the view of the legislature, consists of purely objective impediments to performance. By abstracting from any conduct of the debtor or creditor, such impediments can be identified with legal certainty in individual cases by reference to the specific contractual performance owed.

The SHRM Essential Guide to Employment Law

A revealing look at the decline in formal employment in favor of hiring contractors, freelancers, temps, and marginal workers, who are excluded from traditional benefits and career ladders. Companies cannot exist without workers, but they are increasingly reluctant to have employees. Instead of providing the benefits and protections that have traditionally come with employee status, businesses are turning to tactics that let them treat people as interchangeable parts, to be used and discarded as needed. Drawing on an original survey of over 6,000 workers, Disposable Workers reveals the striking extent of this transformation across the occupational hierarchy, affecting everyone from janitors to nurses. Paul Osterman identifies three distinct categories of disposable workers: contractors, freelancers, and marginal employees. The marginal category, unique to Osterman's analysis, describes workers who are employees from a narrow legal standpoint but are held at arm's length by their firm-left without job security, skill training, or opportunities for promotion. Many low-wage service workers toil in marginal jobs, but so do white-collar professionals such as adjunct university faculty and staff attorneys at law firms. When the three categories are added up, they account for more than 35 percent of the American workforce. Not all disposable workers object to their arrangements. But most contractors and marginal employees would prefer standard employment, and there is a significant cost to their current status. In response, Disposable Workers offers a range of policy recommendations, including mechanisms to prevent over-reliance on contracting and freelancing as well as reforms to improve job quality for part-timers and marginal employees. As the deconstruction of employment affects more and more workers, the importance of such measures will only grow.

The Transformation of Employment

Disposable Workers

This book gives extraordinary new insights into the legal, political and industrial strife in the UK of the early 1970s, focusing on the National Industrial Relations Court and how its independence came to be injured at a time of national crisis. Constitutional and employment lawyers, and indeed anyone interested in the history of the times, will not want to be without this deeply researched yet entertaining work. When the Heath Government came to power in 1970, it set up the National Industrial Relations Court to referee highly contentious disputes between unions and employers. Regarded with hostility by the labour movement from the start, the Court and its President, Sir John Donaldson, faced mounting suspicion, and were regularly front-page news. When Donaldson jailed five dockers in 1972 - the Pentonville Five - for defying the Court's orders, strikes erupted and the docks closed. With the country's food supplies dwindling, a state of emergency loomed. How had it come to this? Could a way through be found? This is a revelatory account of the National Industrial Relations Court's defining crisis, set in the context of a wider, and frequently startling, exposition of how Donaldson went about his role as its President. Peter Oldham KC combines decades of experience as a barrister with archival research to shine a bright new light on how and why the Court found itself doing - in Donaldson's own words - 'rather peculiar things'.

'Rather Peculiar Things'

Law and Politics at the National Industrial Relations Court 1970-75

This open access book examines the evolution of employment tribunals from a speedy, informal process to a system marked by delays and significant financial and human costs. Resolving disputes in the workplace is difficult, expensive and emotionally charged. The current system is broken but what is the answer? Using material from a large-scale empirical study, including a survey of over 200 practitioners, the book examines the problems facing the system. It then considers how these problems are addressed in other jurisdictions both in the UK and in other countries. The book then examines what can be done. It suggests that locating labour law disputes within a contract-tort-human rights frame takes insufficient account of the fundamental emotional and behavioural factors that are in play. The book therefore argues that much can be learnt from the resolution of family law disputes, whether it be in relation to how a relationship that has ended can be satisfactorily concluded, or how a relationship with ongoing ties can be managed going forwards. Utilising this theoretical reframing, the book proposes a blueprint for the future of employment dispute resolution. This book is for policy makers, practitioners and academics looking for a rigorous empirical and theoretical analysis of what has gone wrong with employment dispute resolution and what can be done about it.
