How do management and trade union approaches shape the implementation and debugging of new technologies on the shopfloor? Drawing on the industrial relations literature on debugging and four cases of technological change at a major Canadian aerospace manufacturer, I develop a theoretically grounded typology of social patterns of implementation that explains how managerial and union approaches shape the deployment of new technology in the workplace. Managerial strategic choices are shaped by business requirements for control of the labour process and the development of the productive forces. In navigating these pressures, managers may choose to integrate workers into the implementation process or impose change with little or no worker involvement. Unions face a choice between engaging in the processes of technological change on the shopfloor to shape the trajectory of change or remaining disengaged at the point of production and prioritising interventions at other levels, such as formal bargaining. Cross-classifying these approaches generates four distinct types of implementation process each with varying implications for the speed of rollout, the productivity gains realised from a particular technological change, and the autonomy of workers under their new work process. This model reflects the highly contingent and continually shifting dynamics of technological change within the workplace and highlights the limitations of models which generalise patterns of conflict and compromise across entire industries or workplaces.","PeriodicalId":47846,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Industrial Relations","volume":"64 3","pages":"467-479"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/bjir.70058","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148783531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Paid Parental Leaves in Philippine Collective Bargaining Agreements","authors":"Vincent Jerald Ramos","doi":"10.1111/bjir.70061","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1111/bjir.70061","url":null,"abstract":"When statutory work–family entitlements are deemed insufficient, workers often rely on collective bargaining to secure better terms. However, the extent to which unions can deliver higher than statutory benefits remains underexplored, especially in developing countries with decentralized bargaining systems and low union salience. Bridging this gap and drawing on a novel dataset covering all private-sector collective bargaining agreements (CBAs) in the Philippines (2016–2021), this article examines the dynamics and embedding of maternity and paternity leave provisions, or paid parental leaves (PPLs) collectively, focusing on three plausible drivers: leaders’ gender, competing wage provisions and changing policy-related opportunity structures. I specifically test whether female leadership and wage increase provisions ‘crowd in’ PPLs and assess how a 2019 maternity leave reform, which expanded statutory maternity leave entitlements from 8 to 15 weeks, affected PPL inclusion using two identification strategies: a pre–post comparison of multi-plant ultimate parent entities (UPEs) and a regression discontinuity in time (RDiT) design. Results suggest that 56% of CBAs contain reinforcing provisions that merely restate statutory entitlements, whereas only 5% include augmenting provisions that expand them. Neither wage increases nor the 2019 reform crowd out PPLs. Instead, wage increase provisions, both at the extensive and intensive margin, are associated with a higher probability of PPL inclusion. Semi-structured interviews with union leaders and negotiators support a bounded augmentation hypothesis such that in contexts where enforcement of statutory rights is perceived as weak, redundancy operates as a functional deterrent to non-compliance.","PeriodicalId":47846,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Industrial Relations","volume":"64 3","pages":"480-496"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/bjir.70061","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148783532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the last two decades, the development of international standards, legislation and organisational provisions has aimed to tackle the impact and effects of DV in the workplace. While establishing such frameworks is a significant step towards safeguarding victims of violence at work, it is how these policies are enacted which determines their success. At the workplace level, implementation of DV policies through a gendered lens is essential to make substantive progress towards gender equality outcomes. In our article, insights from case study organisations and key informants reveal significant variation in the conceptualisation of gender in relation to DV policies in the workplace. Where key informants, including NGOs, trade unions and government agencies, emphasised a gender-informed approach to DV and the workplace, case study organisations tempered the role of gender, adopting a largely gender-neutral approach in policy enactment. These different approaches are significant for policy implementation, which is both inclusive, particularly of LGBT+ relationships, and contributes to gender equality outcomes.","PeriodicalId":47846,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Industrial Relations","volume":"64 3","pages":"558-569"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/bjir.70064","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148783627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using data from French SBF 120 firms over the period 2002–2020, we show that this form of hybrid representation, combining labour and capital interests, is positively associated with stronger protection of minority shareholders. Importantly, the effect is substantially stronger in family-controlled firms, where concentrated ownership and socioemotional wealth considerations heighten the risk of minority shareholder expropriation and increase the relevance of hybrid employee-shareholder directors as monitors. By contrast, labour board representation shows no systematic relationship with minority shareholder protection, underscoring the distinct governance role played by employee-shareholder representatives. These findings suggest that employee-shareholder board representation functions as a responsible governance mechanism that both strengthens monitoring and signals a commitment to fair treatment of outside investors. More broadly, the results illustrate how emerging forms of worker involvement challenge traditional boundaries between labour and capital in corporate governance, highlighting the need to extend industrial relations theory to account for hybrid stakeholder roles, particularly in family firms.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47846,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Industrial Relations","volume":"64 3","pages":"405-428"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148783733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
