ABSTRACTThe research objective is to study and determine the level of non-standard employment relationships in Nigeria and Indonesia. The employment relationship is not as standard as is initial workers, which are contract employees and outsourcing. The nonstandard employment relationship are reinforced by the number of unemployment in Nigeria and Indonesia which are every form of nonstandard employment will offer the challenge but it will tend to have the great of losses.The results of the study found that non-standard employment relationships in Nigeria and Indonesia in general is not different. Most employees are not standard work is in positions which have low skills, without a career path and can harm the development of human resources for both companies or clients. On the other hand, who had a temporary job as an employee or non-standard employee is better than not having a job. Therefore the unemployment rate can be reduced and can significantly increase the country's economic growth.Keywords: Unemployement, nonstandard employment relations, contract employees, outsourcing, country’s economic growth HUBUNGAN INDUSTRIAL:  PERBANDINGAN HUBUNGAN KERJA TIDAK STANDAR DI NEGARA NIGERIA DAN INDONESIA ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari dan menentukan tingkat hubungan kerja tidak standar di Nigeria dan Indonesia. Hubungan kerja tidak standar yang dimaksud sebagai karyawan kontrak dan outsourcing. Hubungan kerja tidak standar diperkuat oleh jumlah pengangguran yang ada di Nigeria dan Indonesia dimana setiap bentuk pekerjaan tidak standar menawarkan tantangan namun akan cenderung memiliki banyak kerugian. Hasil penelitian ditemukan bahwa hubungan kerja tidak standar di Nigeria dan Indonesia pada umumnya tidak berbeda. Sebagian besar karyawan merupakan pekerja tidak standar yang memiliki keterampilan kerja yang rendah, tanpa memiliki jenjang karir dan dapat membahayakan perkembangan sumber daya manusia baik bagi perusahaan maupun klien.  Di sisi lain, memiliki pekerjaan sementara baik sebagai pekerja standar ataupun pekerja tidak standar akan lebih baik daripada tidak memiliki pekerjaan. Dengan demikian tingkat pengangguran dapat dikurangi dan secara signifikan dapat meningkatkan pertumbuhan ekonomi negara.Kata kunci: Pengangguran, hubungan kerja tidak standar, karyawan kontrak, outsourcing,                    pertumbuhan ekonomi negara.

AbstractPrecarious work is a crucial impediment to substantive equality. This paper examines the regulation of precariousness in the light of two recent trends: the casualisation of employment in the wake of the crisis, and global efforts to regulate domestic work (e.g. ILO Domestic Workers Convention (No 189)). It takes these developments as an opportunity to explore the effective regulation of contemporary labour markets, and in particular the role of the Standard Employment Relationship (SER). The paper returns to two prominent accounts of the SER: Vosko's critique of SER-centrism in non-standard work regulation and Bosch's notion of the flexible-SER. It argues that the domestic work debates confirm the value of a modernised SER in its temporal dimensions. Yet the literature on precarious work tends to focus on regulatory settings in which the standard model remains dominant. The key contemporary challenge is to identify strategies that will embed this model in settings in which it is in decline or was never deep-rooted. Drawing on the notion of ‘reconstructive labour law’, the paper argues for innovative legal mechanisms that prompt the construction of flexibilised SER-type relationships. It concludes, however, that for these strategies to be effective, casualisation must be identified not only in contractual arrangements but also in working-time practices.

This paper seeks to take a look at recent labour law reforms in a number of selected CEE countries, and to examine the manner, in which the equation of standard employment relationship and the dynamics of collective bargaining processes have changed. The 1st section discusses the policy goals as well as drivers of legal changes, which have aff ected and guided recent labour law reforms in the sub-region. External infl uences over shaping of the new policy visions and recovery policies are also examined here. The 2nd section examines recent trends in regulating standard and non-standard employment relationship, as well as the collective agreements as determinants of working conditions and terms of employment. It also analyses the new approaches in the implementation of the guiding principles of collective bargaining, including the autonomy of the parties, and the principle of favourability. Furthermore, the 3rd section seeks to explore what the future looks like by traveling the paths opened by the works of the ILO Global Commission on the Future of Work, with a special focus on the Universal Labour Guarantee. Finally, a number of conclusions are drawn on the basis of the analysed data and policies.

This study, and the project behind it, is an attempt 100 years on from the Webbs to comprehensively assess the health of the industrial relations/employment relations system by ‘taking the pulse’ of the employment relationship. If, as we argue, the relative health and performance of the employment relationship remains the key dependent variable of the field of employment relations today, there have been remarkably few attempts to audit and measure its critical dimensions. This study, founded on a large representative survey of workers and managers across Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada, attempts to do just that, and produces in this article, results of those survey questions for Australia. The article is novel since this kind of employment diagnostic is based on a unique nationally representative survey of employers and employees. The study is also innovative, in that it presents the results of the health of the system in the form of an employment relations scorecard and is the first such attempt to do so in industrial relations.

The Employment Relations Act 2000 provides options for interventions to support employment relationships and to prevent and solve employment relationship problems. These interventions follow a hierarchy of roles established by the Act, involving the availability of mediation services in all its forms (including best practice information and assistance), the investigative role of the Employment Relations Authority, and the judicial role of the Employment Court. These problem solving processes act as a continuum, with people able to move between the different, but complementary, forms of assistance. This paper discusses those processes in terms of the services that are available, developments in the first two years under the Employment Relations Act, and the challenges ahead.

The paper deals with the possibility of division of rights and obligations arising from employment contracts for one employee for several employment relationships part-time. The conclusion of the pre-contractual process in employment relations is the conclusion of an employment contract, which establishes an employment relationship. Within it, one undertakes to perform dependent work for pay for the other. It is a socio-economic relationship, because its nature is not only property but also personal, not only in the sense of personal performance of work. By including the employee in the organizational structure of the employer, a close personal bond is established, which activates a whole range of subjective rights and legal obligations of the subjects of employment.

ABSTRAKLegally that the relationship between workers and employers are the same even though the socio-economic position between employees and employers is different, the nature of the employment law has resulted in employment relationships are not always harmonious between workers / unions and employers in industrial relations, the number of employers who eliminate or reduce workers' rights to conduct collective bargaining (PB) to deviate the collective Labour agreement (CLA), whereas in the company there has been a Labour agreement (CLA) is still valid by reason of the collective labor agreement (CLA), which is not in accordance with laws and regulations.The conclusion obtained is that the position of the Collective Agreement (PB) as a Source of Law Autonomous Employment Law is part of the Collective Labor Agreement for the duration of the validity of PKB there are things that do not fit in the employment relationship so it is possible made the Collective Agreement which will then be included in the change PKB with the provisions PB must be registered at the Industrial Relations court, the legal effect of the NT tertentangan with CLA, PB may be declared null and void, cancellation of PB can be done through the judicial land in the area of collective agreements made, since the Industrial Relations court has no competence to resolve disputes cancellation of the Collective Agreement. Keywords: Position, the Collective Agreement, Working Agreement

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to review “institutional experimentation” for protecting workers in response to the contraction of the standard employment relationship and the corresponding rise of “non-standard” forms of paid work.Design/methodology/approachThe paper draws on the existing research and knowledge base of the authors as well as a thorough review of the extant literature relating to: non-standard employment contracts; sources of labour supply engaging in non-standard work; exogenous pressures on the employment relationship; intermediaries that separate the management from the control of labour; and entities that subvert the employment relationship.FindingsPost-war industrial relations scholars characterised the traditional regulatory model of collective bargaining and the standard employment contract as a “web of rules”. As work relations have become more market mediated, new institutional arrangements have developed to govern these relations and regulate the terms of engagement. The paper argues that these are indicative of an emergent “patchwork of rules” which are instructive for scholars, policymakers, workers’ representatives and employers seeking solutions to the contraction of the traditional regulatory model.Research limitations/implicationsWhile the review of the institutional experimentation is potentially instructive for developing solutions to gaps in labour regulation, a drawback of this approach is that there are limits to the realisation of policy transfer. Some of the initiatives discussed in the paper may be more effective than others for protecting workers on non-standard contracts, but further research is necessary to test their effectiveness including in different contexts.Social implicationsThe findings indicate that a task ahead for the representatives of government, labour and business is to determine how to adapt the emergent patchwork of rules to protect workers from the new vulnerabilities created by, for example, employer extraction and exploitation of their individual bio data, social media data and, not far off, their personal genome sequence.Originality/valueThe paper addresses calls to examine the “institutional intersections” that have informed the changing ways that work is conducted and regulated. These intersections transcend international, national, sectoral and local units of analysis, as well as supply chains, fissured organisational dynamics, intermediaries and online platforms. The analysis also encompasses the broad range of stakeholders including businesses, labour and community groups, nongovernmental organisations and online communities that have influenced changing institutional approaches to employment protection.

The past decade has seen an increase in ‘platform companies’ functioning as the intermediary between workers and customers.The way these companies structure the labour process has significant implications for working conditions. In this article, we ask: In what ways does platform work in Norway differ from standard employment relationships? And do different employment strategies of platform companies put workers in precarious situations? The article builds on qualitative interviews with CEOs of platform companies in Norway, and aims to contribute to the literature by formulating a typology of the employment models of platform companies emerging in the Nordic countries. The platforms’ employment models are compared to the standard employment relationship and precariousness. Finally, the article suggests that institutions matter for why some platform companies adopt elements of the standard employment relationships as they appear in the Nordic labour market models, and discusses the implications of this.

This article discusses the changes in employment relationships under globalisation and, more specifically, the phenomenon of triangulation and the attendant proliferation of employment grey zones. The first section sets out a framework for analysis of the conditions governing the organisation and exercise of power by employers in such situations by reviewing two types of relationship: an agency relationship and a relationship of intervention. Drawing on fieldwork and a number of case studies, the second part examines how human resources managers in large corporations use their powers of discretion in these situations. The third part analyses this particular form of regulation with regard to the nature of the subordinate relationship of employees to their employers. We show that the existence of employment grey zones reflects not so much a watering down of that subordinate relationship as a shift towards new values and new means of expression.
