New research paper: “The Digitalisation of Tools for Workers’ Representation in Europe: A First Approach”
A new research paper has been published by José María Miranda Boto and Elisabeth Brameshuber in the journal Bialystok Legal Studies / Białostockie Studia Prawnicze (2024, 2).
Abstract: The unstoppable digitalisation of work also brings with it alterations at the collective level of labour relations. On the one hand, the dispersal of the workforce entails the breaking of traditional ties of proximity, which engendered solidarity among workers. On the other hand, however, new technologies can contribute decisively to the development of representation activity, also being a fruitful field for collective bargaining. Through a synthetic examination of comparative law, several of these possibilities are presented, and how they fit with Spanish law is analysed. Among the subjects addressed are digital tools that can favour tasks in representation. In addition to the legislative dimension, the study takes into account the latest developments in jurisprudence and collective bargaining.
