Sanctions for Unlawful Collective Action in the Nordic Countries and Germany

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article compares the industrial relations systems in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Germany with the aim of exploring the approach to remedies and sanctions in order to find out whether national remedies and sanctions for unlawful industrial action could also be applicable to situations of 'unlawful Collective Action under EU law'. In our opinion, it is crucial for such a comparison to focus not just on the legal remedies at hand in the national legal context, but also to take into account the context of industrial relations in which they function. A comparative study of sanctions and remedies in the Nordic countries and Germany opens up a spectrum of rather complicated rules that have been fine-tuned in legal practice at national level over several decades, including rules on defining lawful collective action, mediation, and interim injunctions. The legislator and the courts have built national systems that are based on an acceptance of Collective Action as a legitimate tool for trade unions, a tool that is not allowed to be misused and that has been developed to support and fit into the national industrial relations system and traditions of collective bargaining. The starting point is that unlawful Collective Action should be subject to economic sanctions, but these sanctions should not endanger continued contractual relations between the labour market parties. Economic sanctions are not primarily calculated on the basis of economic loss on the part of the employers, but many factors are taken into account, such as the size of the trade union as well as any mitigating and aggravating factors in accordance with national law and practice. These aspects should be taken into account also in cases of 'EU-unlawful' collective action.

Konstruktion av genus i rätten och samhället : en tvärvetenskaplig studie av svenska kvinnors rätt till jämställdhet i ett formellt jämlikt rättssystem
- 1999

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- On the first of January 1992 the present Equal Opportunity Act came into force. A central aim of this law is to improve the conditions of women's working life. One aspect of the law is the possibility to serve as a mean of shifting the balance of power between the sexes. This is meant to be achieved through the inclusion of requirements for active measures to promote equality. As a part of their statutory obligations, employers with ten or more employees are to draw up an annual so-called equality plan. Economic independence is one of the most important conditions, which is necessary in order for a person to develop into an equal individual in the society of today. Equal pay for equal work has been raised as a feminist demand ever since the industrialisation. The demand for equal pay for equal work is not only a feminist issue but also a question that has its roots in the liberal ideology of equality. The central question of the thesis is if there exist social rules that construct gender in the labour market. The question is illustrated from a feminist position and is discussed against the background of employers' active equality work and the Labour Court's judgement of cases concerning pay-discrimination. The starting-point is the paradox of "equal equality"("jämlik jämställdhet"): whilst there is a formal equality between the sexes i.e. they shall be treated equally, there is still the possibility of the law giving preference to one sex at the expense of the other. The thesis is interdisciplinary in its analysis of the Swedish Equal Opportunity Act. Instead of only discussing traditional questions concerning the law, the intention is to find answers to questions of whether the surrounding society affects the actual observation of the Equal Opportunity Act and the Labour court's application of the same law. If that is the case how does this occurs. The intention is thus to bring together two fields, which have been divided for long, that is the study of law and the study of society.

Denmark, Finland and Sweden: Temporary Agency Work Integrated in the Collective Bargaining System

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Författarna beskriver hur arbete i bemanningsföretag regleras i Danmark, Finland och Sverige, för att visa att anställningsvillkoren för uthyrda arbetstagare kan regleras framgångsrikt genom kollektivavtal, även där det saknas lagreglering på området. En förutsättning är dock att det finns ett starkt kollektivavtalssystem som täcker den "traditionella" arbetsmarknaden.

Kan kollektivavtalen förbli nationella?
- 2008
-
Ingår i: Vems ordning och reda?. - : Agora, Stockholm. - 9789189483620
-
Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Den fria rörligheten för tjänster och kapital medför en press på de nationella kollektivavtalen. Frågan blir då om man kan hålla fast vid kollektivavtal som inte gäller längre än till nationsgränsen. I kapitlet analyserar författarna tendenser och faktiska och rättsliga förhållanden som påverkar möjligheten att göra kollektivavtalen gränsöverskridande.

Public Procurement and Labour Rights : Governance by Scaremongering?
- 2012
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- With the Rüfffert case, the CJEU demonstrated that the Posting of Workers Directive puts some restraints on Member States not only in their capacity as legislators, but also as buyers and contractors on the market. However, also the special EU regime on public procurement confronts Member States authorities with challenges when they want to make sure that their contractors live up to certain standards as employers. The procurement regime is technical and extremely complex, and it is partly unclear – and controversial – what is allowed in this respect.In this chapter we are exploring how labour rights are dealt with in the context of public procurement, and what implications the multi level structure of the procurement regime has had for this.

Transparens, likabehandling och kollektivavtalsenliga villkor vid offentlig upphandling – en svårlöst ekvation

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Att konkurrensen om de offentliga kontrakten medför en ökande press på arbets- och anställningsvillkor har länge stått klart – ibland till den grad att man kan tala om social dumpning. Med 2014 års nya upphandlingsdirektiv har även EU:s lagstiftare erkänt detta faktum och infört en skyldighet for medlemsstaterna att säkerställa att leverantörerna uppfyller de arbetsrättsliga skyldigheter som följer av lag, kollektivavtal och vissa internationella konventioner.Samtidigt måste det göras med respekt för de EU-rättsliga principerna om likabehandling, proportionalitet och transparens (öppenhet). De nordiska länderna har valt helt olika sätt att lösa denna komplicerade ekvation – från Danmarks till synes sorglösa inställning till kravet på transparens, till svenskarnas våndor över hur man ska få kollektivavtalssystemet och EU-rätten att passa ihop. I det följande granskar vi vad dessa krav innebär och hur de nordiska länderna försöker tillgodose dem i sina lagar om upphandling.
