The fourth edition of Industrial Relations in Canada examines the three groups at the heart of this human resources management field--labour (employees and their associations), management (employers and their associations), and government and associated agencies--and the current challenges facing all three. A new author joins this fourth edition, bringing new perspectives and further balancing the text's coverage of both union and management perspectives, as all authors have been practitioners in the field. Part of the Nelson Education Series in Human Resources Management and built on a solid academic foundation, this textbook provides a comprehensive overview of industrial relations that will have students excited about this changing field.

This work examines the responses of unions and workers to regional integration and restructuring in the automobile industry in North and Central America. The focus is on the automobile industry in Mexico, which, because of its size and importance, is viewed as a strategic sector of the Mexican economy and was the focal point of talks between the US, Canada and Mexico during negotiations on NAFTA. Focusing on the period from 1980, John P. Tuman examines the changes implemented by firms to promote export production, he explores reasons for the variation in labour responses to restructuring, and he discusses the prospects for cross-border organizing and co-operation among automobile workers in Canada, the US and Mexico.

The Canadian economy is undergoing profound and continuous structural changes that are re-ordering not only the basis of economic activity in this country, but also the relationships between business, labour and government. The process of economic restructuring requires changes in institutions and organizations to make an effective transition to a new economic environment. This report is a recognition that we have to search for better ways of working together. This report aims to provide advice to governments on how best they can promote and support business-labour approaches to economic restructuring. The report is organized into two main parts. The first section outlines a set of general principles developed by the CLMPC Economic Restructuring Committee common to successful joint business-labour initiatives. The second part puts forth a set of 12 recommendations on the roles of government in supporting business-labour approaches to economic restructuring.
