- the social situation of migrant workers;
- new phenomena brought about by the digital age;
- temporary agency work;
- harmonizing family and working lives;
- sport and labour law;
- the role of European Works Councils; and
- social and labour reforms.
One aspect that is covered in these chapters is the current challenges to social security that are brought by migration as an intensified phenomenon in Europe of today. Furthermore the concept of harmonizing family and working lives is discussed from the perspective of ongoing amendments of the EU legislation. How this will help you: Throughout this book, the changing role of the state and reform agendas is emphasized which helps readers stay updated with the current trends in this legislation. Although the focus is on the labour law in Europe, there is an abundance of comparative detail, allowing for global application. As a matchless, up-to-date overview and analysis of how new and emerging forms of employment and industrial relations impact employee security, this book serves as a guide to practitioners, academics, and policymakers concerned with ensuring the persistence of fair and viable standards in labour and social security law.
