This book employs an innovative approach to explore the topic of
flexicurity and related changes in the working world, the
importance of which for the overall economic and social development
is gradually being recognised. It focuses on the changing nature of
work and its impact on EU law and national labour and social
security laws. Though the transformation of regulatory and
institutional frameworks of labour relations follows different
patterns in different EU Member States, it is nevertheless a common
phenomenon that offers an excellent opportunity for mutual learning
experiences and comparing notes on best practices. Taking these
ideas as a starting point, the book presents a collection of
research on various aspects and implications of changing labour
relations in the EU Member States. The opening chapters address the
internal market dimension of the transformation of employment
relations by investigating how social dumping, integration of
migrant workers, and cross-border mergers influence national labour
policies and laws. The book further analyses linguistic and
terminological challenges in the field of labour law in the EU's
multi-lingual legal environment. Subsequent chapters cover various
theoretical and practical issues, such as the impact of
chain-liability regulatory models on the legal situation of workers
in subcontracting networks, and modern work arrangements in the
collaborative or 'gig' economy. Other chapters are dedicated to
issues of jurisdiction and law applicable to individual employment
contracts, as well as alternative resolution mechanisms in labour
disputes. The next section offers fresh insights on and a critical
overview of the well-known Danish and Dutch models of flexicurity,
often cited as role models for reforms of labour markets in other
EU Member States. Three individual chapters investigate specific
aspects of flexicurity in Croatia, in terms of individual
dismissals, life-long learning and the impact of non-standard
employment on future pension entitlements. One paper explores
temporary agency work in Germany as an important instrument of
flexicurity, while another discusses various forms of work used in
Slovenia in the context of flexibilization of work relations. Many
challenges still lie ahead, and the primary aim of this book is to
provide a solid basis for informed future discussions.
