There has been a fundamental shift in employment
relations in many OECD countries. Institutional
employment relations have been reshaped through a
decline in collective bargaining and union membership, a
rise in employer prerogative favouring individualised and
flexible forms of employment relations.
We address the dearth of research on individual employers
and their associations, their attitudes and behaviours and how
these impact on employment relations issues and trends.

The rather new phenomenon of big data/analytics promises unique advantages to
innovative companies that are willing and able to exploit its capabilities. First-movers and
creative analysts are gaining a competitive edge from utilizing big data, thereby creating the
need for other businesses to follow suit.
Can big data/analytics be considered a game changer in managerial and organisational
decision-making?

them use it effectively?

The public sector consists of a number of
different organisational forms. These forms
vary in the extent to which they are at an arm’slength from Ministers, how they are governed,
and the expectations that apply. Public Service
departments are close to Ministers (part of
the legal Crown), while Crown entities are
stand-alone corporate bodies and operate at
arm’s-length. Most Crown entities are part
of the State services, but Tertiary Education
Institutions are part of the wider State sector.
The wider public sector also includes local
government and district health boards.

disseminated. in particular, we are here to help the business sector understand the
importance of cSR and sustainability initiatives and strategies, and how these can be
employed to enhance their reputation, profitability, and competitiveness.
