New Patterns of Industrial Relations Practice in West Midlands Companies
64
Abstract
The advent of a worldwide economic recession has weakened union power and put pressure on management to increase efficiency or “die”. The emergence of Thatcherism has reinforced this. The study examines the impact of this new context on management attitudes, behaviour and overall style at the workplace level.
