    INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS

    Presented By :Shivraj Singh


    Rathore

    Globalization: What does it


    means?
    The processes that brings people of different
    countries closer together, the final result
    being an absence of barriers to economy of
    social relations.
    Occurs through closer international economic
    integration of trade and investment
    Such as Vietnam and India, Hong Kong and
    Singapore, South Korea and Japan

    IR IN THE ERA OF GLOBALISATION


    (1991-onwards)
    The LPG Era has brought significant changes in the Social;
    Economic;
    Technological; and
    Political environment of Indian business.
    And it has a huge impact on the industries and the
    relations existing within them.

    IMPACT OF GLOBALISATION ON INDUSTRIES AND


    THEIR RELATIONS

    1.Integration of economies.
    2.Global benchmarking.
    3.Change in management style.
    4.Increase in education level.
    5.Change in skill level.
    6.Knowledge workers.
    7.Workers participation in management.

    Industrial relations during


    colonial period
    Industrial relations in by- product of Industrial Revolution and it owes its origin
    from excessive exploitation of workers by the owners of industries.
    The relationship was that of two unequal- the powerful employers and
    powerless workers.
    It was a master servant relationship which continued for a long.
    In early stage, the Government adopted the policy of Laissez- faire and later
    on, enforced penalty on workers for breaches of contract.
    Some attempts were made to form trade unions, which were resisted and
    crushed by the employers.
    The First World War is the first milestone enroute to industrial relations in India.
    In certain social, economic and political conditions, which raised new hopes
    among workers in industries.
    It was for the first time, that workers realized their importance that unless they
    produce goods required for wars, the wars cannot be fought successfully.

    After war, prices of consumer goods also become dearer.


    This lead to intense labour unrest because workers earnings did
    not keep pace with the rising prices and their aspirations.
    Many other events happened which accelerated the pace of
    industrial relations during the period1. Establishment of ILO(1919) and the influence of its conventions
    and recommendations.
    2. Formation of the Labour Party Govt. in U.K in 1924.
    3. The Indian Trade Union Act of 1926.
    4. The Trade Dispute Act, 1929.
    5. Formation of Royal Commission on labour, 1929-31, which made
    a comprehensive study of Indian Labour problem regarding
    health,
    safety
    and
    welfare
    of
    workers
    and
    made
    recommendations of far- reaching consequences.

    IR in Post-Globalization Period
    from 1991 to till date
    The requirements a of global competitiveness are of international
    standards in quantity, quality, cost- effectiveness and customers.
    This in turn, requires introduction of state of art technology,
    followed by innovation, creativity and strategic alignment of
    divergent resources to create performing climate.
    Such a performing climate requires a dynamic and synergetic
    relationship.
    The tradition of IR is under tremendous pressure, because it was
    made to cater to the requirements of a controlled, protected and
    regulated market and was unable to address the new imperatives
    of a competitive, global market.

    A tug of war is going on between forces of change and


    forces of inertia.
    The market requires a flexible, and aggressive employee
    relations approach, while traditional industrial relation
    wants to remain adhered to status quo without any
    change.
    Traditional institutions of IR are losing their importance
    and relevance. Trade unions are marginalized and kept
    outside the mainstream of business.
    Strike is losing its cutting edge.
    Collective bargaining is being replaced by collaborative
    and productivity and individual bargaining.
