Summary:

"Globalization of the economy and increased integration in Europe has led to a stronger focus on EU labour, employment and equality law...As well as assessing the 'state of the art', [the authors] identify key research questions for the future. Split into four distinct parts, this Handbook provides a comprehensive examination of the major topics in EU labour, employment and equality law. Part one addresses cross-cutting themes, such as the relationship between EU law and national law, the role of human rights in EU labour law, and the impact of austerity measures. The subsequent parts offer...treatments of specific topics: part two focuses on various issues in individual and collective labour law at EU level, including working time and job security; part three provides an analysis of collective labour law, including its implications for trade unions and industrial democracy; and part four explores the EU's interventions in equality law, considering its impact across a range of different protected characteristics."-- Back cover.
