http://www.ilr.cornell.edu/library/research/subjectGuides/industrialRelationsOverview.html
Two new thematic areas have been added.
(1) SMEs (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises)
(2) Temporary Service Work [Refers to Employment Service Agencies often called Temporary Agencies]
In addition, many of the already existing elements have been brought up to date.
This guide is intended to provide key links for a quick overview of issues, data, and developments in U.S. industrial relations. It is produced in cooperation with the < http://www.eurofound.eu.int/> European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions as an aid to research in international and comparative studies. The resources listed are chosen because they are primarily free and authoritative. Other resources may be found by using the < http://www.ilr.cornell.edu/library/research/> Research section of the Catherwood Library web site. The listing of sources is not comprehensive. It is simply a useful place to start.
