This survey examines reasons organizations resort to layoffs, how layoffs are conducted, and the subsequent effects on remaining staff. Survey data collection ended just prior to September 11, and therefore does not reflect conditions following the attacks. However, it does provide valuable information on employee response to layoffs and insight on how human resource professionals may help to assuage the stress of future staff reductions. Among its many conclusions, the survey finds that 20 percent of organizations announced layoffs through group meetings, while five percent issued written notice, and that following the reductions, organizations reported improved profits and productivity, but also increased gossip, decreased morale and loyalty, and a rise in resignations.

ISBN: 1509952993

This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of the international law regime of jurisdictional immunities in employment matters. Three main arguments lie at its heart. Firstly, this study challenges the widely held belief that international immunity law requires staff disputes to be subject to blanket or quasi-absolute immunity from jurisdiction. Secondly, it argues that it is possible to identify well-defined standards of limited immunity to be applied in the context of employment litigation against foreign states, international organizations and diplomatic and consular agents. Thirdly, it maintains that the interaction between the applicable immunity rules and international human rights law gives rise to a legal regime that can provide adequate protection to the rights of employees. A much-needed study into an under-researched field of international and employment law.
