Main themes

To familiarise students with the field of industrial relations, including the collective management of labour relations in Belgium.
This aim will be achieved through:
1. detailed information in the field of industrial relations: issues and objectives, actors and the ways in which they intervene, institutional and legal mechanisms, and labour disputes;
2. an analysis of the development of the various issues.
The course will seek to demonstrate how the logic of industrial relations must be seen as an internal and external element of constraint and dynamic in the development of a company strategy.
