OverviewThe Employment Relationship presents a controversial perspective on an area hitherto dominated by industrial relation experts and radical sociological theorists. Peter Herriot argues that the main culprits in this situation are the top managers who fail to treat employment as a relationship and employees as individuals. He points to three issues where dialogue is crucial: employee compliance, contractual inequalities and the need for organisational change. The Employment Relationship will make essential reading for all managers and occupational psychologists. It will also be of interest to students of work psychology, human resource management or organisational behaviour.
