Industrial Democracy and Organizational Change
Abstract
There is a widespread belief that the choices before the Bullock Committee on Industrial Democracy pose a threat to managements, whilst they signal a major benefit to trade unionists. It is the purpose of this paper to demonstrate that the introduction of worker directors poses more problems for unions than for managements and that the union movement may be handed a poisoned chalice. The irony is that the chalice is not a malicious offering by sly capitalists but just what the union movement asked for when pressing for Government action on industrial democracy.
