BU5027: The Employment Relationship: The Domestic and International Context
Professor Keith Bender Honorary Dr. Luana Ozemela
Topic: A key aspect of the employment relationship is to minimise the turnover of staff given the costliness of recruiting workers for firms and the cost of job search for workers. This concept is best described in the ‘Exit-Voice’ hypothesis.
Describe this theory and the inherent trade-off between exit and voice.
Take a particular Employment Relations tool and describe how it can be used to enhance voice, identifying what conditions need to be in place for it to be effective and what will happen if these conditions are not in place.
Finally, choose one country (either that we studied or another country) and discuss how its typical employment relationship either helps or hinders voice.
Be sure to engage with the employment relations research in developing your essay.
