Trouble Behind The Great Wall: A Critical Look At Workers’ Rights In China., Scott Walther Jan 2015

Trouble Behind The Great Wall: A Critical Look At Workers’ Rights In China., Scott Walther

The Scholar: St. Mary's Law Review on Race and Social Justice

Globalization has allowed large multinational corporations to shop for low cost labor markets with little intervention by governments. These markets are attractive to multinational corporations because their labor standards and laws tend to be poorly regulated and enforced. Specifically, China’s labor class has been abused and exploited by multinational corporations because of the country’s failure to adequately enforce its labor laws. Turning a blind eye to the violations of workers’ rights in China makes these corporations just as culpable by demanding more from the local manufacturers then evading responsibility for the resulting working conditions. Because multinational corporations do business with …

Employer Reputation At Work, Samuel Estreicher Jan 2009

Employer Reputation At Work, Samuel Estreicher

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

Employer reputational costs - that is, the loss in value of the firm's reputational assets if the firm reneges on its promises to workers, both express and implied, - has played an important role in the economic literature of employment contracts, but this factor has itself generated little sustained analysis. Reputation is often offered as a late-appearing deus ex machina explaining why opportunistic behavior by employers even in internal labor markets is likely to be relatively unimportant. This standard explanation for the enforceability of implicit labor contracts in internal labor markets is problematic for at least three reasons. It assumes …


Sticky Expectations: Responses To Persistent Over-Optimism In Marriage, Employment Contracts, And Credit Card Use, Sean Hannon Williams Jan 2009

Sticky Expectations: Responses To Persistent Over-Optimism In Marriage, Employment Contracts, And Credit Card Use, Sean Hannon Williams

Notre Dame Law Review

Most people underestimate the likelihood that they will experience negative events and overestimate the likelihood that the law will protect them if those events occur. Many of these mispredictions are highly resistant to change even in the face of accurate and available information. This Article illustrates the consequences of these “sticky” expectations using examples from marriage, employment, and credit card regulation. In each of these areas, erroneous expectations create costs. The largest and most common cost is the failure to adequately self-insure against future negative events like divorce, job loss, or high debt. But proposals for correcting irrational expectations can …

A Subjective Approach To Contracts?: How Courts Interpret Employee Handbook Disclaimers, Natalie Bucciarelli Pedersen Jan 2008

A Subjective Approach To Contracts?: How Courts Interpret Employee Handbook Disclaimers, Natalie Bucciarelli Pedersen

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

Although employment law in America generally operates under the presumption that employment for an unspecified term is at-will, recently courts have been creating exceptions to this rule in order to afford employees more legal protections. This paper will focus on the judicially created handbook exception under which courts find that an employee handbook can be contractually binding on an employee and, therefore, may transform an employment relationship from one that is at-will to one that is for-cause. Specifically, the paper will examine cases where courts have analyzed employee handbooks which include a disclaimer enunciating that the handbook is, indeed, not …

From Statute To Contract: The Law Of The Employment Relationship Reconsidered, Eileen Silverstein Jan 2001

From Statute To Contract: The Law Of The Employment Relationship Reconsidered, Eileen Silverstein

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

Most observers would say that the employment relationship is regulated largely by statutes. This Article argues that the statutory regulation of the employment relationship, and its correction of market failures, is disappearing under the cloak of judicial decisions upholding contracts which, in one form or another, find individuals to have waived their and the public's statutory rights. In a variation on the nineteenth century's transformation of the employment relationship from status to contract, we have the contemporary move from statute to contract. Part I of this Article examines how contractual waivers operate within the framework of the statutory regulation of …


Putting Gilmer Where It Belongs: The Faa's Labor Exemption, David E. Feller Jan 2000

Putting Gilmer Where It Belongs: The Faa's Labor Exemption, David E. Feller

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

Relying on the Federal Arbitration Act, the Supreme Court in Gilmer v. Interstate/Johnson-Lane Corp. enforced an agreement to arbitrate all disputes to prevent judicial adjudication of a claim under the Americans With Disabilities Act. That decision has led employers of millions of workers to require an agreement to arbitrate future claims of violations of all statutes protecting employment rights as a condition of getting or keeping a job. This article argues that the exemption in Section 1 of the Act of "contracts of employment of seamen, railroad employees, or any other class of workers engaged in foreign or interstate commerce" …

Labor Contract And External Law: Revisiting The Arbitrator's Scope Of Authority, The, Stephen L. Hayford, Anthony V. Sinicropi

Journal of Dispute Resolution

This article examines the impact of Misco and the attendant body of case law emerging from the U.S. circuit courts of appeals on the labor arbitration process. The ultimate goal of this study is to ascertain whether the public policy exception warrants a rethinking of traditional views of the relationship between collective bargaining agreements and external law, and the manner in which labor arbitrators should juxtapose the two in resolving contractual disputes. The Authors assert that it does.

The Vestiges Of The Texas Employment At-Will Doctrine In The Wake Of Progressive Law: The Employment Handbook Exception Comment., Brian Kennington Lowry Jan 1986

The Vestiges Of The Texas Employment At-Will Doctrine In The Wake Of Progressive Law: The Employment Handbook Exception Comment., Brian Kennington Lowry

St. Mary's Law Journal

Under a traditional approach of the at-will rule, if an employer hires an employee for an indefinite term then the employer may terminate the employee at will. Modification of the at-will rule has gained widespread support throughout the country. A majority of states now follow the progressive view, which allows the employment manual to become part of the labor contract, thereby obligating employers to abide by manual provisions. The progressive view maintains that an employee’s continued service after an employer issues a manual, constitutes ample consideration to make the document binding. Once a court recognizes the existence of independent consideration, …
