The Potential For State Labor Law: The New York Greengrocer Code Of Conduct, Matthew T. Bodie Jan 2003

The Potential For State Labor Law: The New York Greengrocer Code Of Conduct, Matthew T. Bodie

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

While labor law academics bemoan the ossification of federal labor law, the potential for state labor law has just begun to be explored. This Article takes a closer look at the New York Greengrocer Code of Conduct, a unique approach to the problem of industry-wide employment law violations. The Code, negotiated by the New York Attorney General's Office in conjunction with groups representing workers and greengrocers, provides a set of minimum terms and conditions for grocers which to some extent go beyond statutory requirements. In return for agreeing to the Code, grocers can avoid liability for past state employment law …

The Legitimacy Of Labor Unions, Peter Levine Jan 2001

The Legitimacy Of Labor Unions, Peter Levine

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

Labor unions do not have a well-understood rationale, as do capitalist enterprises, strictly voluntary associations, and democratic states. They are nonprofit associations, but also coercive economic agents; working-class communities, but also powerful special interests; embodiments of rights, but also incompatible with certain individual freedoms. These tensions result in an ambivalent legal status. For instance, unions may collect fees from (and negotiate contracts for) certain employees without obtaining their individual consent, yet no one can be required to belong to a union. Unions are exempt from antitrust laws and may restrain competition, but only in particular ways. We cannot assess these …

Handling Workplace Conflict: Why Transformative Mediation?, Robert A. Baruch Bush Jan 2001

Handling Workplace Conflict: Why Transformative Mediation?, Robert A. Baruch Bush

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

The several articles in this Symposium represent a unique and multifaceted examination of the largest workplace conflict mediation program in the United States-the United States Postal Service's ("Postal Service") REDRESS Tm Program. Begun on a pilot basis in 1994 as part of the settlement of a class-action discrimination lawsuit, REDRESST was subsequently expanded to a nationwide program for mediation of discrimination claims, available to all of the Postal Service's over 800,000 employees. However, it is not only the size of the REDRESSTM Program that makes it a remarkable development in the field of workplace conflict resolution-and the field of mediation …


Transformative Mediation In The Usps Redress Program: Observations Of Adr Specialists, Lisa B. Bingham, Tina Nabatchi Jan 2001

Transformative Mediation In The Usps Redress Program: Observations Of Adr Specialists, Lisa B. Bingham, Tina Nabatchi

Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal

The transformative model of mediation, although well established in the mediation of family and community disputes, is a relatively new approach to dispute resolution in employment settings. In contrast to traditional mediation approaches that focus on problem-solving, transformative mediation seeks to provide opportunities for empowerment and recognition among the disputing parties. In 1998, the United States Postal Service ("USPS") implemented a nation-wide mediation program called REDRESS (TM) (Resolve Employment Disputes Reach Equitable Solutions Swiftly) based on this model. This study takes the form of a process evaluation. It focuses on this question: How well does employment mediation practice in the …


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 …
