Journal description
Employee Relations is a leading international academic journal focusing on the importance of understanding employment and HR challenges and debates within the context of contemporary national and international labour markets.
Embedded understanding is key to merging organizational, management and employee needs to achieve optimum performance, commitment and effectiveness. International issues are covered in all areas of HR, employment and industrial relations. A stringent double-blind review of each paper is undertaken to ensure its relevance and validity. Employee Relations continuously receives, and welcomes, global authorship.
Over the course of its history Employee Relations has developed a reputation for publishing articles by the world’s leading academic thinkers on HRM, employment and industrial relations. It has also successfully combined this heritage with providing an accessible, though rigorously assessed, platform for early career research. Its international scope and focus on contemporary employment issues within their institutional and national contexts is seen through individual articles and in the highly acclaimed Special Issues which facilitate more detailed treatment of prominent challenges and debates within the field of work and employment.
