    Expatriate management practices and perceived relevance: Evidence from Finnish expatriates (2001)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Personnel review 30 (2001), S. 554-577 
    Details
    ISSN: 0048-3486
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Expatriate management practices, such as selection, preparation, liaison with home country representatives, performance evaluation, repatriation, and career planning, are often found to fall short of the wishes of the expatriates themselves. Reports the results of a recent survey among Finnish expatriates operating around the world, which examined their opinions of their company's practices. The results indicate that, whilst the expatriates were not entirely satisfied with the way they were managed, the management of Finnish expatriates may be closer to prescriptions of good practice than those reported from elsewhere. Potential reasons for this are explored.

    Flexible working practices and the trade unions (1998)
    Bradford : Emerald
    Employee relations 20 (1998), S. 443-452 
    Details
    ISSN: 0142-5455
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: This article examines the problems that the expansion and spread of flexible working patterns have created for the trade unions. Drawing evidence from across Europe, but focusing on the UK, it is argued that the decline in unionism has a number of antecedents, of which an important factor is the change in the way people are employed. A number of examples of flexible working are examined and the implications of each for union membership and influence are outlined. The paper ends by exploring what the UK unions are doing, and could be doing, to address these issues.

    Identifying good practice in flexible working (1998)
    Bradford : Emerald
    Employee relations 20 (1998), S. 490-503 
    Details
    ISSN: 0142-5455
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: This paper examines flexible wo rking in the workplace using case studies from four different European companies, in three countries. This detailed evidence shows that while flexibility is a major challenge to managements, trade unions and employees, the results are more acceptable to these groups when certain practices are followed. These include its introduction and maintenance through the careful provision of information and consultation with workers, and dealing with flexibility as a process rather than as a one-off cost-cutting exercise. Identifies the implications of this work for managements, trade unions and employees.

    Line management responsibility for HRM: what is happening in Europe? (2003)
    Bradford : Emerald
    Employee relations 25 (2003), S. 228-244 
    Details
    ISSN: 0142-5455
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: The notion of line management accepting greater responsibility for human resource management (HRM) within employing organisations is now received wisdom. This paper presents data on the variation in practice across Europe, noting the evidence that the HR role is increasingly assigned to line managers, and that the extent of such assignment varies from country to country. This first presentation of data from 1999/2000 updates previous work the authors have presented on this topic: the evidence shows that in terms of that assignment, countries tend to remain in the same relationship to each other.

    A comparative analysis of the link between flexibility and HRM strategy (1996)
    Bradford : Emerald
    Employee relations 18 (1996), S. 5-24 
    Details
    ISSN: 0142-5455
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Uses evidence from both quantitative and qualitative research carried out across Europe to show that, while the profile of high and low users of part-time and short-term employment is country specific, is concentrated in the service and public sectors and is correlated with growth and unionization, there is a link between these forms of flexibility and a strategic approach to human resources management. Proposes that previous commentators, who have argued that there is no such link, have often used unrealistically restrictive models of strategy formulation and that a more comprehensive view indicates that flexibility is being used strategically.

    Details
    ISSN: 0048-3486
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Presents a Europe-wide analysis of employment patterns whichreveals three major characteristics of women's employment: occupationalsegregation, part-time working, and pay differentials. Examines howthese manifest themselves as a European-wide phenomenon, and in moredetail looks at how they manifest themselves in France, the UK and TheNetherlands. Presents data to explore the interrelationship of thesethree characteristics and their manifestation against nationalbackgrounds of social and employment legislation and child-careprovision. Concludes that simple correlations do not explain women'sposition in the workforce and that neither structural nor culturaltheories are in themselves enough to understand these complexrelationships.

    The adaptation of expatriates in Europe: Evidence from Finnish companies (1998)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Personnel review 27 (1998), S. 89-103 
    Details
    ISSN: 0048-3486
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Despite an expanding research interest in the topic of expatriation, there is still a significant gap in our understanding of the expatriation process. This article presents recently collected research data on the experiences of Finnish expatriates adjusting to living and working in other European countries. It is argued that the process of adaptation varies considerably between countries and, on that basis, argues that the existing models of adaptation are useful, but themselves need adaptation. The article also offers recommendations for expatriates and for the organisations that employ them.
