The Management of Financial Resources: Post-Merger Structural Choice in a Blue Collar UnionCorrie, Joan, n/a January 2007 (has links)
Union mergers have occurred since unions were first established. Research on this particular aspect of the union movement is well established in the UK and the US. However, there are few studies of Australian union mergers, despite the fact that many Australian unions took part in a 'merger boom' in the 1980s and 1990s. Two of the few Australian studies, Hocking (1996) and Campling and Michelson (1998), utilised resource dependency and strategic choice theories to ascertain the why and how of union mergers. However, these Australian studies, like their UK and US counterparts, cease with the completion of the merger and, consequently, there is little known of the post-merger operation of unions. How does the integration of the merger partners - with their traditions, structures and financial arrangements - occur? This thesis rectifies the gap in the literature by means of a qualitative, longitudinal study of the merger and post-merger activities of one of the largest and most prominent unions in Australia, the Australian Manufacturing Workers' Union (AMWU), as it moved towards complete amalgamation. The thesis examines the period 1995-2003. Four of the five pre-merger unions faced a serious and continued decline in membership and all faced mounting financial deficits. From 1995, the year the various mergers were completed, membership decline continued and financial resources dwindled further, providing the impetus for further and significant post-merger changes. The analysis demonstrates that, due to a continuing lack of financial resources, the AMWU leadership initiated a budgeting strategy which influenced the actions and changed the opinions of many of the Union's officials, guiding them towards accepting integration of the constituent divisions and near complete amalgamation. The thesis answers the questions of why and how a union moves from a negotiated federated structure towards amalgamation, post merger, with a particular focus on financial decision-making processes.

Die stryd van die Afrikaner in die Suid-Afrikaanse Mynwerkersunie aan die Witwatersrand, 1936-194825 February 2015 (has links)
M.A. / During the 1930's industrial expansion which marked the rise of industrial trade unions also precipitated the process of urbanization and proletarianization of large numbers of rural Afrikaans-speaking migrants, resulting into acute poverty and unemployment. The Labour Party, dominating the established trade union movement during this period, drew its support from the craft unions in the Trades and Labour Council-structure which strongly opposed the new rural migrants clustering around the least skilled and lowest paid occupations in the rising industrial unions. At the same time foreign and communistic influences also prevailed in the existing trade unions. National-minded leaders who became increasingly concerned with the serious effects of proletarianization set out to smash the ideology of class which threatened national unity. Thus their endeavour to capture working class support for Afrikaner na- tionalism by means of organizing the Afrikaans-speaking workers in right wing inclined trade unions which they labelled 'Christian National'. As control over trade union funds also proved to be a valuable source of income, the mobilization of the Afrikaner worker provided both the means of developing Afrikaner capital and gaining political power. In October 1936 the Nasionale Raad van Trustees (NRT) was formed to provide the financial backing for Afrikaner trade unions and to act as liaison body with the Afrikaner nation. It's aim to break the power which the Labour Party had gained in South African politics led to the organization of Afrikaans speaking mine workers in the Trades and Labour Councils' largest non-craft affiliate, the Mine Workers Union (MWU). This resulted in the formation of the Afrikanerbond van Myn- werkers (ABM) as a alternative union to the MWU during November 1936.

Loss to follow up from HIV care among workers in the South African Clothing And Textile Workers Union in Ethekwini District, Kwazulu NatalZiqubu, Sibusisiswe Noluthando January 2019 (has links)
Magister Public Health - MPH / Background: Human Immune Deficiency Virus (HIV) is a public health challenge worldwide. Antiretroviral therapies (ART) are medications that treat HIV virus infection by suppressing the virus and stopping progression of HIV disease, and that improve quality of life. People initiated on ART need to adhere to their treatment for the rest of their lives.
In 2016, there were 7,1 million people (age 15-49) in South Africa living with HIV, representing 19 % of the global HIV burden, with 56% of the adults on ART. Life expectancy of South Africans for both males and females improved between 2009 and 2011 because of ART treatment. People lost to follow up while on ART compromise their own health and the long term positive benefits of the ART regimen, and hence there is a growing emphasis to improve the retention of people who are already on treatment.
Aim: This study was conducted examining HIV positive South African Clothing and Textile Workers Union (SACTWU) members who are currently on ART treatment and had previously been lost to follow up (LTFU) from ART care. The study aimed to explore factors associated with LTFU of clients on ART treatment and care among the South African Clothing and Textile Union members living with HIV and attending the SACTWU Worker Health Program Clinic.

The Empirical Study of Union Advocating The System of Labor Directors : Case of Chunghwa Telecom Workers' UnionChang, Hsu-chung 22 July 2010 (has links)
After Taiwan lifted martial law in 1987, the Legislative Yuan enacted the amendment of the Act of Privatization of Government-Owned Enterprises in 1991; the Taiwanese had the first direct presidential election in 1996; the Legislative Yuan passed the Telecom Three Laws¡XTelecommunications Act, Organizational Statute of the Directorate General of Telecommunications and Chunghwa Telecom Company Act. Chunghwa Telecom Company was set up accordingly. It was the first time in Taiwan to have the ruling party changed in 2000; Ministry of Transportation and Communication approved three private fixed network businesses involving telecommunication operation; the Legislative Yuan passed the amendment of the Article 35 of State-owned Enterprise Management Act requiring that one-fifth of board of directors shall be designated by unions. In the year of 2003, the Legislative Yuan passed the resolution that any business with 20% of state shares shall have one union representative on the board of directors. The Democratic Progressive Party won the second-time prudential election in 2004; in the following year, Chunghwa Telecom Company became a private business. The Taiwanese experienced the second regime change in 2008. Asian financial crisis of 1997, the scandals of Enron and WorldCom of 2001, and global financial tsunami of 2008 have caused society unrest and economic recession. Consequently, corporate governance has become the global focus. Due to the negative social effects caused by the CEOs responsible for the international financial tsunami, it is the best time to re-examine the relations among employees, businesses, and governments. Telecommunications industry is an important platform for social networks, it not only has the features of monopoly and oligopoly, but also highly involves in public service that affect the development of a country and people's lives.
This study adopts case study (document analysis, participatory observation, and content analysis) and comparative research as the main research methods. Based on the perspectives of neo-institutionalism, social capital theory, and IDA, the case of privatization and corporatization of Chunghwa Telecom Company is chosen to explore and analyze the institutional change process from a government-run Directorate General of Telecommunications to a private business, as well as from industry monopoly to a free market that have embedded in economic freedom, open society and political democracy. The process has involved huge commercial interests, consumer rights, and telecommunication workers¡¦ working rights. Before and after the formation of the policy, how the Chunghwa Telecom Workers¡¦ Union , a stakeholder of the privatization policy, initiated and put its claim for "industrial democracy - participation in management" in practice within the interactive relations among labors, employer and government is the focus of this research.
