Learning unit contents

The purpose of the Collective Labor Relations course is to study the rules which govern relations between, on the one hand, employees or their representatives and, on the other, the employer or groups of employers. These rules aim to ensure the expression and defense of professional interests expressed in the company, in groups of companies, in professional branches, or even at the national inter-professional level.

The lessons concern the implementation of collective labor relations mainly in the private sector but also in the public sector.

The object of these lessons must be understood by retaining: a) The actors of social law; b) Social consultation bodies; c) The place of workers in private companies and public institutions; d) The specific problems resulting from crises, difficulties and conflicts.Legal and regulatory frameworks useful for understanding the subject taughtThe teaching is adapted according to current events on the one hand, and particular orientations in line with the expectations of the students, as long as these are brought to the attention of the teacher by the course delegates

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

This involves reconciling a relevant understanding by the student of the rules of law applicable to the subject of collective relations, with the implications inherent to human resources management.This highlights the result to be achieved: discern the legal object of a problem presented, reason about it by documenting it according to the applicable law, synthesize the analysis made, and know how to present it.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills

The specificity of this course does not require any preparation other than the prerequisite courses specified by the Faculty of Social Sciences of the University of Liège, in relation to the courses taught to obtain the bachelor's degree.The diversity of students' studies and professional experiences justifies teaching methods adapted to these circumstances.This highlights the need for structured consultation with course delegates.
