Campagne, Ibarcq Claudie. "Tels serviteurs, tels maîtres : la représentation des domestiques dans la peinture vénitienne de la Renaissance." Paris, EHESS, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015EHES0051.
Full textRenaissance Venetian paintings include many servants, who often escape the notice of those who view them. A systematic statistical inventory of those servant figures and their grouping into different categories have made it obvious that those figures are hardly ever realistic or decorative but are most of the time an integral part of a symbolic system focusing on their masters' place in society and of the elite's conception of its social role, in particular during the more aristocratic second half of the sixteenth century. On the other hand, servant figures may be used to express views on varied subjects, either literary, theological or political, or even with an artistic or satirical goal in mind. Indeed, servants, figures of the popolo, have a legitimate place in pictorial representation in a city such as Venice where the Patricians like to think of the community as united. The systematic study of servants in painting has also led to a new questioning of well-known works when they include servant figures which differ from traditional or contemporary norms. The study of those discrepancies has shed a new light on those works by Carpaccio, Titian, Tintoretto and Veronese
Fontaine-Dumont, Aurélie. "Les représentations professionnelles : analyse d'un concept en émergence dans le champ des représentations sociales : application à la représentation de l'hygiène." Paris 8, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA084117.
Full textThis thesis has a dual purpose. On the one hand to provide some points for discussion with regards to the professional representation theory which remains an underdeveloped field of study in social psychology. For this first aim, we try (i) to highlight the specific and common features between social and professional representations and (ii) to explore the variables that may have an impact on the development of professional representations. On the other hand, the second purpose is to bring practical knowledge about hygiene in order to improve compliance with protocols in public and private organizations. To achieve those two objectives, we tested the effect of three variables: type of training, level of knowledge and frequency of practices. Professionals and nonprofessionals (researchers and technicians) participated in the study which took place in a questionnaire in the form of a verbal association task. Data processing was carried out by three additional analyses: prototypical, similitude analysis and three-compenential analysis. These results showed important distinctions despite a shared knowledge basis. We observed an impact of every tested variable which translated into a significant development of professional representations (contents and structures). We finished with (i) the advance of the thoughts related to the special features of professional representations compared with social representations and (ii) the impact of outcomes related to hygiene on professional trainings
Ben, Abdelhamid Abdelmehdi. "Corporate governance and employee ownership : evidence from France." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Université Clermont Auvergne (2021-...), 2021. http://www.theses.fr/2021UCFAD016.
Full textThis doctoral work examines the way employee share ownership influences the governance and strategic choices of a company. The first chapter of the thesis presents an inventory of the literature on employee share ownership and corporate governance. This review helps to develop the conceptual foundations on the research questions addressed in the thesis. Chapter 2 assesses the impact of employee share ownership on the entrenchment of CEOs in their jobs. The measures of managerial entrenchment in our research are the age, seniority and turnover rate of the CEO. Our empirical study examines the majority of French companies making up the SBF 120 stock market index and the methodology of generalized moments (GMM) is implemented. Essentially, the results show an inverted U-shaped relationship between employee ownership and CEO entrenchment. We also show that the presence of employee shareholder representatives on boards of directors or supervisory boards also has an impact and varies the inflection points of the relationships observed. Chapter 3 examines the impact of employee share ownership and its representation on the board of directors on a company's cost of capital. The study focuses on the companies in the SBF 120 index. The empirical results document the increase in employee ownership which results in an increase in the cost of capital up to a certain level, and that subsequently this relationship is reversed. The results converge and show that variations in employee share ownership and the presence of employees on the board of directors significantly affect the cost of equity of the company and therefore implicitly influence the value of the company. Chapter 4 examines the impact of employee share ownership on the level of environmental responsibility of companies. The results show that a positive relationship exists between employee share ownership, employee involvement in boards and corporate environmental responsibility scores. Finally, this research sheds additional light on the consequences of employee ownership in the French context

Full textFor the past two decades, English has been gaining ground in Lebanon, like everywhere else in the world. As for the french language, which was traditionally considered to be a language of culture, it now enjoys popularity in religious communities otherwise indifferent to it. Unfortunately, the privileges of French language in Lebanon is weabened by an inadequate traditional teaching. So, at the end of 12 years of school in a French system, many students find difficulty in their oral and written expression. The media in creating an increasingly non-french environment, complicates things. However three is a lot steake: the task remains to transform Frensh into a language utility. Based on R. Chaudenson's gride analysis of the francophone situations, this research is trying to show the specifity of the Francophonie, to pose the problem of the teaching of frensh as a second languange in Lebanon, tasking into account the sociolinguistc realities of the country

Full textThe present work aimed at identifying the factors that foster the identity, attitudinal and emotional adaptation of individuals to mergers and acquisitions. The first study,based on the narratives of 29 employees on their career and perceptions of the merger they were experiencing, revealed four types of discourse : “individualistic”, “professional”, “organisational” and “global”. The second study, which is based on 50 MSII (Zavalloni & Louis-Guérin, 1984), shows that organisational identifications and representations of members of merged companies depend on the period of the integration process and the perceived recognition at work. The third questionnaire survey among 296 employees of merged companies led to the development of a causal model that explains the success of mergers and acquisitions in terms of job satisfaction and organisational commitment. Those three studies underline the essential role of perceived recognition at work in the adaptation to change of employees faced to mergers and acquisitions

Full textIf the legislator gives active consideration to the organization of the employee representation bodies, sometimes to their disappearance, he hardly considers their evolution. Restructuring operations are one of its main factors. They often have effect on the organization of the employee representation bodies, at least by causing a change of their organizational framework. The legislator has hardly considered it, leaving to the social partners, by agreement, and to the judge, throughout its judgments, the task of providing answers to the occurred questions. If this way of solving the questions coming from the evolution of the employee representation bodies is not devoid of merits, it also has disadvantages, particularly in the area, always sensitive, of legal certainty. It is arguable to call for a legislative intervention. It could, moreover, be an opportunity to rethink the employee representation law in order to refine its lines and to simplify its architecture. The stackings of bodies are not necessarily helpful to the defense of the interests of employees… and can overly complicate the management of company and of group
Polge, Olivier. "Étude du prédicat Want et de ses emplois en anglais contemporain." Paris 7, 2007. http://www.theses.fr/2007PA070068.
Full textDespite its apparent polysemy, it is possible to account for all the uses of the verb want through one single representation consisting of two operations, namely the assessment of a case of lack and the positive valuation of the missing element. These two operations have gradually changed in the course of time, quite often in parallel. However, the assessment of the case of lack was finally backgrounded by the now preponderant positive valuation. In fact, want moved from expressing a situational case of lack to expressing a need, which implies the positive valuation of a remedy to the case of lack. Want even came to convey a private state in contexts involving a speaker and an addressee. The positive valuation of a remedy by the speaker and then the subject of want was a process of subjectification. Still, want retains a specific status within private verbs since its meaning depends on highly diverse enunciative factors, among others whether the case of lack is assessed by the speaker or the experiencer, the person in which it is used and whether the experiencer and the missing element are human or non-animate. Want thus came to work on qualitative otherness, which caused the want to and want someone to constructions to appear. These constructions are analysed within a speaker-centered approach: the infinitive complement in the want to construction is devoid of any subject. This empty slot is then identified to the subject of want with reference tothe context. The use of the infinitive implies an operation of prospective validation whose parameters can be modulated by the temporal, aspectual and modal determinations of want. The use of want (to) alongside modal auxiliaries also calls into question the hypothesis that want to and wanna are auxiliaries in the making

Full textCollective bargaining has a key-role in employment law’s construction. French Constitution, European and International laws acknowledge a right to collective bargaining which belongs to employees : employees exercise this right through their representatives. Actually, employee’s right to collective bargaining is reduced to a right to be represented as state both, paragraph 8 of 1946 French Constitution Preamble and European and International laws. This right may find its efficiency before Courts. As a subjective right, it can be put forward by an employee. This makes the employee creditor of the right to claim for the implementation of legitimate representatives. “Legitimacy” as a sociologic notion, must be legally translated through the right of represented employees to design freely their representatives, and the right for these representatives to be protected as long as they exercise their mission of bargaining. Legitimacy is translated through the expression of employees’ will to design their representatives. This expression may be formalized through a mandate or through an election. With consideration to the significance of collective bargaining (“erga omnes” effect of collective bargaining agreements) and of the interest at stake (collective interest), election shall be favoured. Law works at providing the condition of this legitimacy. For example, August 20, 2008 law promotes election results. At a European and International level, the realization of a right to be represented remains unachieved

Full textThe issue of sanctions is critical when is opened the debate on the effectiveness of employee representation rules in the company. Aiming at protecting the core values of society, criminal law should be reserved for infringements of the prerogatives of employee representation bodies which are fundamental. For the rest, there are sanctions , administrative or civil, more effective. Still, the only restriction of the criminal field is not sufficient to guarantee the effectiveness of employee representation rules. Some substantial and “organizational” answers relating in particular to the definition of a major criminal policy, the revision of the division of responsibilities in the company and the search for renewed criminal sanctions seem necessary. Beyond the repressive way, others deserve to be explored. The application of employee representation rules must be guaranteed by tools rather preventive than repressive and without any involvement of any judicial authority. The extra-criminal policy leaves a large place to the preventive function of labor inspection which should help companies by using new methods of support and assessment. The definition of a corporate social policy, through the conclusion of a single agreement on staff representation, is legally adequate to ensure the effectiveness of the rule by taking into account the specificities of each company

Full textThis research aims to answer the following questions : how do employers represent to themselves the object "employee's fidelity to the firm" and what kind of convergences and divergences can one underline with a worker's population ? In order to answer these questions, several iterations between theory and practice were necessary. In spite of the stakes which the fidelity of employees represent for the company, some paradoxes appear. The employee sees himself, but is also seen, like employable and could be tempted to adopt a wandering behaviour. After having studied authors in finance, social law and marketing which frequently use the concept of fidelity, a definition of fidelity is suggested. Its polymorphism engages to study it under the angle of social representations. Assumptions as for certain dimensions of the representation of the employeee's fidelity are then put forth. They result from the literature as well as from a first qualitative phase and place confidence and engagement at the core of the representation. In order to test the assumptions in the second phase of research, several methods of collection of data were necessary : study of internal secondary data from two metallurgical industries and distribution of a questionnaire near their worker's population. In fine, the representations of the employers can be interpreted according to two types of relations between employers and employees : a transactional relation and a "relational " relation. It is then in the balance between these two kinds of relations that fidelity lasts beyond the rupture of the employment contract, in particular thanks to the reciprocal relation of confidence. With regard to the convergences and divergences between employers and workers, the principal convergence is due to the core of the representation : confidence characterizes the behaviour of fidelity. Divergences are noted in terms of tools likely to support the fidelity of the workers (for instance : wage) but also regards their fidelity behaviour

Full textChanges in technological and human context of recruitment raise the question of reception about digital data observable on the Web. Banks are particularly present and young graduates are exposed to this massive communication. Identity construction characterizes this social and paradoxical phenomenon involving multiple actors. Our issue thus seeks to understand how young graduates receive the digital recruitment of banks. We have invested the theoretical framework of social representations and conducted a literature review on communication strategies of banks and varied behaviors of young graduates. This preparation of the field of research allowed us to make assumptions about influence of social representations in this communication situation. The complexity of the studied reality has favored the adoption of a qualitative methodological approach. For the goal of reflexivity, we crossed the data of focus groups and self-confrontation interviews. In the same way, a qualitative and thematic treatment was combined with a quantitative treatment by the lexicometric approach. The main results concern the understanding of the cognitive mechanisms of reception of data from the Web in the context of recruitment. They integrate social representations of the size of the organization and digital communication devices. In addition, we have highlighted several receptor profiles. This research highlights paradoxes related to the implementation of an employer brand and associated with the tendency of organizations to digital isomorphism

Full textSince the emergence of the CHSCT (health, safety and working conditions committee) in 1982, the elected representation of employees has profoundly changed. Employee representatives, works councils and the CHSCT have had to adapt to the considerable extension of the concepts of health and safety. The integration of the requirement to protect the mental health of workers in the Labour Code has radically altered the scope of competence of the CHSCT. The prevention of psychosocial risks quickly invited itself as the centre of its concerns, thereby extending the consultation obligation borne by the employer. Projects and measures that initially only required the consultation of the works council are now also subject to the prior opinion of the CHSCT. In this procedure of double consultation the employer is guided by the principle of specialty that turns the works council in a mere rubber stamp of the opinion of the specialized committee. The expansion of the CHSCT has caused reiterations and cumbersomeness. A reform must be considered. Transformation of the specialized body in a committee of the works council or redistribution of powers of each : the alternative offered requires discussion

Full textThe goal of this thesis we are presenting is to contribute to the understanding of the link that exists in Gabon between time representations and practices of work. For everyone, these representations thrive not only on the interraction with direct environment, on the basis of which the action's construction is affected. But they also thrive on a collective layout of norms, values and principles proper to a social group. We have got down to find the resulting effects of time representations on practices of wage-earning work, that's to say, work done by someone in exchange for a salary. Indeed, since 1960 gabonese public administration is ruled by a "judeo-christian and capitalist" time according to Rossatanga-Rignault's catchphrase, implanted by the former colonial power. The issue of our research is to examine in 2016 this time-related functioning in order to certify if it includes or not specific collective representations to Gabonese society and time-related experience of the local agents

Full textThe orchestra exists in many forms today, perhaps even more so than in the past. Permanent symphony orchestras, so-called "project" orchestras, self-governing orchestras, historically informed performance ensembles, the forms of orchestral practice are divided into complex categories, organized according to their legal status, recruitment procedures and, of course, musical mission. The agreements within these structures are totally different, as much from the musical as the social point of view.This thesis aims to observe these orchestral practices by questioning the various modes of constructing the collective in the professional orchestras. Beyond this interrogation, my purpose is to observe how and to what extent the organization of every orchestra can influence the commitment of the musicians (socially but also musically) and the artistic performance. This research draws its influence from Anglo-Saxon sources, focusing particularly on the interactions between the organizational framework specific to each orchestra and the strategies which the individuals develop therein. For this I question not only the artists but those who work by their side: the orchestra is envisaged as a process of cooperation between technicians, administrations, and musicians.The observation of these mechanisms emphasizes the particular relations which the orchestras and the individuals maintain with the idea of an artistic commitment necessarily correlated with social risk

Full textWorkers’ collective representation is guaranteed by several sources of Law: international, European, statutes and collective bargaining. Pinpointing all of them enables a “map-making”. Some sources are to ensure workers’ collective fundamental rights. Some others aim to design workers representation. This « law-mapping » indicates each law’s respective importance. The increasing importance of the European Union law and of the collective bargaining in this matter alleviates statutes’ traditional role. In the same time the increasing role of collective bargaining diminishes management role in this respect. Studying the coordination of the different laws helps to understand their functions regarding one another. It makes possible to identify their purpose. Traditionally, such a coordination aims only to ensures workers’ representation. Now on, this coordination falls within the scope of a « contractualized » and decentralized normative production. Workers’ collective representation is not only a topic illustration of sources of laws mutation, it is also a field to observe the dynamic current of their coordination and interaction

Full textLargely shaped upon collective bargaining agreement, labour law cannot afford to bypass the debate relating to the identification of the employees party to these agreements. If the collective bargaining agreement was built upon a model of negotiation with the unions, the lack or absence of the latter, combined with the necessity or desire to use the new opportunities offered by the agreement, dictates the acknowledgement of other protagonists. The notion of collective bargaining agreement comes out deeply altered. Employees intervene by way of referendum to create or validate the agreement. But because the referendum does not follow the model of the negotiated collective agreement, a new summa divisio emerges between negotiated agreements and adherence agreements, the regime of which sometimes differs lightly from the former. Insufficient to forge bonds between unions and employees, the referendum develops at the same time as the intervention of other representatives, directly elected by the employees, thus benefitting from a strong legitimacy, to the extent that the agreements resulting from negotiations conducted with them are of the same nature as those concluded with unions
Duchange, Grégoire. "Le concept d'entreprise en droit du travail." Thesis, Paris 2, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA020007.
Full textIn Law, the firm is the result of a complex amalgam of legal concepts (employment contract, legal personality, collective representation of workers, etc.). The systematic ordering of these ones is needed to perceive the coherence of the legal organization of that one. Guidelines emerge. Employment contract is the meeting of two parties whose interests are antagonists. But the release of the labor force of the employee, part of his person , and the sustainability of the contract require them to cooperate. This trend is reinforced by some mechanisms non implied by the nature of the employment contract. Are shared the control of the company (which involves the collective representation of workers) and of its benefits. Employees then become nearly considered as the stockholders are. The legal structure of the firm , however, is not fixed by dogma. Competing ideologies are shaping it. Some focus on purposes. The company is alternately used as a means for employment and for the will of the enterpreneur. Others focus on methods. Lawyers and economists try to organize the firm scientifically

Full textSince 1980, workplace sociology studies have taken an interest in subjectivity in the workplace as a mean of understanding social issues. In a similar fashion, this thesis deals with the way in which the educational management approach promotes engagement, and more particularly engagement as part of a regime based on the mobilization of subjectivities. It is generally conceded that employee mobilization is the classic realm of human resources management (HRM). But is this also true in other fields of organization? Is mobilization valued as highly elsewhere? The assumption is made by Tremblay et al. (2005) who propose a model of analysis based on four organizational fields 1) practices in HRM; 2) work organization; 3) leadership and; 4) vision, mission, objectives and values as so many levers to spur employee mobilization. The main objective of this thesis is to analyze HRM training manuals to establish whether the Tremblay et al. (2005) model is used widely in educational management literature without, however, assuming that this is reflected in concrete work situations. This thesis makes a triple contribution. It shows that employee mobilization and aspects related to it (enablement, motivation, sense of belonging and commitment) are portrayed as central to the new HRM practices by educational management literature in the areas of practices, work organization, leadership, vision, mission, objectives and values. Moreover, it reveals that mobilization is viewed as a source of emancipation – insofar as it is described as a vector of self-realization for the employee and, parallel to this, a path towards profitability for the business. Lastly, the thesis shows that beyond this vast attempt to mobilize subjectivity, educational management literature is the medium of a true work ethos that encourages the strong centrality of professional activity, experience as an end in itself and work relations based on a subjective transaction between both parties. In short, this ethos follows the principles of contemporary management norms. The thesis concludes with an examination of a set of reflections on the individual and social consequences of subjectivity engagement norms disseminated by contemporary management discourse

Full textThe role of the employees in the management of the companies is based on paragraph 8 ofthe preamble of the Constitution of 1946 : « Every employee participates, through one of its delegates, to the collective determination of the working conditions as well as the company management. » The implementation of the employees’ participation has however been slow. The economic crisis has revealed the importance of the employees’ association in corporate decisions. Public politics have tried to rebalance current forces in order to circumscribe the effects of the capitalism. Successive laws have increased the powers of employees and of the representative institutions of the personnel in the company so that they could become real actors in the management of the company. The legislative landscape reveals the intention of the legislator to design the company as a democracy in which all the parties shall express themselves. However, regardless of whether the employee is a shareholder or an administrator, employees and entrepreneurs remain distinct

Full textCross-border mergers of incorporated companies do not only interest Company Law but also comprise important aspects of Labour & Employment Law. If the European Directive dated 26 October 2005 facilitates these transactions, the reference made to national legislation raises many difficulties in the absence of harmonized treatment of the social consequences of transactions. The questions raised by the implementation of workers' participation in management bodies of the company resulting from the transaction are an illustration. Other issues include the fate of employees’ representative bodies of existing staff within the merging companies, collective norms and employment contracts, remain unresolved. To these and others, this study attempts to provide answers. The consequences of the cross-border transactions require that answers be given to the unresolved issues

Full textThis thesis focuses on the study of board-level employee representatives, i.e. employee representatives elected by the workforce under trade union nomination who serve on their company’s board of directors [BoD] or supervisory board [SVB] with the same rights and duties than that of other directors, including the right to vote on strategic decisions. Thanks to a methodology which combines different survey techniques (documentary analysis, two case studies, questionnaire distribution, participant observation), we question the nature of the social regulation which takes place within such so-called “democratised” companies. As this subject continue to lead to misunderstanding, we start setting the scene against a twofold context: a conceptual one, going back to the definition of “workers’ participation in decision-making” in order to underline the idiosyncrasy of the BoD or SVB as a participatory scene; an historical one, analyzing the non-linear dynamics of board-level employee representation’s institutionalisation in order to shed light on its de jure dimension. We then turn to its de facto dimension. First, we question the effectiveness of this rule and we observe that, on the one hand, its application directly depends on its anchorage in a source of binding law and, on the other hand, that the uniqueness of this provision is reflected in the profile of the union members selected to serve on the board whose great majority has a particularly well-developed “activist capital”. This is because, secondly, board-level employee representative’s action specificity lies both in the corporate governance and the industrial relations systems. If his/her capacity of action is limited to the sphere of influence in the former, the BoD of SVB could however be deemed a relevant arena of collective action provided that the trade union engages in an effort aimed at articulating the various scenes of workers’ representation. We demonstrate that workers’ participation in strategic decision-making does not automatically lead to a rebalancing of power within the company, but that it can produce a reshaping of industrial relations as long as the various involved actors seize it
Clément, Emmanuelle. "L'établissement distinct en droit du travail." Thesis, Lille 2, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016LIL20026.
Full textThe separate establishment has become an unavoidable concept in the life of the companies and a recurring notion in the legal texts and the jurisprudence. In the simplest case, the company has only one work unit, consisting of activities and personnel in one place. The enterprise and the single establishment are then merged. But since it develops a large workforce and its complex structure requires the establishment of a suitable organization, it is dismembered and divided into establishments. The separate establishment then becomes a center of activity of the company geographically or materially isolated. Labor law attempts to seize the distinct establishment in multiple dimensions and does not adopt the same approach depending on the utility that its recognition can bring to the company. The purpose of this research is to grasp the multiplicity of realities encompassed by the distinct institution and to clarify how the legislature and the courts tend to optimize it according to the role assigned to it. Concomitantly, it is a question of verifying the desirability of refocusing the relations of labor law at the level of the establishment rather than at the level of the enterprise and the resulting consequences

Full textThis research aims to have a better understanding of the mobilization of power resources by employers' associations in order to influence public policy, specifically in the aerospace sector. In the first place, this research attempts to answer our first research question which concerns the impact of the logic of representation on the public policy’s intervention. Furthermore, our second research question seeks to identify power resources used by employer associations. From a theoretical perspective, this research is a part of the current neo-institutionalist work. First, employers 'associations are perceived as "institutional entrepreneurs' because they have the ability to influence their institutional environment (Campbell, 2004; Streeck and Thelen, 2005; Crouch, 2005). Specifically, we also find that employers and their associations have been able to mobilize several power levers to influence, to their advantage, the political and economic developments in capitalist societies (Traxler and Huemer, 2007). On the empirical perspective, our research has three objectives : identify employer associations’ logic of representation; identify which types of resources are available for the associations; analyze the relationship between power resources (internal and external) and the potential influence on public policies (commercial and labor law). To meet our research objectives, we used the case study as our research method. This qualitative method is one of the best way to analyze an unknown phenomenon because it provides in-depth data. This research follows the recommendations of Merriem (1998) who propose to conduct a research in three main stages: preparation, data collection and interpretation. We collected our data using semi-directed interviews conducted in the winter of 2012. These interviews were conducted with employers' associations representatives of the aerospace sector. We performed a qualitative analysis based on our review of the literature and our research proposals. In this perspective, we used the technique of patterns matching developed by Yin (1994) which consist to compare our results with our research proposals. Finally, it should be noted that this research method (case study) has an important methodological limit: generalization. Indeed, we can hardly generalize our results to another population considering the fact that there are specific aspects related to the aerospace industry. Nevertheless, this research has contributed to have a better understanding of the role of employer associations in Canada.

Full textThis research project is interested by the forms and the capacity of employer organizations to elaborate work rules at a sector level, precisely, the Hotel sector in Quebec. It also aims to have a better understanding how these rules contribute to change the local industrial relation practices of their members. Our first research question is looking to target the impacts of the logic of representation and actions of the employer organization on the industrial relations practices. For some authors, especially Berhens and Traxler (2004 and 2007), Carley and al (2010) Charest, Laroche and Hickey (to be published), the logic of representation and action at the employer level are distinct from one to another and will influence in a different way the industrial relations practices. Thus, the presence, the form and the role of an employer organization will have a significant impact on the industrial relation practices. The members are able to be influenced by the orientation of their association. Our second research question will address the way the firms will use their power resources to influence the actions of employer organizations. The existing literature about this subject mentions that the management actors are holding multiple power resources being internal or external (Charest, Laroche and Hickey, to be published) are able to exercise an influence in the political institutions. We will attempt to verify if the more an association is able to mobilize its power resources, the more it will be able to influence the institutional context in which it’s acting On the theoretical plan this research is based on ideas developed by neo-institutionalism theories. First, we acknowledge that the actors must react and adapt to changes that occur in their environment. They will develop different strategies in management actions coordination as well as work relation at a local level, based on their interpretation of these transformations (Traxler and Huemer 2007). Also we admit that the actors are able to mobilize their power resources to deploy strategic initiatives that can provoque changes inside their environment (Crouch, 2005) These institutional entrepreneurs are actively researching opportunities and power leverage to use to maximize their respective interest and also reduce the uncertainty issued from the environment (Campbell, 2004: Streeck and Thelen, 2005; Crouch, 2005). Our research also concedes that the actors holding the greater power inside a group, the project holders, will be able to modify the institutions in functions of their specific interests. It is specifically on this plan that our research wants to distinguish itself from the wider research it gets into. On the empirical plan, this research will study the management actor in the hotel industry in the province of Quebec and targets three objectives: 1) produce the cartography of employer organizations in the hotel sector of the province of Quebec (form, structure, activities, missions etc.); 2) analyze the impact of the rules issued from the regulation process at the sector level on the local industrial relations practices; and 3) identify the dominant employers inside a sector and analyze the way that they arrive to modify the institution and the environment in which they act. In order to meet our research objectives, we used a qualitative research methodology; the case study was specifically used. This method was processed in three steps; the preparation, the data collection and the interpretation (Merriam, 1998). Data for this research was collected in fall of 2011 from interviews with hotel managers and hotel association managers in the region of Montreal and Quebec City. A quantitative analysis of the interview content was made and linked to the literature review and our research propositions. To this end, we used the patterns matching Yin (1994). This allowed us to compare our observations with our research propositions. It should be noted that since this research is a case study, some methodological limits specifically in the generalization of the results. It is hard to state that the results of this micro-analysis are extendable. On the other hand, the analysis helped to consolidate the model for future studies.

Full textThis research focuses on employer collective action to this day little studied in North America. Yet, this actor is highly organized in Quebec and has an influence on public policies and industrial relations. This research aims to gain a better understanding on employer’s logic action and the areas where they exert their influence. Most important, the research questions the diffusion mechanisms used by employer’s organizations to transmit orientations and guidelines to adopt by their members. Like the unions who has to develop their representative capacity (Dufour, Hege, Levesque and Murray, 2009), we believe it should be the same for the employers. Notably, this research wants to understand how the employers’ organizations makes sure that their members adopt practices related to the positions defended in labor market institutions and in the area of public’s policies. Our research question is the following one: What are the mechanisms developed by employers’ organizations to diffuse their orientations about public’s policies and labor relations on the local managing practices of their members? On the theoretical plan, this research is based on ideas developed by neo-institutionalism theories for a better explanation of how the actors used the institutions in place to shape the rules to their best interests, what points to a representative capacity and coherence in the actions between the levels where the employer is present. We are looking to understand how the employers’ organizations can coordinate the employers’ actions in reaction to the transformations in the institutional environment. The employers’ organizations are institutional entrepreneurs (Crouch, 2005) who are actively researching opportunities and power leverage to use to maximize their members’ interests and by the same occasion reduce the uncertainty issued from the environment (Campbell, 2004; Streeck et Thelen, 2005; Crouch, 2005). Still on the theoretical plan, this research is based on the ideas proposed by the logic of action sociology. This theoretical approach allows us to account for local and sectorial levels where the employers’ behaviors are rooted. On sectorial level, there is a plurality of instances who contributed to shape the logic of action of employers’ organizations. The logic of action sociology considered the employer organization as a group with a distinct life and a functional autonomy. The influence capacity of the organization depends on the coordination mechanisms used to generate agreement within the group. The coordination mechanisms should allow a regular and stable connection between the organization and their members. This research is interested by the employers’ organization that uses a set of means to diffuse the privileged orientations to the enterprises members. On the empirical plan, this research targets three objectives: (1) To gain a better understanding of the employers organizations forms in the Quebec mining sector; (2) obtain a better understanding of the structure and the logic of action of the employers organizations on the public policies, labor relations and labor market and finally, (3) to attain a better understanding of the mechanisms developed by the employers organizations to diffuse their orientations on the managing local practices of their members. In order to meet our research objectives, we used a qualitative research methodology; the case study of the Quebec mining industry was used. This method was processed in three steps; the preparation, the data collection and the interpretation (Merriam, 1998). Data for this research was collected during the winter of 2012 from interviews with mining enterprises managers and mining association managers. A qualitative analysis of the interview content was made and linked to the literature review and our research propositions. To this end, we used the patterns matching Yin (1994). This allowed us to compare our observations with our research propositions. In terms of results, we found that employers' associations in the mining sector in Quebec endorse further the role of spokesman for the industry to the government rather than service developer to members. Actions of employers' association takes place at all levels of the decision making process to ensure the best possible promotion of employers interests. Political representation is the most important field of activity which composes the logic action of employers' associations in the Quebec mining sector. It is important to note also that the representation of business interests with the public and media is also vital to employers’ collective action in the interests of social acceptability. Employers' associations will mainly try to influence industrial relations practices that ensure a better image of the industry and are prioritized based on the institutional context in place. Research has allowed us to observe a positive and significant impact on the diffusion capacity for five of the seven diffusion mechanisms composing our analysis model. Three of these five mechanisms promote downward diffusion capacity (transposition of the logic of sectoral action of members on local practices) and the other two tend to favor the upward diffusion capacity (transposition of local issues judged a priority on the sectors logic action). Mechanisms that better supports cohesion within the organization are those that involve a dynamic relationship between representatives and members and between members themselves thus demonstrating the relevance of a downward and upward diffusion direction. It should be noted that since this research is a case study, there is some methodological limits specifically in the generalization of the results. It is hard to state that the results of this micro-analysis are generalized regarded to the specificities of the case study. On the other hand, the analysis helped to the elaboration of a model that can be used for future studies.
