Abstract: The shift to a European model of industrial and employment relations during
the first ten years of EU membership continued to gather momentum.
Through the updating of the Maltese labour law in order to conform to the
EU Directives, the Maltese industrial and employment scenario moved closer
to the ideals of the European social model. Nevertheless, in the transposition
of the EU Directives into Maltese law, little heed was given to the substantive
features. Moreover the policy of abolishing all existent practices of workers’
participation tends to diverge from the European social model. These are
some of the visible fault lines in the bridges which have been built towards
a more Europeanised system of employment and industrial relations.2015-01-01T00:00:00ZHealth and safety in Malta : a snapshot as informed by the long essays of the diploma in social studies (Occupational health and safety)https://www.um.edu.mt/library/oar/handle/123456789/411032025-04-16T06:30:54Z2015-01-01T00:00:00ZTitle: Health and safety in Malta : a snapshot as informed by the long essays of the diploma in social studies (Occupational health and safety)
Abstract: The article presents a snapshot of some of the long essay findings which were
carried out in part-fulfilment of the Centre for Labour Studies’ undergraduate
Diploma in Social Studies (Occupational Health and Safety). Despite their
academic limitations, the presented findings provide an insight into the
present health and safety situation within a number of sectors including:
construction; manufacture; aviation; administrative and office work; and
health care. In so doing, they provide direction for policy development and
further research.2015-01-01T00:00:00Z
