The teaching is organized as follows:

Learning outcomes

The course aims at analysing both the traditional fields of labour law: employment law and trade union law. Specifically, it shall provide the necessary conceptual, normative and methodological bases for examining and understanding the system of heteronomous and autonomous regulatory sources, also in the light of case-law and doctrine interpretative perspectives. The purpose of the course is to make the student capable of dealing with labour law in its dynamic development, pointing out the interconnections between the different topics, as well as assessing the issues arising out the implementation of the theoretical and regulatory framework, through correct reasoning and arguments.

Program

The analysis will focus on the multi-faceted system of sources of labour law. In this regard, particular attention will be given not only to statutory laws, but also to the so-called collective autonomy, the «collective agreement» and to the systems of concertation between the social partners. The first part of the course will examine the legal regulation of the individual contract of employment and of the relationships between labour law and the market; the second part will investigate the collective aspects of work relationships.
THE EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP (first semester and first part of the second semester): Structure of the discipline; subordination, self-employment, economically dependant self-employed work; works at the borders and the not-work-relationships; typologies of employment contracts; active and passive employment policies and the constitution of the employment relationship; antidiscrimination protections; the employment relationship: duties and obligations; working time; pay; leaves; crises, transformations and out-sourcing; termination of employment relationships: individual dismissals and redundancies; the protection of rights.

Examination Methods

For attending students there are two intermediate written tests. More information will be provided during the course. For attending students, the last part of the exam is oral. For non-attending students, there is only one oral exam on the entire programme. The aim of written tests (for attending students) and of oral examinations is to verify students’ knowledge, correct use of language and capacity of connecting the different thematic areas involved. Erasmus students are invited to contact the professor at the beginning of the course in order to arrange teaching and examination modalities.
