Devolution and Power: Employment Rights, Bargaining and Risk
以威尔士为案例，研究宪法权力下放对工作和就业监管的影响，分析劳动力市场、产业关系及集体谈判结构，指出权力下放对工人集体权力带来的风险和潜在收益。
ABSTRACT This article considers the implications of further constitutional devolution for the regulation of work and employment, taking Wales as its case study. It reviews the current profile of the Welsh labour market, the climate for industrial relations and existing structures of pay determination and collective bargaining in this context. The article concludes that devolution presents risks as well as potential benefits, especially where the collective interests of workers are not easily delimited by regional boundaries. Therefore, the risks of fragmentation and decentralisation should be taken into consideration when evaluating the implications of constitutional devolution for the collective power of workers and their trade unions.
