The assessment of the influence of EU
on the industrial democracy of UK
It has been seen that there are many policies
formed by the European Union to control the
in-ternal function of business as well as the
organisation. The policies are trade policy,
recruiting policies, environment control
policies, anti-harassment policies, employee
relationship maintain policies, training
policies, safety and healthy workplace policies,
HRM policies. All of the poli-cies are influence
the industrial democracy of employees. Like
for example,

• The anti-harassment policy helps
the woman to join any company and
move around the office without any
fear. The mental problem like
harassment problem is totally sorted
in this situation.
• Trade policy is another kind of
policy where it gives freedom to any
organization to trade internationally.

• The democratic right of
employees is described by the
safety and healthy workplace
policy. This policy mainly helps to
build a better workplace where
the worker can work without any
fear and tension. This is another
way to measure the degree of
freedom of an organization.

• The perfect employee
must be chosen for the
right job. It means that
only the eligible employees
must be appointed to
particular jobs. This is the
initial policy as everything
depends on the recruiting

• Recruited employee must be
considered as a fresher and must be
trained properly to get the best
result out of them. It means that
every single organization must have
a perfect training team who will train
new employees. These trainers are
the person who will teach employee
about the democratic rights. The
degree of freedom can be measured
by this policy.

The popular methods which were used to gain
employee participation and involvement in the
decision making process
There are few methods to describe
the employee participation and
involvement, in the decision making
process. The involvement of
employees in the decision-making
process is another topic of debate.
There is a belief in the worker's
union that they should also be a part
of the decision making process.

• Participation through
ownership: This process of
participation is very clear.
Employees can buy the shares
of the company. The person who
buys share not only can take a
financial decision but also helps
the company financially. It puts
a positive impact on employee.

• Participation at the board
level: Industrial democracy is
known as the representation of
employees at the board level. In
this case, all the problems of the
employees are kept in front of
the managing committee. This
process also guides the board
members to invest in employee
benefit schemes.

• Participation in the schemes of
suggestion: This form of participation
clearly indicates that the employees of any
organization can be a part of the
companies' decision-making process by
suggesting good ideas which will help the
company to increase its business. The
employees are always willing to join the
decision-making process so this process of
participation is made because every small
decision all together can make a fruitful
decision. This can make a huge difference
in the outcome.

• Quality circles’ participation: A quality
circle is a group of people in the company
who works accurately and is expert in their
field of work. This group of people always
keeps one thing in mind, that they will have
to do their work very efficiently and within
the given deadline. In another words, it can
be said that this group of people are much
disciplined rather than the other employees
in the organization. This type of team are
there in every organization. The decision
making authority allows these teams to join
decision-making process. In other words, it is
clear that this team is eligible enough to play

• Collective bargaining
participation: This participation
refers to the process of deciding
certain rules for the company. It also
indicates the collective agreements.
This is one of the perfect methods to
ensure participation of employees in
the decision-making process.
Nevertheless, this process must be
well in control because most of the
employees may try to take
advantages of power that are given

The assessment of HRM approach on
employee relations
There many aspects of
employee relation which are
directly or indirectly connected
with the Human Resource
Management approach. This
approach has some features in
it. They are as follows,

• The quality of health care
delivery at all level must be
checked every now and then.
The general requirements of
an organization are mainly
delivered by HRM. HRM
team delivers every man
source to do particular jobs.

• Every single organization requires a
leader who will set good examples by
achieving targets in a disciplined way. This
can be considered as the path of work for
the employees. Not only it makes the work
easier, but it increases the appetite of work
in an employee. This leader is entirely
provided by HRM team because they are the
one who recruit employee and by gaining
proper training that employee can become a
leader one day. This has been the main
factor in the field of employee relation.

• HRM department can also
provide proper atmosphere of work.
These policies are con-trolled by
Human Resource Management team.
• HRM team motivates the
employee to work for the company.
After the selection process, the team
provides all sorts of information and
materials which help the employees
to work easier. This create a positive
impact for the organization.

As the conclusion, HRM approach is the best
approach among them all. It has many sides
by which the employee relation can be
maintained in a proper way. The employees
always look for a good guiding team. HRM
provides that team with proper eligible
members working. The satisfaction level of
the employees' increases. Lastly, not only the
employees who are benefitted but the
organization also get all the benefits because
it's the HRM team of that organization that
is working efficiently enough.
