INTRODUCTIONEmployee relations in present context is considered as industrial relation which refers torelationship between employees and managers within an industry or a business firm (What areemployee relations, 2017). It can be considered as prime target of managers to develop effectiverelations at workplaces and resolve issues for continuous regulation of work and achievement ofgrowth in country. In this context, Analysis of ASDA is done to identify effective methodswhich have to be taken by managers to influence and develop positive relationship at workplace.Various conflicts are considered which provides an impact on relationship of employees andshould be resolved by managers by using appropriate methods. Legislations of European unionare also recognised to understand impact of policies on business activities and employeesrelations.TASK 11.1 The unitary and pluralistic frames of referenceRelationship between individuals at workplace is significant for completion and development ofhealth work environment. It has been recognised that managers have to develop a strongrelationship with employees by understanding the perception and behaviour of individual atworkplace (Turek and Perek-Bialas, 2013). Positive relationship between workforce can bedeveloped through understanding these two perspective such as: Unitary frame perspective: It is considered as a mindset of assumptions, thoughts,perspective, behaviour related to membership in management and organization (). In thisscenario, analysis of ASDA has determined that there is requirement of coordinationamong the workforce to achieve objectives and overall development. It is significant formanagers to ensure that workers must have an aim of achieving common goals,objectives and targets which are developed by organization. It is very important thatevery individual should be loyal and accept laws which are developed by firm atworkplace (Zheng and et.al., 2015). In this reference, issues between individuals atworkplace can be considered as negative for organization and those individuals who areresponsible for creating disputes will be considered as disloyal towards firm. Being anHR assistant is responsibility to analyse the environment and also understand condition atworkplace. It is essential for managers to resolve dispute and maintaining theorganization structure at workplace. Thus, this perspective has defined that management1
in organization has authority and it helps in developing effective relationship betweenemployees. It is more concerned towards increasing loyalty of individuals towardsorganization.Pluralistic reference: In this perspective, it has been recognised that the authority withinorganization is distributed among two important groups such as trade unions andmanagement. It will determine relationship between both the parties and legal authoritiesat place of work. It has been recognised that managers can develop an healthy workenvironment through satisfying needs of trade unions and individuals. Voluntaryassociation of workers registered under trade union act which regulates in industry aswell as in organizations and work for protecting the rights of employees (Theriou andChatzoglou, 2014). In this scenario, analysis of this perspective is taken for ASDA tounderstand working conditions and relationship of between employees at workplace.Being an HR assistant it has been identified that firm is following unitary perspective atworkplace. There is only single authority in ASDA which considers employees as asignificant asset and focus on giving motivation to them. In this reference, It is difficultfor organization to avoid conflicts in organization. It concentrates on developingcoordination and influence on workers rather than controlling them. Therefore, pluralisticperspective determines that effective relationship between employees can be maintainthrough delegation of authority.1.2 Affect of changes in trade unionism on employee relations.Continuous amendments in laws have made several changes in labour movement andenvironment in business firms. It has made an influence on registered trade unions which arepresently in existence in some industries. Analysis has determined multiple amendments intrade unionism has changes behaviour of organization towards there employees (Meyer andMaltin, 2010). For growth and development of workers, governments has made formulated lawsagainst various practices of trade unions like laws for membership, Political interference, rightsof workers, illegal strike or lockouts etc. It has been recognised that these changes have madestrong effect on employee relations as firms are more focused towards employees to reduceconflicts and avoid situations of strike and lockouts. Trade unions are also influences towardsbenefits of workers and neglects interference of political parties (Sanders and Frenkel, 2011). Inthis scenario, workers in ASDA also have rights to join a trade union if they face any difficulty2
