The course aims to provide adequate knowledge of the discipline of the employment relationship, with the necessary references to the rules of the labor market, to the forms of representation of the workers in the company, to the collective bargaining. The methodological approach is intended to give students the tools for understanding the dynamics affecting labor relations.
The course provides students with knowledge about Italian employment law (the legal regulation of the employment relation and of the employment market, the analysis of the legal forms of workers’ participation at plant level and of collective bargaining). Students shall be able to understand the employment dynamics and the national employment legal regulation also in the light of European Union principles and labour and social policies.
Students must acquire adequate knowledge and an effective understanding of the main legal issues addressed during the lessons. Students must be able to apply the knowledge acquired and to understand and solve problems that may arise during application. Students must be able to use the knowledge acquired both on a conceptual and operational level with independent evaluation skills and skills in different application contexts. Students must acquire the technical language typical of the discipline to communicate clearly and unambiguously with specialist and non-specialist interlocutors. Students must develop adequate learning skills that allow them to continue to independently explore the main topics of the discipline.
To be able to profitably study the subject, the student must have a good foundation in private law and constitutional law.

LABOUR LAW
The exam consists of an oral test held on the dates of the exam sessions published in the official calendar. The oral test includes at least three questions that the candidate is asked to answer, possibly divided into more specific questions, in order to be able to evaluate the degree of in-depth preparation. Attending students can access (by registering on Aulaweb with the methods and terms that will be announced in class) an intermediate written test. Passing the intermediate test (with a score of at least 18/30) allows you to take the final exam on the remaining attendance programme. The score reported in the intermediate test is valid for all exam sessions of the academic year in which it was acquired.
The exam aims to verify the student's actual knowledge and acquisition of basic theoretical notions as well as her ability to identify and apply the reference standards to specific cases. Through the questions it will be verified whether the student is able to: - explain legal concepts using appropriate technical language; - identify, distinguish, know and apply the main regulatory provisions that regulate the conduct of individual and collective working relationships; - understand and interpret, with a critical spirit and independent judgement, the main legislative texts as well as the texts of some fundamental sentences discussed in class.
