In the brink of a new century, the center of employment law as changed from a class fight to a ideas debate, most of the social partners and stakeholders have set goals on creating bridges, that enable a a better stand througt a eminent social crises and loss of natural resources.
The chellenge is to maintain previlege in adverse times ahead, independent sindicalism may be answer to set a new aproach to conflicts and differences between workers and business builders, set new dialogues and adapt to change. The collective bargaining has become a chance to improve the worker outcome in getting better conditions and previleges.
So over time it´s becoming a less fight for power, and more a chance for equal gain, if both worker and employer understand thar mecanization of industy and economical markets can wipe out any agreement by turning them redundant. It is essential to understand that work power over capital has become dull. It is urgent to bring climate change, tecnological revolution and resource racionalization into account when designing a business or a open any kind of comercial opportunity.
Mediation and NPL has become a milestone or a core issue if an enterprise want ro achive sucess, focus on the brand and in an assertive strategy is essential in order to become recognizable in the share market and digital world including social networks. Networking has become as necessary as time rendering. A professional must work in all is skills including social ones, for not becoming a catcher in the rye.
Concerning collective bargaining, it is essential to use this resource wisely, not like a political currency trading, because in the last decadas, this abusive use transform an useful tool into a conflitive ground, where both employer and worker have a lot more to lose then to gain.
It is essential to assume that Pact Sunt Servanda as been deposed and Rebus Sic Stantibus is the "new normal". This "new normal" changed the way business is mainfraimed. Today you don´t settle an agreement to be legal bounding, you set an agreement to manage in "the storm", it is essential to maintain the dialogue constant, because reality change, and change very fast.
It is essential to understand that a contract is a dinamic reality, not a stone monolite, money is sacient because it grounds on decision of players based in his own feelings, the reality is mutable, and the company and business focusing as also become a dinamic reality. The "art of war" from Sun Tzu, it´s today, a milestone read without which you can´t plan the next move, because you need to know yourself, the enemy, the ground you step, your "grocery" pile, your allies, the weather and the time to act.
Today you need a professinal lawyer, that met your requirements, in order to form the right mentoring towards the chellenges posed by a highly competitive and resource scarce labor market, because labour law also become a labor market and a social stage in which you need to be ready for the next steep in advance or be exposed to harm and demoralized becoming unable to stay open.
Workers and Employers have become allies once you have other stakeholders in the field, this aparent complexification of the class fight premiss is just a reminder that the real enemy today for unprepared enterprises, are the high finance and the global market dimension as mutation chellenge both workers and employers have to face in order to come out winners.
