Description: One of the lynchpins of the employment relationship globally is the control of employers over work performance. However, a modern collective reflection on subordination and control at work in current societies is somehow still missing. This is a crucial gap in labour law scholarship because how managerial prerogatives are exerted at work has not ceased threatening workers’ individual and collective fundamental rights. Furthermore, many of the managerial technologies currently being introduced at the workplace can augment ever more the opportunities for abusive control and surveillance of workers. This project aims to fill these gaps, chiefly by organising a public discussion at Osgoode Hall Law School among scholars who have authored works relevant to these issues.
