Corporate co-determination is still considered a special institutional arrangement in Germany, which has often been described as a success factor in international competition as well as an intermediary pacifying factor of conflicting interests (e.g. Geffers 2016; Müller-Jentsch 2008, 1998; Bosch 1997; Fürstenberg 1958). From this perspective, corporate co-determination appears as a social stabilizer in a dynamic process of continuous change, driven by intense competition. Works councils represent the interests of workforces and strive within this framework for a social balance of economic efficiency requirements for employees as well as for employment, thereby stabilizing, among other things, the maintenance of organizational commitment and trust in continuous change.

摘要

Corporate co-determination is still considered a special institutional arrangement in Germany, which has often been described as a success factor in international competition as well as an intermediary pacifying factor of conflicting interests (e.g. Geffers 2016; Müller-Jentsch 2008, 1998; Bosch 1997; Fürstenberg 1958). From this perspective, corporate co-determination appears as a social stabilizer in a dynamic process of continuous change, driven by intense competition. Works councils represent the interests of workforces and strive within this framework for a social balance of economic efficiency requirements for employees as well as for employment, thereby stabilizing, among other things, the maintenance of organizational commitment and trust in continuous change.
