Thematic Lines

Cover a broad spectrum of issues related to individual and collective labor relations, social protection, and human resources. The thematic lines listed below provide a framework to guide research. However, it is important to note that these lines are not mutually exclusive but complement and intertwine dynamically. Interdisciplinarity is a fundamental characteristic of these fields, allowing for addressing current challenges from multiple perspectives. Authors are invited to propose topics that challenge disciplinary boundaries and contribute to expanding the horizons of research.

  • Individual and collective labor relations (contract modalities; working conditions; suspension and termination of contracts; worker representation; collective bargaining; labor conflicts; dispute resolution, etc.).
  • Social Security (coverage and social protection; regimes; benefits; financing; reforms and trends of the Social Security systems, etc.).
  • Labor Law and new technologies (telework; artificial intelligence and algorithms in the workplace; data protection in the work environment; digital platforms and collaborative work, etc.).
  • Equality and discrimination at work (reconciliation; violence and harassment, etc.).
  • Labor Law and globalization (labor mobility and cross-border work; multinationals and international labor relations; comparative labor law, etc.).
  • Health and safety protection at work (occupational risk prevention).
  • Corporate social responsibility and sustainability.
  • Legislative reforms and jurisprudence (analysis of new regulations; comments on relevant judicial pronouncements).
  • Talent management and organizational development (recruitment; competency development; organizational culture; change management, etc.).
  • New trends and technologies in human resources (digitalization; artificial intelligence; data analytics, etc.).
  • Corporate social responsibility and sustainability.
