"Vielfältiger Organisationswandel der Unternehmen hat die Institution des Betriebsrats aufgewertet und das wissenschaftliche Interesse an ihr erhöht. Untersuchungen über Betriebsräte haben sich in der Vergangenheit nahezu ausschließlich der Fallstudien-Analyse bedient. Im folgenden wird über eine repräsentative postalische Befragung von 726 Betriebsräten im Maschinenbau West und Ostdeutschlands berichtet. Die Darstellung und Interpretation der Ergebnisse beziehen sich auf folgende Themenbereiche: Ressourcen der Betriebsräte, Verhältnis zum Management, Direkte Partizipation und Human Resource Management, Betriebsvereinbarungen und die Zukunft des Flächentarifvertrags, Verhältnis zu den Gewerkschaften. Abschließend wird der Versuch unternommen, mit Hilfe eines Index eine Typologie der Betriebsräte unseres Samples zu bilden." (Autorenreferat)... view less

"The variety of organisational change in firms has enhanced the position of works councils, and increased research interest in them. In the past, research on works councils focused almost exclusively on case studies. This article is based on a representative postal survey of 726 works councils in the machine tool sector in West and East Germany. The presentation and interpretation of the results relates to the following themes: the resources available to works councils, relations with management, direct participation and Human Resource Management, workplace agreements, the future of industry agreements, and relations with unions. The article concludes with an attempt to construct a typology of works councils based on this information." (author's abstract)... view less
