CELSI researchers Barbora Holubová, Marta Kahancová, Lucia Kováčová and Adam Šumichrast, along with Lucia Mýtna Kureková and Steffen Torp, worked on a study that examines how the different systems of workers’ representation and industrial relations in Slovakia and Norway facilitate PwD work integration.

The paper’s conceptual contribution lies in including social dialogue actors in this ecosystem.

The paper, written by Marta Kahancová and Katarína Staroňová, was published in the European Journal of Industrial Relations. It questions to what extent the export-led growth model, based on foreign direct investment as driver of economic growth, influenced PSWS in Czechia and Slovakia after the 2008–2009 crisis. The paper provides new evidence of the appropriateness of the growth model literature, integrated by consideration of global production chains integration, for understanding PSWS in CEE conditions.
