Abstract

Public sector industries play a very significant role in the economy of Bangladesh. A cordial labour-management relationship as a pre-condition to uninterrupted production in such industries is therefore highly desirable. In the privatisation policy in early industrialisation, pursued during the pre-liberation days, a contradiction between private owners and workers was inherent. Under the policy of massive nationalisation pursued after the independence, improved industrial relations in the public sector industries could reasonably be expected. But the published sources suggest an opposite picture. With this background, the present study has been undertaken to examine the general trend, causes and methods of handling of industrial disputes in the public sector industries and to make some policy recommendations for improving future public sector industrial relations based on a review of the Government policies and the objective and subjective perspectives of the various institutional machineries of dispute resolution.
