Learning Objectives

The course aims to provide students with the fundamental tools for understanding international and EU labor law. The knowledge of these subjects is crucial to be fully aware of the interactions between different legal systems, with the related multi-level protection of the worker's rights. Given the particular importance of the issue of the protection of the health and safety of workers in this degree course, a particular attention will be paid to the community origin of the existing prevention discipline. Its knowledge is essential in order to carry out competently professional activities related to the law of safety at work.

Program

After providing an introduction of the institutions of the International Labor Organisation (ILO) and the European Union, the course addresses the main tools available to the ILO and the fundamental sources and principles of EU social law, with a specific focus on issues concerning the protection of health and safety in the workplace, related to the aspects concerning working hours and the so-called atypical employment relationships. The course will be also considering two relevant issues regarding the European Union labour law, such as discrimination and business crises, focusing on their impact on the internal legal system. Finally, the delicate relations between the international legal system, the Community legal system and the Italian legal system will be examined by using, for example, the analysis of the recent case law of the Constitutional Court. In particular, after the presentation of the course, the topics will be addressed as follows:

1. The International Labour Organisation (ILO) and EU institutions. – 2. The ILO's tools and the guiding principles. – 3. The sources of Community law and the fundamental principles of social matters. – 4. The case of occupational health and safety protection. Working hours and "atypical" jobs. – 5. The European Union law on discrimination and business crises. – 6. The relationship between the internal system, the Community system and the international system on labor matters. – 7. A case study: the use of international and EU sources in two recent decisions of the Constitutional Court.

Assessment

The expected learning results will be evaluated by means of an oral exam, based on three questions or more. The oral mode allows to evaluate, in the most complete way, as well as the communication skills of the student, the acquisition of analytical and critical skills required to students considering the complexity of issues and arguments of which they must demonstrate knowledge and understanding.

The evaluation criteria and the scale of marks are as follows:

less than 18/30: competence level insufficient. The student doesn’t reach the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding”.

18-20: competence level sufficient. In particular, the student attains the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding”.

21-23: competence level satisfactory. In particular, the student attains the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding” and in “applied knowledge and understanding”.

24-26: competence level good. In particular, the student attains the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding”, “applied knowledge and understanding” and “making judgments”.

27-29: competence level very good. In particular, the student attains the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding”, “applied knowledge and understanding”, “making judgments” and “communication skills”.

30-30 with honours: competence level excellent. The student fully attains the learning results described in “knowledge and understanding”, “applied knowledge and understanding”, “making judgments” and “learning skills”.

The students who attend the course regularly (at least 2/3 of the lessons) can take a written mid-term test (multiple choice), carried out outside of the class timetable, regarding the following topics 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the program. The maximum evaluation of this exam is in 30ths.  

For attending students who have successfully passed the intermediate test, the final exam will consist of an oral discussion which will focus exclusively on the following topics 5, 6 and 7 of the program. For attending students who have not taken or have not successfully passed the intermediate exam, the final exam consists of an oral discussion which will focus on all the exam program.
