RI/IR invites you to submit manuscripts for the forthcoming thematic issue “The Socio-Environmental Restructuring of Work and Employment: Processes, Effects and Governance”.

This call for papers of Relations Industrielles/Industrial Relations seeks to deepen reflection on the consequences of the environmental crisis by focusing specifically on the socio-environmental restructuring of work and employment. It seeks to advance theoretical and empirical knowledge on the consequences of the environmental crisis for various actors in the world of work, for organizations and for the regulation of employment. We, therefore, seek to understand how these restructurings are translated into processes and effects and in the governance of work and employment. The purpose of this call for papers is to take a cross-cutting look at the levels, extent and scope of the issues on which the climate crisis has an impact, and on the multiple emerging risks and their unequal distribution. We also invite research exploring socio-environmental restructuring that have implications for public and industrial policies, as well as those expanding theoretical reflections in the broader field of industrial relations. 

The guest editors for this thematic issue are Mathieu Dupuis (Department of Industrial Relations, Université Laval), Julie Hagan (School of Industrial Relations, Université de Montréal), Vincent Pasquier (Department of Human Resources Management, HEC Montréal) and Sara Pérez-Lauzon (Department of Human Resources Management, HEC Montréal).

Deadline for submissions: June 15th, 2025
