for Labour Law and Industrial Relations
in the European Union
THE INSTITUTE
The employees of the IAAEU research the underlying economic and legal conditions for labour in a constantly changing European society. Our task is project-related research, which is interdisciplinary, socially relevant and receives international attention. The goal is to influence the public discourse with scientific findings and thereby improve the conditions for labour and industrial relations. In that light, the institute understands itself as an initiating force for other researchers and for the region. The IAAEU was founded as a public law foundation in 1983. The institute is financed by the German Federal State of Rhineland-Palatinate and is also a scientific institution attached to Trier University. It is located on Campus II of the University.
Research at the IAAEU takes place under a tight cooperation between the two chairs of the co-directors Prof. Dr. Dres. h.c. Monika Schlachter (International and European Labour Law and Civil Law) and Prof. Dr. Laszlo Goerke (Business Administration – Personnel Economics). Furthermore, the institute maintains an extensive library with a unique collection of works pertinent to labour law, industrials relations, particularly industrial relations between member states of the EU, and personnel economics.
Marco Clemens, a PhD student and member of the economics team at IAAEU, visited the University of Ottawa (uOttawa) from September 1 to October 30, 2023. During his visit, Mr. Clemens participated in a variety of research seminars and workshops on topics such as the size of the labor market, unemployment insurance, and perspectives on relocation from China.
Sven Hartmann, a research associate at IAAEU, was rewarded for his outstanding Doctoral Thesis by the Association "Freundeskreis Trierer Universität e. V." in November 2023.
During a six-week research stay abroad, Jonas Feld, a member of the economics team at IAAEU, had the opportunity to visit Waseda University in the heart of Tokyo, Japan – one of the country's most prestigious institutions.
Theresa Geißler, research associate at the IAAEU, has been awarded the PhD Paper Award at the 25th conference of the International Network for Economic Research (INFER). The conference took place in early September at the University of Valencia, Spain.
Language assistants based on artificial intelligence (e.g. Alexa, Siri, Google Home) are already widespread in the private domain. They are also increasingly used in the workplace to increase productivity or counteract the shortage of skilled workers. Language assistants can, for example, provide employees with information that they need to carry out a task. But how do employees react to intelligent language assistants? Do these merely represent a further development of the technological equipment such as computers, as has already taken place in many cases, or do intelligent voice assistants represent a qualitatively different development?
