HAZARD OR HARDSHIP: CRAFTING GLOBAL NORMS ON THE RIGHT TO REFUSE UNSAFE WORK
Book ID/图书代码： 03360013B65934
English Summary/英文概要： Today, hazardous work kills 2.3 million people each year and injures millions more. Among the most compelling yet controversial forms of legal protection for workers is the right to refuse unsafe work. The rise of globalization, precarious work, neoliberal politics, attacks on unions, and the idea of individual employment rights have challenged the protection of occupational health and safety for workers worldwide. In Hazard or Hardship, Jeffrey Hilgert presents the protection of refusal rights as a moral and a human rights question.
Hilgert finds that the protection of the right to refuse unsafe work, as constituted under international labor standards, is a failure and calls for a reexamination of worker health and safety policy from the ground up. The current model of protection follows an individual employment rights framework, which fails to protect workers against the inherent social inequalities within the employment relationship. To adequately protect the right to refuse as a human right, both in North America and around the world, Hilgert argues that a broader protection must be granted under a freedom of association framework. Hazard or Hardship will be a welcome resource for labor and environmental activists, trade union leaders, labor lawyers and labor law scholars, industrial relations experts, human rights advocates, public health professionals, and specialists in occupational safety and health.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 现今,每年有230万人死于危险工作，受伤害的人更多。最引人注目的但有争议的形式的法律保护就是工人有权拒绝不安全的工作。全球化的兴起,不稳定的工作,新自由主义政治,攻击工会以及个人就业权利的理念挑战全世界工人职业健康和安全保护法。在《危险或困难》一书中,杰弗瑞．希尔格特呈现拒绝权利的保护作为一种道德和人权问题。
希尔格特发现,按照国际劳工标准构成的有权拒绝不安全工作的保护，是失败的,并要求重头开始复审工人健康和安全政策。当前保护模型遵循个体就业权利的框架,它不能保护工人免受雇佣关系中固有的社会不平等。充分保护拒绝的权利是一种人权,在北美和世界各地,希尔格认为一个更广泛的保护必须被授予在结社自由框架中。《危险或困难》将会广受劳动力和环保人士、工会领袖、劳工律师和劳动法学者、劳资关系专家、人权倡导者、公共卫生专业人员和安全与健康专家的欢迎。(LNL)

杰弗里．希尔格尔特的书提供了国家有权拒绝不安全工作的角度如何可以影响国际辩论的原始见解。这样做,可以让人们重新开始关注这一重要的人权。”——安尼•特里比尔科特,德国哥廷根大学劳动法研究所。
“太多的工厂火灾和矿井爆炸提醒我们工作可能是危险的。然而杰弗里．希尔格尔特表示,全球职业危害规范可能会限制工人拒绝不安全工作条件的权力,有效地保护管理特权,而不是加强工人的声音。认为目前的工作场所安全方法可能无意中增加工人的脆弱性,这本书将会对全球讨论关于政府、工会、雇主保护工人免受伤害提供一个警醒。”-加伊．塞德曼, 威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校社会学教授,《超出抵制:劳工权利,人权和跨国行动》的作者
