发达经济体改善和保护劳工标准的传统机制正在失效。在英国，集体谈判的有效性在过去的四分之一世纪世纪里已经大大减弱。法律上可强制执行的最低劳工标准并不能充分替代。一种新的“联合监管”形式正在出现，可能更适合当代产品市场竞争的结构。它涉及雇主和工会协调对生产特定商品或服务作出贡献的公司供应链上的劳工标准行动。本文通过两个案例研究，探讨了这些“社会可持续采购”机制的发展情况，并探讨了它们对劳工标准的影响。
The traditional mechanisms for improving and protecting labour standards in advanced economies are failing. In Britain, the effectiveness of collective bargaining has diminished substantially over the past quarter century. Legally enforceable minimum labour standards have been an inadequate substitute. A new form of ‘joint regulation’ is emerging that may be better attuned to the contemporary structure of product market competition. It involves employers and unions coordinating action on labour standards across the supply chains of firms that contribute to the production of a particular good or service. This article explores the circumstances in which these ‘socially sustainable sourcing’ mechanisms develop and examines their impact on labour standards, by means of two case studies.
