Abstract

Rezension (Daniel Behruzi, junge Welt, 19.06.2018)Dieser Artikel untersucht Gewerkschaftsstrategien im Krankenhaussektor in Deutschland und Großbritannien. Die Gesundheitssysteme der beiden Länder stehen vor ähnlichen Herausforderungen, z.B. demografischer Wandel, Privatisierung von Krankenhäusern und öffentlicher Spardruck. Die Arbeitsbeziehungen im Krankenhaussektor unterscheiden sich jedoch zwischen beiden Ländern und weichen außerdem von den jeweiligen Systemen der nationalen Arbeitsbeziehungen ab. Im (erodierenden) korporatistischen System Deutschlands mit einem hohen Grad an tarifpolitischer Koordinierung weist der Krankenhaussektor ein im weltweiten Vergleich hohes Niveau an Privatisierung auf, womit eine Fragmentierung der Arbeitsbeziehungen einhergeht. Im Gegensatz dazu sind im pluralistischen System Großbritanniens die nationalen Arbeitsbeziehungen stark dezentralisiert, während der Krankenhaussektor durch einen hohen Zentralisierungsgrad der Entgeltfindung geprägt ist. Die empirischen Befunde für den Krankenhaussektor verweisen auf relativ intakte Handlungslogiken der Koordinierung und Kooperation in Großbritannien, während gleichzeitig Organisierungsstrategien zum selbstverständlichen Handlungsrepertoire der Gewerkschaften gehören. In Deutschland sind neue Handlungsformen entstanden, die Organisierung und Tarifpolitik integrieren („bedingungsgebundene Tarifarbeit“).
