Thesis (M.A.)--Carleton University (Canada), 2006.

This thesis examines the constraints and opportunities facing public sector labour unions in negotiating extended health benefits for workers in precarious employment relationships. It finds that there have been only incremental gains in achieving extended health benefits for this group of workers and those gains have been only in the largest bargaining units. The constraints of collective bargaining structures and a neoliberal political economic regime require political strategies in addition to collective bargaining ones if health benefit coverage for workers in precarious employment relationships is to be improved. It is argued that sectoral and class-based collective bargaining would provide the means to ameliorate the conditions of their members and create opportunities for organized workers to act as agents for transformative social change through a project of conscious class formation.
