PhD Studentship: Employment Rights and the Shareholder: Workers Rights vs ‘Owners’ Rights

Applications are invited to undertake a full-time, three-year PhD studentship starting in October 2018. The deadline for applications is Wednesday 09 May 2018 and interviews will be held on Tuesday 15 May 2018.

The proposed research project explores the relationship between corporate law and labour law. The project will seek show how, both in a historical, comparative and contemporary sense, the corporate veil that shields shareholders who own shares in limited liability companies has the effect of limiting workers’ ability to realise basic labour rights. 

The PhD studentship will be undertaken in collaboration between the University of Liverpool (Department of Sociology, Social Policy and Criminology), the University of Manchester (School of Law) and The Institute of Employment Rights. 

The studentship covers full-time academic fees and provides a yearly stipend (£14,553 in 2017/18). 

We are seeking to appoint a PhD student who has a commitment to protecting and enhancing employment rights.
