Teaching methods

The Professor will lead the course, but students' intervention or working papers will be appreciated

Assessment methods

At the end of the course there will be an oral examination, not before the month of June. It is also possible to arrange a personalised programme with the teacher, in order to focus the examination on a specific working paper realised by the student.

The outcome of the final exam will mainly depend on:

- being familiar with the main concept within the subject matter of the industrial relations law;

- being familiar with the main situations of power, rights and obligations of the employment relationship;

- being familiar with the main atypical employment relationships;

- good communication skills.

It's possible to attend the examination only for the students that have passed Diritto privato and Diritto costituzionale examinations.

In the current situation, the oral exam will take place through a video interview on the Microsoft Teams platform. On each occasion, a virtual classroom will be created for the exam and, if necessary, one or more virtual classrooms for the subcommittees, where students will have the opportunity to take the interview. Students who are registered in the exam will receive a specific communication on the institutional email, indicating the link or links to connect to on the day of the exam. To take the oral exam It is necessary to have a stable internet connection, a working webcam and microphone, as well as an identity document.
