MPILHLT Concepts of Work Regulations

Description

This repository contains a systematic taxonomy used to describe various aspects of (non-state) working regulations such as contracts and company regulations. It was developed beginning in 2021, in order to annotate full texts of such regulations in the context of the project Non-state law of the economy. The normative order of industrial relations in the metal industry from the Empire to the early years of the Federal Republic of Germany at Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory, Frankfurt.

The *.ttl files encode the taxonomy it as a SKOS vocabulary in turtle (ttl) format.

We have decided to split the scheme into a series of separate taxonomies for actions, physical objects and spaces, prescriptive aspects, reflexive and meta-aspects, regulation terms and social roles, respectively. Thus, each taxonomy manages concepts about the things of the same "kind" (and it is easier to integrate it into a working environment where you want to access different aspects in isolation using different commands or GUI buttons). The worktime_regulation.ttl reflects an earlier stage of the scheme where everything was still integrated in one big taxonomy. It misses some concepts and alternative labels that the other, more up-to-date, files have been augmented with.

The homepage of the vocabularies is at https://w3id.org/mpilhlt/vocabs-worktime. Individual concepts and concept schemes are at https://w3id.org/mpilhlt/worktime[_subvoc]/[version/][id] (where subvoc is an optional component if you want to refer to one of the narrower concept schemes, the optional version is a specific version of the respective vocabulary -- or "latest", which is also the default if you don't specify a version -- and id is the optional identifier of the concept or concept scheme).

The source files for these vocabularies are maintained at https://github.com/mpilhlt/vocabs-worktime/, and deposited to the research data repository zenodo at https://zenodo.org/record/8386361 (DOI:10.5281/zenodo.8386360).
