The paper discusses briefly the political structure of the industrializing elite in India, Sri Lanka and Singapore and the industrial policy and industrial relations strategies they adopted as part of their national economic development planning process. Worker participation at the national and enterprise levels was adopted as an important strategy for improving industrial relations and for managing human resources. An indepth analysis of the influence of political structure on worker participation indicates significantly different results among the three countries. The multiple-political-parties-multiple-trade-unions structure in India and Sri Lanka impeded the functioning of worker participation and resulted in increased industrial conflict while the single-party-single-union structure in Singapore facilitated complete control of industrial conflict. Nevertheless, industrial relations strategies in the three countries are more or less similar and, if implemented properly, would contribute to the development of an Asian industrial relations system. A few policies are suggested in the paper for implementation and for improving industrial relations to facilitate industrialization of these developing countries. (Intern. Polit. Science Assoc.)
