Union Shops
There are a number of industries who have historically used third party representatives to negotiate contracts for their workforce. Some will say it makes it easier for management, as all they have to do is follow the contract, others will say the contract puts constraints on treating employees as individuals. Employers who do not want their employees to find a union to represent their interests should ensure they listen, listen, and listen, to what the workforce is saying. Train the managers to communicate, communicate, and communicate. Employers who have a union as their business partner should make sure they train their managers to correctly interpret the contract, and when time to negotiate a new contract, ensure they have the right team at the table. They will live and breathe whatever is in the contract for a long time.
