Course Overview

Employers and employees or labor unions are on opposite sides of the bargaining table and usually represent divergent interests, so their relationship can sometimes be highly adversarial. However, both employers and unions can gain more out of their interactions if they improve their working relationships. Union-management cooperation characterizes a relationship between employers and labor unions that has the mutual aim of improving organizational performance and sustainability, which in turn benefits both the employer and employees.

Organizational management and employee unions work better together if they both acknowledge that the other has a legitimate and valued purpose. Management controls the resources and works environment of an organization while unions represent employees in getting the best terms and conditions of employment. Since the organization needs a happy, healthy, and productive workforce to meet its business goals and employees need a place to work, it is obvious that employers and employee unions are interdependent.

Mutual respect makes it easier for employers and employees to meet their goals because it facilitates negotiations and ensures neither party will unnecessarily take a hard stance on the other.

Directors and Managers today are continually challenged in managing their union workforce. It remains extremely important for them to have and utilize their available tools and learn new tools, to effectively manage their employees.

The information presented in this CPE Business Management webinar will save time and money for your organization as Managers will perform more effectively, as they embrace positive employee and labor-management relationships.
