Florida Atlantic University Striking a Balance in Labor Relations Questions

Question Description

ONLY DO 3 QUESTIONS

ONLY USE THE TEXT BOOK

At the end of Chapter 6, answer the Reflection Questions on page 224:

Outline the pros and cons of the NLRAs election-based union recognition process. Why do labor unions seem to criticize this process more than businesses? Describe some alternative means for deciding questions of representation. What do you think would be best for the workplaces and workforce of the 21st century? Refer back to the Labor Relations Application: The Case against Employer Campaigning on p. 211-should employers be excluded from the representation process?
In a concise paragraph, paraphrase what you have learned about union strategies in organizing drives to describe these strategies to a new union organizer.
Bob Ulrich, CEO of nonunion retailer Target, justifies his companys antiunion philosophy by saying that Target simply doesnt believe that third-party representation would add anything for our customers, our employees, or our shareholders. We just do not believe its productive and adds value. Critique this stance.
Should employees be allowed to use company e-mail systems to discuss common work related concerns pertaining to their wages, benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment? How about to discuss unionizing? If not, what types of restrictions should companies be allowed to place on the use of their e-mail systems?
The HR Strategy p. 225 that follows contains four scenarios of union organizing drives that end with different decision points for management. Follow the instructions at the beginning of the box to analyze these scenarios.

The paper will be double-spaced using 12-point Times New Roman font and standard one-inch margins. The paper must be correctly formatted and documented using the 6^th Edition, APA style. See Rubric for grading purposes.
