unionazation within organization do you agree
Solution
Imagine that you've just walked into the office and you see that one of your people, Mike, is
sitting at his desk without any work to do. So, you ask him to help another team member finish
an urgent job.
Mike refuses, saying that taking on a different role, even for a day, is not allowed under the
union contract. He tells you that, if you want him to do another team member's work, then you
must talk to the union, as it's not part of his job description.
You've only been in this role for a week, and now you're stressed and confused about what you
can and can't ask your people to do!
This might seem like an extreme example to many people, but it demonstrates that it can be
complicated to manage unionized workers, especially if you're new to this type of working
environment. In this article, we'll look at the complexities and challenges of managing in a
unionized workplace.
What is a Union?
Before workers began banding together, working conditions were often very poor. People could
work long hours for low pay, and with few benefits. They may even have worked in factories
that were dangerous, and where workplace accidents were common. In fact, workers had few
rights at all!
In response to such poor conditions, workers began joining together to pressure their employers
to improve their work environment
