12-15 slides with speaker notes

In your role as VP of human resources, you have been involved in a number of suits brought on by the union; some you have won in front of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), and some you have lost. Because it is time for the annual factory supervisory management training, you thought you should put together a refresher training presentation for the supervisors and to assist your new hire, Jane, in dealing with major labor relations legislation and Supreme Court rulings.
