Understanding Role of Unions in Canadian Context

Understanding Role of Unions in Canadian Context

Given that Union density is significantly decreasing in Canada – you are required to write a 500–600-word paper emphasizing on the following:

· With strict federal and provincial (British Columbia) employment laws – governing employer, and employee relationship – can Canadian employees still be exploited? This answer must be supported with real case examples taken from Canadian workplace. Descriptive answers will be marked down

You will be marked for the following:

1. Clarity: Refers to clarity of writing - How easily understandable your concepts are. How grammatically correct the entire project is? Although simple, error free English is okay but at post grad level you are required to write in formal/academic style.

1. References/Sources: You are required to use at least 5 references for the team project (at least 2or3 of 5 references should be academic/peer reviewed)

1. Formatting: Assignment should adhere to the APA formatting style; Times new roman, font size 12, double spacing. You should also know the difference between essay/paper and report.

1. Analysis: Analysis is at the heart of paper – this project requires you to analyse either regions or multinational companies and their union relations globally. You must focus your analysis on region specific/company specific knowledge. Theoretical assignments will be marked down. Use as many region specific/company specific examples as you can.

1. Paper requirements: Lastly, you will be assessed based on whether you have answered the questions being asked AND whether your group understood the paper requirements or not.
