Discussion

For this module, you are required to read Chapters 6, 7, and 8 in your textbook. Consider the following questions as you read:

• To what extent should the NLRB be involved in determining a bargaining unit?
• Are employers and unions equal in influence when employees are trying to decide about organizing?
• What kinds of things would you definitely want settled if you were negotiating your employment arrangements?
• Can the free market of labor supply and demand accommodate the needs of both management and labor without further interference of organizing campaigns?
