Discuss the role of HR professionals in labor-management relations.

Additional Information: SaharaOasis will have to hire union members for its U.S. warehouse positions. It is a stipulation in their collective bargaining agreement that if the organization expands its operations, the union will represent the warehouse workers. However, one of its U.S. locations is a “right-to-work” state.

Using Bloomberg Businessweek resources, research right-to-work laws, and respond to the following questions:

  ---  Briefly discuss the law that allows for right-to-work states to exist and why it was implemented. 

  ---  What does this mean for employees, and how does this differ from the union situation in non-right to work states? 

   ---  What does this mean for management and the organization in general? 

   ---  What advantages and disadvantages might there be for management and the organization? 

Provide a reference list at the end of your primary task response of at least 1 Bloomberg Businessweek articles, and include in-text citations for the articles in APA format.
