You are currently a Human Resources Director at a company located in New England that has 220 employees on site. Recently there have been rumors spreading that some of the employees are interested in forming a union.
Your CEO is concerned about this rumor and has asked you to provide her with a memo including the following:
· What is the difference between Employee Relations and Labor Relations?
· What is the National Labor Relations Act and how does it impact Labor Relations?
· If the employees are attempting to organize, what will happen next? What are the steps in unionization?
· If the union is formed, how does the collective bargaining process work? What is normally included in a collective bargaining agreement?
In 2-3 pages, please compose a memo to the CEO providing that information.
