The case highlights: the legal parameters regulating labor relations; the factors contributing to employee interest in union representation; union election campaign strategies and activities of employers and unions; the influence stakeholders have on labor-management relations; the importance of pre-contract negotiations; the interpretation of the outcome of contract negotiations; and the important role of contract administration. |
