Collective Bargaining and Strikes


Collective Bargaining

Collective bargaining is the process by which management and labor negotiate the terms and conditions of employment.

§  The NLRB will certify an exclusive bargaining agent for labor.

§  Both labor and management must bargain in good faith, but the law does not require that they reach an agreement.

Strikes

There are two basic forms of strikes:

Economic Strikes.

These are strikes over wages.

Workers can be replaced by permanent replacements.

Unfair Labor Practice Strikes.

These are strikes alleging that the employer has committed an unfair labor practice.
