Impact of collective bargaining on management
Slichter, Sumner H.
Impact of collective bargaining on management - Washington Brookings Institution 1960 - 982 p.
THIS BOOK DEALS WITH some results of the most distinctive characteristic of the American system of industrial relations, the process of collective bargaining between labor and management. The terms of employment in the United States are determined, more than anything else, by the collective bargain and are embodied in agreements negotiated between employers and unions. These agreements are supplemented by laws, such as workmen's compensation laws, social security laws, wage and hour laws, and factory legislation, but the fact remains that the main immediate determinant of most conditions of employment is the labor-management agreement. about 125,000 such agreements in force at any one time, the American workman is more richly endowed with self-determined rights than the workman of any other country, and American managements must conduct their operations within an elaborate framework of rules and policies imposed by collective agreements and trade unions.
