Union Organizing and Bargaining Strategies 2010 and beyond: What every business should know!
Learn how American and Canadian unions have organized new members in the first decade of the new millennium and what you need to know to protect your business from union certification.
If your workplace is unionized and you want to learn about the strategies unions use to increase leverage at the bargaining table, attend this exclusive one-day presentation by one of Canada’s most respected negotiators.
If your workplace is non-union and you want to keep it that way, you should attend and learn about what you need to do to remain union-free.
The Negotiation Institute has retained the former Director of Collective Bargaining for Canada’s largest private sector trade union for an exclusive one-day session about union bargaining strategies; the techniques unions are currently using to organize new workplaces; and, where unions are heading in the future.
You might be surprised to learn that American and Canadian unions are currently embarking on the biggest recruitment campaign since the end of the Second World War. Industries that are particularity vulnerable and are being aggressively targeted by unions include but are not limited to:
retail . processing . agricultural . janitorial . health care . banks . office . universities / colleges . communications . shipping . printing . hotels -restaurants . drug companies / pharmacies . construction . transportation
With an Obama administration, The United States has become one of the best places in North America for unions to recruit new union members. Modeled after Canadian legislation, The Employee Free Choice Act will substantially increase the ability of American unions to organize new members.
In Canada, the unionization rate is more than 30% as compared to just 12% in the U.S. The reason for this is, in part, due to Canadian labour legislation making it easier for unions to target workplaces and to force collective bargaining arrangements on unsuspecting employers. The Employee Free Choice Act will change the rules completely and your company will become vulnerable to union organizers under this Bill.
Learn why unions are devoting huge economic resources to organizing in the U.S. and how your business might be targeted.
