Labor Relations: Development, Structure, Processes discusses the history and development of labor relations, the structure of union organizations, union organizing and union avoidance, bargaining issues, and the process of negotiations and contract administration.

4.0 out of 5 stars necessary for HRM and managers and supervisors, April 22, 2010
By 
This review is from: Labor Relations: Development, Structure, Processes (Hardcover)
Fossum has done an outstanding job of presenting the work of Human Resource Management in dealing with the union. He hits all of the bases and presents the material in a way that is useful for the practitioner of Human Resource Management.

Such a book as this is also necessary for any manager or supervisor to understand the relationship between their jobs (positions) and those who work for them who are in the union.

This is good material and should be on the desk in read by business people.
