5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read For Union Leaders, December 21, 2007

By

This review is from: The Legal Rights of Union Stewards (Plastic Comb)

This book should be the first thing any new union officer reads and as a long time union officer I read it at least once a year to refresh myself. As president of my local union I make sure all of our officers and stewarts have their own copy to read and refer back to as they have need to. "The Legal Rights of Union Stewarts", answers many questions and provides a knowledge base for more indepth learning.

This review is from: The Legal Rights of Union Stewards (Plastic Comb)

I've been a steward for 2 years and heard of this book from a fellow steward. It has been very informative, helpful, and it is in a condensed format thereby making it user friendly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must Read for Management!, February 9, 2011

By 

Nevada Friend - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Legal Rights of Union Stewards (Plastic Comb)

This book should be on the mandatory reading list for all managers - it is helpful to learn the union steward's perspective and his / her reaction to poor management behavior. I worked on the "management" side of the bargaining table for many years. This book, given to me by a Local president, was one of the most informative books on the topic of union relations that I had read. Unlike many management books, which are packed with facts and defensive measures, this book taught me how to become a better manager in a union environment; something that was a benefit for the Union Stewards, the employees and my employer. Any union with a goal of improving the work environment of the employees should think about giving a copy of this to the supervisors with whom they come into contact with daily.
