Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
In a union shop, workers are covered by the collective bargaining agreement which gives them protection which far outweighs workers' rights in nonunion settings. Only 13 percent of the work force is unionized; the rest must rely on federal and state laws for protection in the workplace. These books, both written by lawyers, discuss the myriad laws which are meant to protect union and nonunion workers alike. Citing numerous legal cases, both books examine, among other topics, wrongful discharge, discrimination at work, workers' compensation for more on this topic, see New Perspectives on Workers' Compensation , reviewed below-- Ed. , and occupational safety and health issues. While there is some overlap between the two books, McWhirter's is better for more detailed and technical information, and Rapoport's is best for a general audience.
