Unions currently represent roughly thirty percent of the Canadian workforce, but the카지노 게임 컬렉션¯labour카지노 게임 컬렉션¯movement has a profound impact on all workplaces, both union and non-union. Studying unions involves a very different perspective from other disciplinary fields in employment relations, such as human resource management. For scholars and practitioners of카지노 게임 컬렉션¯labour카지노 게임 컬렉션¯relations, conflict is a natural feature of the employment relationship. While employees share some interests with employers, there are also diverging and conflicting interests between the parties. To study unions and카지노 게임 컬렉션¯labour카지노 게임 컬렉션¯relations, this course uses this pluralist perspective to analyze why workers form unions, how unions advocate for and represent employees, and what skills employers need to manage unionized workplaces.카지노 게임 컬렉션¯
