Employee Relations
Productive employee relations in a unionized environment presents a unique set of challenges. However, the existence of a collective bargaining agreement does not preclude an employer from effectively managing their workforce. A dynamic communication process and partnering with union leadership to develop effective employee involvement programs can help develop positive relationships that transcend the stereotypical “labor/management” conflict environment. SolArena can provide a review of current programs and processes and provide recommendations that:
