PROPER GRIEVANCE HANDLING MAKES UNIONS NECESSARY

The "classical workshop" and the "non-union contract" can facilitate the effective communication engineers need concerning salary, advancement, benefits, performance evaluation, and other personnel policies and practices. Conventional procedures for communicating and handling grievances are frequently ineffective and can result in unionization attempts. The "classical workshop," which assures the individual anonymity and protection missing in conventional procedures, can clear communication blockages, quickly identify problem areas, and develop trust in upper management. The "non-union contract" is a publication that clearly describes local personnel policies and practices. The "classical workshop" and the "non-union contract" incorporate the most attractive features of union grievance procedures and union contracts into a format compatible with professional needs.
