EMPLOYER-EMPLOYEE RELATIONS IN THE RAILROAD INDUSTRY. PART 1

The subject of employee relations is broken down in two areas - management employees and represented employees. Five points are recommended for the management-employees case: Know what is expected, give a chance to perform, let the person know how he is doing, provide assistance as needed, and provide reward or recognition. For represented employees, proper candidate selection, in-house training, job satisfaction and fighting against regimentation which leads to loss of identity are stressed.
