In class the guest speak, Michelle, spoke on the Union and her role in the Union and as a library staff member.

As an ardent believer is Socialism and Democracy (The two are intrinsic to one another), I support unions.

The following are a few benefits of a union:

When developing contracts there are some important points to remember:

Read company and employee news
Look to improve or maintain
Have a bargaining team
Pattern bargaining
Money is the last thing talked about

Points that managers should keep in mind:
Understand what your people do
Contracts give structure
