Prerequisite: 52:533:365. This course offers a study of the relationships between management and employees in both unionized and non-union environments, in both the private and public sectors. Non-union employee relations requires leadership for a positive work climate, including the development of programs, policies; practices in support of employees and the work they do (e.g. safety and wellness) and general conflict resolution. Labor relations with unionized employees offers more emphasis on administering due process and collective bargaining, developing strategies for contract negotiations, implementation of negotiated agreements; alternative dispute resolution.
