Know Thy Enemy: A Union Organizer's Game Plan

Abstract

Each month, we take time to offer information to union-free employers on the tactics and strategies they may consider to maintain their status. This month, we take a moment to look at the coin from the other side, to take a glimpse into how a union organizer will pursue efforts to flip a non-union work environment. The game plan that follows will allow readers an opportunity to view what is considered by the union organizer. In knowing thy enemy, management can be better positioned to implement its own strategies.
