Description:
Whether you are a non-union company or a company with a longstanding relationship with a union, strikes and picketing activity have increased dramatically over the last couple of years. Join us for a two-hour labor relations program on how to prepare for and succeed against strikes, pickets and boycotts.
This exciting program will examine what kinds of activity are lawful, and, most importantly, how to equip your company with the best contingency plan to counter the effectiveness of the union’s actions. HR and Labor Relations professionals will have the opportunity to explore effective lawful decisions in the face of such adversity.
