  Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Collective bargaining   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
The term is reputed to have been coined by the British academic Beatrice Webb in the late 19th century to describe a process alternative to that of individual bargaining between an employer and its individual employees.
Other writers have emphasised the conflict resolution aspects of collective bargaining, but in Britain the most important refinement was that made by Allan Flanders, who defined it as a process of rule-making, leading to joint regulation in industry.
In Britain collective bargaining has been, and has been endorsed as, the dominant and most appropriate means of regulating workers' terms and conditions of employment, in line with ILO Convention No. 84 for many years.

 Human resources - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Advocating the central role of "human resources" or human capital in enterprises and societies has been a traditional role of socialist parties, who claim that value is primarily created by their activity, and accordingly justify a larger claim of profits or relief from these enterprises or societies.
Critics say this is just a bargaining tactic which grew out of various practices of medieval European guilds into the modern trade union and collective bargaining unit.
By 1920, psychologists and employment experts in the United States started the human relations movement, which viewed workers in terms of their psychology and fit with companies, rather than as interchangeable parts.

 Morales Letter Opinion No. 98-102
The exclusive bargaining agent for the fire fighters of a department is the association selected by a majority of the fire fighters.
The Oklahoma court held that because the statute defined and determined the make-up of the fire fighters bargaining unit, the make-up of the unit was not a proper subject for negotiation between the city and the union.
Consequently, we conclude that a city and a fire fighters association may not negotiate to exclude from a collective bargaining unit certain "high ranking fire fighters" who are within the statutory definition of the term "fire fighters" entitled to participate in collective bargaining.

 132 Wn.2d 450, PASCO POLICE ASS'N v. CITY OF PASCO
An impasse is reached in labor contract negotiations between a public employer and a collective bargaining unit when, after a reasonable period of good faith negotiation, the parties have reached their final positions but remain at odds over one or more mandatory bargaining subjects.
unilaterally imposed by a public employer, a collective bargaining unit is not forced to waive its rights with respect to a mandatory subject of collective bargaining by the public employer's insistence on bargaining the subject to impasse.
A public employer and a collective bargaining unit engaged in labor contract negotiations may act in a manner that could be classified as intransigent and make sudden and unilateral changes in their positions so long as they do not violate their duty to bargain in good faith.

The Letter of Demand advised Petitioner, a member of a bargaining unit, that collection of the debt from his pay could be challenged under provisions of the collective bargaining agreement.
That Petitioner was a postmaster and not a member of a collective bargaining unit at the time Respondent alleges the debt came into existence does not entitle Petitioner to the procedures of Part 961.
The Memorandum of Understanding addressed Respondent's collection of debts from bargaining unit employees, but it contemplated the issuance of implementing regulations by Respondent before the procedures of 39 C.F.R. Part 961 were to be available to collective bargaining unit employees.

 Opinion #5803
In the absence of such a collective bargaining unit, the wages, hours and other conditions of employment are determined in individual contracts between the board of education and its school principals.
A collective bargaining agreement would be entered into by and between the board of education and the collective bargaining representative of the teachers.
Since the collective bargaining agreement is not with either the school principal or any organization of which he or she is a member, there would be no violation of 1968 PA 317; MCLA 15.321 et seq; MSA 4.1700(51) et seq, which prohibits contractual conflicts of interest involving public servants.

 Collective bargaining vote challenges AMA leadership   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
The remaining total of approximately 60,400 U.S. physicians eligible for AMA-sponsored collective bargaining is augmented by eligible resident and fellow physicians.
Another concern expressed by the Board was that HCFA might interpret widespread collective bargaining by residents as evidence that residents are employees rather than students, thus justifying further reductions in graduate medical education support.
For eligible physicians, membership in an NLRB-certified collective bargaining unit is important, first and foremost, because it requires the employers (hospitals, medical schools, HMOs, etc.) to bargain in good faith with the unit.

It recognizes that a statewide unit of family child care licensees is appropriate for purposes of negotiated rule-making under the Administrative Procedure Act.
If a union security clause is included in the collective bargaining agreement, the agreement must contain a process, to be administered by the exclusive bargaining unit representative, for hardship dispensation for license-exempt family child care providers who are also temporary assistance for needy families recipients or WorkFirst participants.

 Leiter Reports: A Group Blog: NYU Graduate Student Strike
For the purposes of the election that originally certified the union, the science students were excluded from the "bargaining unit" -- most likely because their votes would have doomed the unionization campaign.
The union filed a grievance claiming that we should instead have to hire someone in the bargaining unit, an NYU student—as it might be someone in history or sociology—to assist in the course, irrespective of qualifications.
So I assume that built into the collective bargaining agreements that govern the working conditions of orderlies, nurses, etc. must be safeguards that ensure that the union representation does not interfere with the doctors' decisions about what constitutes standards of care.
