Module 10: Industrial Relations and Trade Unions

1.Start with training the head of the firm to promote a well effective and proper discipline to all the
workers. A firm should start from the leader that leads with all the knowledge and understanding to the
process. An effective leader leads the union where both employers and employees can improve their
relationship. Another measure that helps in the relation of union and management is that employers
should know how to keep the employee secure with their interest, one of its examples is implementing a
healthy workplace law. A healthy workplace allows the firm to attain a working together team, which
leads the organization to its continuous improvements in the management.

2. No, it is just an enactment of an industrial dispute act in 1974 that was a statutory right recognized in
India. According to Section 22(1)(a) of the Act states that employees can go for the strike in case of
breach of contract provided a prior notice is given to the employer within 6 weeks of such strike.
Furthermore this also includes the employees of the government. Workers have an effective force at their
control to defend their rights and seek compensation for their rights. There was a broad assumption that
the employer was always in a place of authority and might impose harsh terms and conditions of
employment on the workers. Therefore, an instrument for agreements was developed.

3. New occupations will be created as a result of technological advancements, and the tasks and skill
requirements of both mid - aged workers will adapt. It is crucial for workers to update and upgrade their
skills in order to stay qualified and avoid falling obsolete. The fact that unions increase salaries should not
be a surprise as this has always been one of their main objectives for why employees prefer worker rights.

4. Since 1954, union membership has been dropping in the US, particularly since 1967, as union
involvement rates fell, so did the salaries of the middle class. Due to US manufacturing companies
moving their businesses to China and other low-wage nations while laying off US union workers, union
membership has decreased over the previous three decades.
5. In order to negotiate in good faith, all parties must meet, exchange bargaining proposals, and make an
honest effort to come to a resolution. This does not imply that in order to prevent a claim of unfair labor
practices, you must accept the other side's recommendations.

6. Workers typically obtain a larger proportion of productivity improvements as wages through collective
bargaining. This can then encourage teamwork, boost productivity inside the company, and support
stronger economic demand.

7. When a company closes a workplace or stops assigning work to its employees who are part of a
negotiating unit, a lockout occurs. A lockout is intended to put more pressure on the workers and their
union during collective bargaining.

8. Unfair labor practice strikes against prohibited employer behavior. When there are disagreements about
pay or benefits, there may be economic strikes. Recognition strikes against employers are aimed to
compel them to recognize unions. I discount Recognition since this is like the basic among the other
strikes.

9. Since Political function is is similar to trade union maybe I will agree but there is a consequences
maybe there is corruption may happened.
