Participants in our panel discussion will learn techniques to create a consensual process when working within a union environment. The current process by which a union comes into the workplace and the potential effect of EFCA. They will have insight from both a Manager’s and a Union Organizer perspective, and learn about the role the FMCS can play in creating a work agreement.
