Applied Project Directions and Rubric

Final 2: Applied Project: Union Avoidance Program due in Unit 5

Scenario: Union Avoidance Project

You are a Human Resources manager at your organization (or one you choose). At the current time, none

of your employees belongs to a union. However, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, a national

union, is attempting to organize your employees. The senior management of your company appears to be

adamantly opposed to the presence of a union at your company and wants to do everything possible to

defeat this union drive, including, if necessary:

 Speaking to individual workers, to let them know what management regards as the dangers of

unionization, including economic harm to the company and possible layoffs.

 Assembling all workers, in large groups, to speak against unionization, and asking all workers to

declare publicly whether they intend to vote for or against the union.

 Making pay changes, both up and down, to certain workers to prove that employees are better off

without a union, and may suffer if they play too active a role in organizing.

Immediately laying off all desk clerks and subcontracting the work to a part‐time labor force.

 Other strategies suggested by your research as well.

Based on these facts, you are to prepare a union avoidance program for the company's senior

management team. This program should:

 Summarize management’s rights during an organizing drive and respond specifically to each of

the possible actions listed above.

 Outline your complete strategy in supporting the company’s position of remaining union-free.
