AM24: Trends in Labor Management Relations: Administration and Unions Co-Existing

This session will share how to navigate complex labor-management relationships as faculty, staff, and student unionization grow. Learn about the many unique aspects of labor relations and how they impact higher education—the nature of the institution (e.g., public or private), location of the institution, rights afforded via State Law, rights extended to student workers, work stoppages, and the associated costs. Early awareness and strategic financial planning will lead to healthier relationships, more robust contingency planning, and better negotiation frameworks. Panelists will offer experienced views and practical advice focused on approaches to collaborative labor relations and how effectively managing and implementing all aspects of collective bargaining is critical. 

Learning Objectives

• Examine the current labor environment, economic factors, and trends in higher education
• Identify strategies for engaging stakeholders with sometimes competing interests in a collaborative, transparent, and equitable manner
• Develop meaningful outcome measures for labor-management relations at your institution
