Union Awareness
by Skillsoft
According to the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2004, 12.5 percent of wage and salary workers were union members--down from 12.9 percent in 2003. Why is membership declining? Perhaps the growing number of laws in place to protect workers prevents the necessity of unions, or perhaps the nature of the work itself has changed. Regardless of the decline, workers still have the legal right to form unions, and you need a basic understanding of workers' rights, and what rights you have as an employer. It's important to understand why employees form unions, and how best to deal with them in your workplace. SkillSoft's Legal Compliance courses are developed and maintained with subject matter support provided by the Labor, Employment, and Employee Benefits Law Group of the law firm of Sheehan Phinney Bass + Green PA.Audience: Managers and supervisorsObjectives: The Legal Base of Labor Unions identify the main characteristics of labor unions. identify good practices for handling the formation of a union in the workplace. recognize the benefits of good practices when union formation activities occur in the workplace. recognize acceptable employer behavior under labor union laws. identify an employer's obligations to employees under labor union laws. identify the characteristics of a bargaining unit. recognize the clauses in a Collective Bargaining Agreement. recognize the positions, strategies, and subjects of collective bargaining.Employers and the NLRB identify the practices employers can use to prevent union formation in the workplace. recognize the benefits of avoiding union formation in the workplace. match union organizing tactics with their uses. sequence the steps involved in the union recognition process. sequence the process of conducting a union election. recognize examples of how an employer may legally respond to union activity. recognize the role of the NLRB in preventing unfair labor practices. determine how an organization can comply with the NLRA in a given scenario.

Interviewing and Hiring Practices
by Skillsoft
This course is intended to teach learners how to exercise sound judgment in the hiring and interviewing process. Not many companies nowadays specify discriminatory characteristics either directly or openly in an advertisement, unless these are required by a bona fide occupational qualification. Your advertising medium, the questions you ask on forms, what you discuss in company publications, and your interview questions combine to create an impression of you and your organization. It may happen, unintentionally, that your recruiting, interviewing, and hiring processes illegally or unfairly discriminate against "protected" individuals or minority groups. It may also happen that your company communicates the wrong message unintentionally. This course helps to recognize aspects of discrimination in advertising and other recruitment materials, and how to avoid the use of discriminatory language. The course also highlights employers' legal obligations regarding discrimination and other recruitment issues, and the importance of basing your recruitment decisions on a valid business reason or a bona fide occupational qualification.
