I Agree with the assessment that NRTW put forth because in the Article by Chris Brooks,” Why Did Nissan Workers Vote No” in Labor notes August 11,2017 issue talks about how Nissan brought more to the table then the union (UAW). Also in the Wal-Mart anti -union video- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_VL4gqrCHc, the employers and employees decided to continue to be pro associates and not allow a union to change anything in the Wal-Mart business.

    Rachael Martinelli Case Study 8-2: The Outsourced Work 1. Is BE bound by the terms of the project labor agreement, which it did not directly sign, including the duty to submit this labor dispute to final and binding arbitration for resolution? I believe that Bolton Engineering (BE) should not always be bound to the terms of the project labor agreement, that they did not directly sign.

They did not directly sign the with the labor union so they should only have to follow the labor union when they are working on the premises of Rocket Motor Corporation.

    While it is difficult to cultivate more total power, the union can increase its relative power by working with the community and its members in preparation for a strike or a prolonged bargaining period. The union can also hold campaigns to increase union perspective in the community, which increases its relative power. Furthermore, the union needs to analyze management’s total and relative power. Although the economy is currently struggling, the union should try and gather information about the company’s financial health, which gives them a better understanding of reasonable demands to make at the bargaining table. The union should also have an opened dialogue with management and communicate some key of their demands.
