The future of labor relations in the federal sector
Article Abstract:
Some 30 years have passed since President Kennedy's executive order on employee-management cooperation in government, and some progress has been made. There has been a definite growth in dispute resolution mechanisms for labor grievances. The Office of Personnel Management publishes and disseminates information on labor-management cooperation in the federal sector and conducts training programs to facilitate this practice. Decisions by the Federal Labor Relations Authority have continued to expand the collective bargaining rights of public employees.

Labor-management cooperation: in need of an implicit or explicit agreement
Article Abstract:
The American system of labor-management relations is in need of reworking to counter aggressive employers, popularity of anti-union consultants and the increase in unfair labor practices of the 1980s. Among the changes should be employer acceptance of labor unions, employee-employer cooperation geared toward common goals. International union staff can counsel local unions just as employers have the benefit of international consultants. Such a spirit of cooperation will increase product quality and productivity, and encourage innovations.
