Collective bargaining

Collective bargaining is a term that is not well liked in the management arena because it is related to the unionization of the labor force.  Collective bargaining is the process through which employees get together with the agreement to form a union. During collective bargaining a few individuals representing the labor force get together with the employers to negotiate a job contract that lays out certain employment conditions, including salaries, benefits, vacation time, work hours, safety conditions and grievance procedures.

The United States government recognizes the right of workers to unionize and participate in collective bargaining through the passage of the National Labor Relations Act, a federal law setting the standards and regulations in the formation of unions and the process of collective bargaining.
