Document Summary
The negotiated labour management agreement (labour contract) is an agreement that sets the tone and clarifies the terms and conditions under which management and labour agree to function over a period of time. Labour unions insist that contracts contain a union security clause that stipulates employees who benefit from a union must either officially join or pay dues to the union. The labour contract usually contains checkoff which is a contract clause requiring the employer to deduct union dues from employees" pay and remit them to a union. A grievance is a charge by employees that management is not abiding by or fulfilling the terms of a negotiated labour-management agreement. Over time rules, promotion, layoffs are sources of grievance. These grievances are solved by shop stewards that are union officials who work permanently in an organization and represent employee"s interests on a daily basis.
