Union bargaining
Union bargaining is the process where representatives of a group of employees (the union) negotiate with employers to agree on working conditions, wages, benefits, and other employment terms. The goal is to reach a mutually acceptable contract that protects workers' interests and ensures fair treatment. This negotiation often involves discussions, proposals, and compromises, aiming to balance the needs of the workers and the employer. When agreement is reached, it is formalized in a contract that governs the employment relationship for a specified period.
