STRESS IN THE WORKPLACE
According to the Australian Council of Trade Unions’ (A.C.T.U.) 1997 survey, fifty per cent of workers had suffered some form of stress at work in a 12-month period. The statistics in care professions were even higher, with the Department of Education and Training in Western Australia reporting in its 2002 Attitudes To Teaching Survey that seventy per cent of teachers identified workplace stress as a cause for concern in their teaching positions.

National Labor Relations Board FAQs
The National Labor Relations Board is an independent federal agency created by Congress in 1935 to administer the National Labor Relations Act, the primary law governing relations between unions and employers in the private sector. The statute guarantees the right of employees to organize and bargain collectively with their employers or to refrain from all such activity. Generally applying to all employers involved in interstate commerce - other than airlines, railroads, agriculture, and government - the Act implements the national labor policy of assuring free choice and encouraging collective bargaining as a means of maintaining industrial peace. Through the years, Congress has amended the Act and the Board and courts have developed a body of law drawn from the statute.

3.10 Conclusions: Organizing to overcome poverty: Working Out of Poverty
The ILO portfolio of policy advice includes a range of interventions that act directly on the quantity and quality of jobs for the poor and the main expressions of social exclusion. The organizational base provided by trade unions and employers’ organizations is frequently at the core of action to bring together a variety of social institutions with government and public agencies in a common endeavour for sustainable community development.

Emissions Trading (Cap and Trade)
Cap and Trade systems are gaining in attention today. Much of the developed world operates under Cap and Trade but it's a mystery to many in the U.S. Some believe it's the best way to promote emission reductions. Cap and Trade has been introduced for consideration in congress with a reasonable chance of being enacted into law in 2009. This article discusses Cap and Trade fundamentals.

Film Production: Working with Unions
Unions were created to protect workers from unfair wages and poor working conditions. If a producer wants to use any union labor, then that producer will have to become a signatory to the appropriate union contract. This does not necessarily mean that the production must hire only union labor, nor does it mean that the production will need a big budget. Some unions, such as the Screen Actors Guild (”SAG”) offer various contract options for small and medium budget films.

Interview Techniques for Employers
Interview techniques for employers. Most employers do not know why or how to interview, and either spend the time asking silly questions, or telling the interviewee all about themselves. This guide is aimed at advising employers on the need for affective questioning and how to do this.

Employee Free Choice Act: An Opportunity for Employers to Choose their Future
The proposed Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) before Congress is making many employers feel threatened they could be bargaining with unions instead of dealing directly with their employees. Instead of focusing on whether the law is going to pass – which it will, in some form – you need to be paying attention to the real issue: How are you treating your employees every day? The fact is, union representation holds little attraction to employees who feel respected, valued, trusted, challenged, and recognized for their contributions. Based on these sample criteria, how would your employees rate their experience in your workplace?

Buy American: Establishing Artificial Boundaries or Removing Unwanted Barriers?
"This idea of international free trade is a fallacy. We don't need free trade. We need smart trade . . . Even Canada is not truly a free trade partner. Their regulations require broadcasters use a specified percentage of Canadian-produced programming. That's protectionism, and to deny it is to be the patsy to foreign governments who think they can take advantage of the naivete of the American voter." Stephen Cottle, Hatford, CT (LinkedIn Q&A Response)

Supreme Court Ruling May Lead To More Unionization
The recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling that labor unions and corporations are permitted to spend as much as they want on their own campaign ads to support or oppose federal political candidates will have a significant impact on employers who face union interference with their workforce.

Renewing Limited Government: Limit Unions
We can, and must, limit the runaway growth of corrupt labor unions in America. Workers should have the choice to organize, but not be forced to be bled by high dues and high taxes which go to ruin the very companies that employ them. Keep the unions... but limit them to the good and noble function for which they're intended....
