Collective bargaining (view source)
Revision as of 20:09, February 25, 2011

'''Collective bargaining''' is the negotiations between an [[employer]] and a group of [[employee]]s that determine the conditions of employment. Employees negotiate for better [[wages]] and working conditions, while employers try to keep costs down to increase profit. When negotiations fail it is often due to neither side agreeing to make compromises asked by the other, and employees may go on [[strike]] and refuse to work. This tactic is designed to put pressure on an employer as it negatively affects [[profits]]. Going on strike may also be a hardship for workers who cannot afford to live without pay.
