March 29, 2022: Negotiation of Collective Bargaining Agreements: The Must-Do Bargaining Checklist Under the New Board Rules

Unions are looking to make gains for their members in all industries. In the COVID-19 recovery, many business sectors are struggling with strained supply chains, a shortage of qualified staff and broad inflationary pressures, all of which increase union negotiating leverage. Buoyed by support from a labor-friendly federal administration, union negotiators want to lock in historic contract gains. This session will examine the new “checklist” for companies preparing to negotiate a union contract in this new era. Together we will discuss tactics that have proven effective under new NLRB regulations, traps for the unwary and the proposals that companies should keep on the table despite union opposition.

Should you have any questions or prefer to register by email, please contact Emily Hillman at MasterClass@bakerlaw.com.

We look forward to having you join us for this premier event.
