SUPERVISOR'S GUIDE TO UNION AVOIDANCE

SYNOPSIS

The last thing a supervisor needs is a union – unless they want another boss telling them what to do. Studies have shown that supervisors are the most important members of the management team when it comes to maintaining management-represented status because, to many employees, the first-line supervisor is the company. The supervisors therefore could be the decisive key in defeating the Union ’s organizing efforts. After all, they’re right there where the rubber meets the road – dealing with your employees on a day-today, minute-by-minute basis. It’s there, on the supervisor's turf, that union organizing campaigns are won or lost.

We've helped keep companies union free since 1965.  So, you can hire a labor attorney or buy anti-union videos and spend upwards of tens of thousands of dollars for the same detailed union-fighting information and advise contained in this low-cost eBook (which costs far less than a labor attorney's one-hour bill).

PARTIAL PREVIEW

"Supervisors often are reluctant to talk about unionization for fear it may encourage employees to think about unions. This failure to communicate makes the union organizer’s job much easier. Employees are much more willing to sign cards if they hear only one side of the story; the union’s side.

"You as a Supervisor have both the legal right and responsibility to let your employees know where you stand on the question of unions. Handled in a clear, business-like manner, these discussions are highly effective in assuring that union authorization cards are not signed at your facility. You need to learn how to legally and effectively communicate your company’s viewpoint and also to authoritatively respond to union strategies. This eBook will help you do those things plus the other union-avoidance steps.  

"If you have the desire, you can win the minds of the people – within your span of influence and become a better salesperson than the union. When you achieve that ability, the union will simply walk away. It is up to you!"
