Collective Bargaining

This volume brings together papers on a variety of collective bargaining issues around the central theme of the survival and direction of the collective bargaining process. At the core are papers presented at the anniversary conference of the Industrial Research Unit and Labor Relations Council of the Wharton School.

The list of distinguished contributors to this volume is led by Secretary of Labor James D. Hodgson and Chairman William Brown III of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Included are major discussions of NLRB and NRAB regulation and a detailed proposal for a United States Labor Court. Collective bargaining issues in the transportation and construction industries, equal employment opportunity enforcement, welfare and strikes, pensions, and occupational safety and health provide the focus for a variety of presentations from varying points of view.

A final section on the New Economic Policy contains a timely analysis for businesses by Pay Board Member Virgil B. Day.
