Unions and Management

  In your essay, address the three prompts below. Which party (union or management) would likely be in a stronger position to: bargain for an improved health care plan; organize a strike, walkout, or lockout; and create an unfair labor practice? Consider the three questions above within the context of the following two scenarios: high profits, an expanding market share, a healthy economy, and the cost of living rising less than 2% per year; and low profits, stagnant sales growth, uncertain economic conditions, and a projected 4% annual rise in cost of living.
