Collective Bargaining

Labor unions disputes require special legal expertise including expertise in the Labor Union Act. Any mishandling of labor union issues will result in (i) an accusation of unfair labor practices by the labor union against the company, such as the company’s refusal to hold collective bargaining, the company’s control over or interference with the formation or management of a labor union by workers or the company’s detrimental treatment of workers, or (ii) the labor union’s petition to the labor relations commission.
