Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In many other countries, it is common for national unions to bargain either with the government or with employer groups. This is not the case in the U.S where collective bargaining agreements are negotiated between management and labor unions. A tripartite bargaining system involving labor, management, and government is not currently a trend in the U.S., although it is sometimes used in other countries. A collective bargaining agreement is a legally binding contract in the U.S. and can be enforced through legal action. There are many labor organizations with a global focus, such as the International Labour Organization (ILO), which promotes international labor standards and employment rights.
