EFCA Negotiation Manager - HR Team

Reduce attorney costs by using our Labor Relation Specialists to lead your virtual EFCA / Card Check HR Team

Employee Free Choice Act - EFCA, also known as card check, has the potential to affect Michigan business operations more than any stimulus plan. EFCA provisions for federal mediation after only 90 days and interest arbitration after another 30 days severely limit, and might even neutralize many of the strategies Michigan employers have used in the past. EFCA will virtually guarantee the establishment of a target companies' first contract; and organizations who feel they potentially are targets need to start preparing their strategies now. The Everest EFCA / card check training and coaching value proposition is to support, lead and implement any or all of the following strategies and tactics:

• Create a campaign to win hearts and minds of employees via:
  
  • Employee satisfaction surveys
  • Executive communication best practices
  • Supervisor / Manager training
• Use our Associates' decades of labor relations experience to:
  • Communicate how old union avoidance practices are null and void with the EFCA
  • Act as a project team leader to guide your Human Resource Associates in how to gather the right information, benchmarks, statistics, etc. to support your negotiation case
  • Assist the bargaining team with strategies and tactics
  • Be present at the bargaining table
  • Partner with your labor attorneys and in-house labor specialists in a collaborative team effort
• Support during the implementation of the first contract with Supervisor / Manager training:
  • Relationship with unionized workers
  • Compare pre and post contract work rules and expectations
  • Grievance procedures
  
  We have worked on over a dozen national and local union bargaining agreements and would welcome an initial telephone conversation to see how we might be able to provide that strategy piece you are missing. Give us a call at 734-455-4151.
