Job Enrichment Versus Traditional Issues at the Bargaining Table: What Union Members Want

Abstract

The article focuses on the reaction of union leaders toward job enrichment and motivation programs. The study presented attempts to examine the attitudes of union members to the use of job enrichment as a possible collective bargaining issue. According to the author, this study differs from earlier works in a number of ways, including its request that union members allocate the percentages of time that representatives will spend for traditional negotiation issues as well as issues surrounding job enrichment.
