Strike Preparation Manual

In a paper titled "Who Wins in Strikes?" at least five groups of people are identified as being affected by labor union strikes: employers, their employees, union officials, and the customers and suppliers of the strike targets. Also, frequently the striking workers themselves end up as the biggeset losers in strikes.

Although union strikes have become less frequent in the U.S. in recent years, when they do occur they can be devastating for the struck employer, as well as customers, suppliers, local communities, and even the employees and their families. Employers are well advised to have a strike preparation plan in place to help ameliorate the effects of a union strike on their business operations. Thiat is the purpose of this Strike Preparation Manual.
