Landmark said: If you want workers with a vested interest in productivity then they should share profits and decision making.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ It is in just about every union template drafted even before negoations begin that unions shall not make management decisions. Unions shall not infringe on management rights. No company in their right mind would ever agree to let their employees and unions make management decisions. I can just see a union agreeing to let a company tell them how to run their union. Where in the name of God do you people come up with these ideas?
If I were to agree with you. Then we would both be wrong. As of Apr 5, 2015 10:26 pm I have 880 posts. Used to have over 1,000

"Could you please show where a union has increased profit for a company on a product or an increase in profits for the companty in the long run. I would be interested in these facts of yours.
" Where did I say it did. |

It helps when everyone understands everyone's objectives in an operation. The management, the workers and the customers.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Don't worry JoeJoe, about 487.3 pages back I left a post citing my personal experience with a union, how bad that particular union was, and how that union was doing a disservice to the community.........As I expected it went largely ignored.

"Unions protecting non-productive employees"
That is not a productivity issue. And there is incompetance at both the worker and management side. Productivity has to do with the ratio of production vs costs to produce. |

"Yes .... employees are a cost, and when they cost more than they produce they are unproductive. Do you have a point to make??
" My point is that you don't seem to know anything about business. You don't seem to understand what the term "productivity" refers to. It is like that Seinfeld when Kramer decides to go to work without being hired and his manager says to him "Its as if you have had no business training at all". When I read your posts, I get the same feeling. Most productivity gains happen via technology more than anything else. |

BTW, manufacturing productivity has doubled over the last 20 years. Of course that means a lot of people are getting laid off. Higher productivity = more layoffs = higher unemployment.
So I guess the argument that the unions are decreasing productivity is just not true. |

Everyone here knows the difference between a productive employee and a non-productive employee ... except maybe you. If you can't grasp the concept, then that is your problem - you continue to waste more and more of our time with this utter nonsense. Do you have anything of value to add to the conversation, or is your plan to continue to attack me??
Here is a clue for you ... I am speaking in English: pro·duc·tive (pr-dktv, pr-) adj. 1. Producing or capable of producing. 2. Producing abundantly; fertile. See Synonyms at fertile. 3. Yielding favorable or useful results; constructive. 4. Economics Of or involved in the creation of goods and services to produce wealth or value. 5. Effective in achieving specified results; originative: policies productive of much harm. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/productive -JoeJoe

We are talking about productivity not the word productive. Why is THAT so hard for you to understand?
How do you explain that productivity has doubled over the last 20 years in manufacturing? Please tell me how you are measuring productivity? how are you measuring the productivity of management? I'm sorry you can't grasp the concept, but I tried to tell you earlier, you don't have the experience to understand what is being said when we talk about productivity. |

Here is the point: your claim is that unions have decreased manufacturing productivity. That is clearly not the case as productivity has doubled. so how can you make the case that productivity is down when in fact it is UP.
