This is the third of six journal entries you will write in this course. You will self-select four of your best entries for submission and grading to your Open Learning Faculty Member. Each submitted journal entry is worth 4% of your final grade.

Topic: In union-management relations and, more specifically in collective bargaining, we talk about the importance of trust and having a good working relationship. In your journal, write down your thoughts on how good working relationships could be achieved. What happens when there is a lack of trust in the relationship? Given what you have learned about unionized environments, what kinds of things might occur when one or both sides are not honest and forthright.

You are encouraged to do some additional research on how trust can be developed in a unionized work environment. Tip: Progressive HR practices matter.

We recommend that you keep your journal entry between 450 words.
