Bargaining can be a long and technical process, so it’s vital
that everyone can get involved, get informed, and fight for a
strong contract in their workplace. SEIU Local 1000’s Strike
School program provides critical information for members to get a
sense of their rights to collective action in the workplace, as
well as develop our understanding and respect for the power of a
strike.
In the class, we cover concepts like what ‘good faith bargaining’
is, what an ‘impasse’ in contract negotiations means, and how we
handle unfair labor practices during and after negotiations.
