In this textbook designed for courses on aviation labor relations,
the authors-experts with many years of experience in these
sectors-examine and evaluate the labor process for all aspects of
the aviation and aerospace industries, including aerospace
manufacturing, airlines, general aviation, federal and state
administrative agencies, and public airports.
Divided into three parts-Public Policy and Labor Law; Principles,
Practices and Procedures in Collective Bargaining and Dispute
Resolution; and the Changing Labor Relations Environment-the book
provides an overview of the industries and the development of US
labor law and policy, then explores the statutory, regulatory, and
case laws applicable to each industry segment before concluding
with an examination of current and developing issues and trends.
The authors present the evolution of aviation and aerospace labor
laws, going as far back as the early nineteenth century to lay the
historical foundation, and cover the development and main features
of the principal statutes governing labor relations in the United
States today, the Railway Labor Act, the National Labor Relations
Act, and the Civil Service Reform Act. They also investigate the
growth of the industries and their impact on labor relations, as
well as the current issues and challenges facing management and
labor in each segment of this dynamic, sometimes volatile, business
and their implications for collective bargaining. Twenty case
studies not only illuminate practical applications of such
fundamental concepts as unfair labor practices and unions' duty of
fair representation but also enliven the subject, preparing the
reader to use the concepts in real-world decision making.
A study guide with review questions, online assignments,
supplemental readings, and exercises is available for students. For
those teachers using the textbook in their courses, there is an
instructor's manual with additional resources for developing
courses in the classroom, online, or by blended learning, as well
as a variety of assignments and materials to enhance and vary the
mock negotiation exercise.
