  • Title: Personnel practices can help discourage unionization.
    Author: Hoffman HL.
    Journal: Healthc Financ Manage; 1989 Sep; 43(9):48, 50, 52 passim. PubMed ID: 10294325.
    Abstract:
    Unionization presents a potential source of cost escalation for hospitals, particularly involving health benefits. The best way to minimize chances that staff members will opt for union representation is to develop personnel practices that demonstrate management's commitment to treating employees fairly, such as providing competitive salaries and benefits, scheduling regular meetings to address worker questions, and developing detailed policy handbooks.
