What are the factors affecting the industrial relations strategy?
Proper industrial relations help you to run your company in an efficient manner. You can maintain morale among your employees with the right kind of industrial relations. Industrial relations are more of an art than a science, balancing a number of factors to get the right relationship between capital and labor. Knowing the factors affecting industrial relations will help you to properly calibrate this relationship. Two-way communication between labor and capital allows workers to stay fully informed of workplace expectations as well as changes that affect them. Management becomes aware of problems as they arise, rather than learning about things after they have reached the point of crisis. Unions can affect industrial relations in a number of complex ways. When a union comes to a workplace, individuals no longer bargain on their own. Rather, they are represented collectively by a third party. This can make employees feel like they have more of a voice. It can also provide a means to collectively arbitrate labor disputes. Wages and benefits are perhaps the most obvious factor affecting industrial relations. While wages and benefits don't make industrial relations run smoother all by themselves, they can help employees to feel more appreciated.
