Abstract

From the wealth of data which might be gathered on any particular subject, every social investigation must specify what material will be used and for what purpose it will be used. Any subject can be approached from a variety of different viewpoints, and, depending on the viewpoint taken, certain aspects will be brought into the fore and others only slightly treated or ignored. The subject of this study is white-collar unionism. The aspect of white-collar unions with which it will be concerned is the collective bargaining contract. In any union-management relationship, the written agreement can be viewed as a formal document which "consists of a statement of restraints upon managerial prerogatives and limitations on the freedom of employer conduct and, by its terms, substitutes bilateral rules of conduct for unilateral employer action."
