Employee Free Choice Act

This pending legislation will put a strain on HR professionals who have been free and clear of union activity. The pending legislation that President Obama has, during the campaign trail, endorsed will certainly focus the HR involvement in the business if it is not there already.

HR will have to operate differently and CEOs will be forced to get the much needed help from human resources. So the question is, are the HR departments prepared for this and have they been trained or retrained to deal with this?

What is your take on this and for as full picture, please read the lead article in Workforce Management's January issue. Let me know your thoughts at wgstevens2@gmail.com .
