Module 4 – SLP
LABOR LAW AND UNIONIZATION
In this SLP assignment, you will prepare an essay based on a scenario.
Imagine that you are working in an HRM department of a unionized facility.
This is your second job in HRM and your first in a union environment.
There was a newly filed grievance in your mailbox. It concerned
yesterday’s discharge of an employee (George M.).
As you get coffee from the empty break room you see a document titled
“Using the Seven Tests” laying on the table. Someone left it there. You
pick it up, stick it in your binder, and return to your office to look at the
grievance form, the labor contract, and the “Using the Seven Tests” article.
The labor contract indicates that employees may not be discharged unless
there is just cause. It will fall to the company to demonstrate that there was
“just cause” to discharge George M.
The paper you found on the break room table was “Using the Seven
Tests,” from https://essays.homeworkacetutors.com/write-my-essay/ueunion.org/stwd_jstcause.html
George M.’s situation was documented as follows:
George M. operated a machine in Building A. He usually was an average
worker, but working the past 4 weeks on that machine in Building A he had

made lots of mistakes on which products to accept and put in the box and
which to reject. The Plant Superintendent came into work in the middle of
the night because the supervisor called him. The supervisor checked
George M.’s boxes and 6 out of 8 had faulty parts inside. The
Superintendent terminated George M.’s employment and walked him out
the door.
In your paper you should discuss the seven tests and how they relate
to this situation. Is there more information that you will need to
gather?
What will you do from here? Discuss.
Would you be concerned about the “Seven Tests” if you were working in a
union-free environment? Why? Is “discipline/termination for just cause
limited to union-settings? Explain.
Bringing in background materials, library research, and/or other research
will help strengthen your response.
Turn in this paper by the module due date. Paper length: 2-3 pages, not
counting the cover and reference pages.
