Collective bargaining

Collective bargaining is the process of negotiation between trade unions (or labor unions, as they are called in the United States) and employers (represented by management) in respect of the terms and conditions of employment of employees, such as wages, hours of work, working conditions and grievance procedures, and about the rights and responsibilities of trade unions. The result of the negotiation is often referred to as a collective bargaining agreement.
