RECOGNITION AND DESCRIPTION OF BARGAINING UNIT Clause Samples
The "Recognition and Description of Bargaining Unit" clause formally defines which group of employees is represented by a union for the purposes of collective bargaining. It typically specifies the job classifications, departments, or locations included in the bargaining unit, and may also clarify which employees are excluded, such as supervisors or temporary staff. This clause ensures both the employer and the union have a clear, mutual understanding of who is covered by the collective agreement, thereby preventing disputes over representation and ensuring the proper application of negotiated terms.
