Summary
Study of trade union attitudes to workers participation in quality of working life programmes in the context of collective bargaining in the USA - cites case studies to illustrate the relationship between the role of trade unions and the results of various joint consultation, management board and quality circle schemes; notes union fears that problem solving rather than conflictual approaches might weaken negotiation practices.
