Morehead Webinar Presents Method for Enabling Organizations to Lower Risk of Union Formation

Presenters discuss factors influencing unionization and specific issues organizations can address to reduce union vulnerability

Charlotte, N. C. (PRWEB) July 31, 2008

Morehead, the human capital research (http://moreheadassociates. com/events/) firm, will host a webinar titled “Predicting an Organization’s Vulnerability to Unionization.” During the hour-long webinar, Morehead will present their method that enables organizations to prioritize information and take key actions aimed at lowering the risk of union formation. The webinar will be broadcast on Thursday, Aug. 14 at 1 p. m. eastern time.

Morehead’s David Rowlee, Ph. D., vice president of Research and Development, and Patrick Corrigan, director of Business Development, will present the factors, such as job stagnation, substandard benefits and disrespectful superiors, that influence employees to engage in union activity. They will also discuss the specific issues, including communications that make employees feel heard, treating employees with respect and providing meaningful work that an organization can address to reduce the likelihood of a unionized workforce.

Morehead will illustrate the factors that drive union activity and the ability to predict the likelihood of union formation through an analysis of an academic and teaching hospital in the south and a faith-based community hospital in the northeast. Rowlee and Corrigan will also present Morehead’s approach in guiding the hospitals to maintain an engaged and productive workforce that is less likely to unionize.
