  3. Case Study
    In one public sector undertaking with chequered past, a line manager was appointed as a chief of personnel. Within a year after taking up the assignment, he had to sign a wage agreement with the workers union. The union at that time was dominated by non-technical staff. The union's charter of demands favored the interest of its dominant member groups. It asked for a significant revision in the gardeners pay but was not equally vocal in pressing for the increases in the pay scales of workers in certain technical grades. The management conceded these demands because the union cooperated with them in keeping the burden of the pay revision well within the guidelines of Bureau of Public Enterprises.
    Once the agreement was signed and communicated to employees by the management, there was commotion among the technical staff. They walked out of the union, formed a separate technical staff union and marched round the company premises holding placards, which read, “ Here, grass cutters get more than gas cutters!". In that engineering assembly unit, till the pay revision occurred, welding was a highly rated job. But not any longer. Now gardeners get more than welders.
    a) What happens if grass cutters get more than gas cutters?
    b) Evaluate the pros and cons of the approach of both the management and the union in this incident.
