Labor_Economics_And_Labor_Relations

Labor Economics And Labor Relations Reaction Paper # 3 is based on the Article, “Labor Economics and Labor Relations”, by Loyd Reynolds, Stanley Masters, & Colletta Moser. This article offers a number of economical viewpoints, which although justifiable and scientifically proven, are still subject to debate. The first disagreeable point made by the author’s was their belief that an employee seeks an overall “employment package”, apart from wage, in determining their future employer. According to the article, the employee does not seek the highest wage available in their particular market. Instead, they search for the job that will offer the greatest net advantage such as fringe benefits and a pleasant working environment. This is not necessarily true because many potential employees, particularly those in the working class, don’t necessarily know the type of working environment in which they will be placed. They may be made aware of the benefits that is granted them but the “overall package” is not necessarily discussed during an interview process. A potential employee doesn’t have the feel for the job until he/she is ON the job. This may explain the employee turnover, which is allotted for in the labor market and fuels the competition labor, employee, market, wage, overall, employment, particularly, package, workers, until, jobs, job, article, working, whether, potential, particular, number, necessarily, material, made, he/she, employers, employer, employees, because, aware, worth, worker, wages, unionized, surplus, strategy, set, seek
