The manager of BP Petroleum Company limited is seeking police protection for the duration of a strike, called by the Trade Union, who are protesting for increases in emoluments for their members- employees of BP. The Police suggested that a mobile patrol would be adequate, but the HR manager of BP insisted on permanent police presence, because of pending lawlessness by strikers. The manager then offered to compensate the Police, if they agree on a permanent Police presence on site, during the strike period.The Police agreed to provide 10 officers at a rate of $500 per day, per officer, which they will maintain during the entire strike period.

STRIKE AVERTED JCSA, Gov’t reach last-minute pact even as NHT workers join picket line An 11th-hour understanding was reached on Friday between the Ministry of Finance and the Public Service and the O’Neil Grant-led Jamaica Civil Service Association (JCSA), averting a massive strike of thousands of disgruntled public sector workers planned for Monday. Finance Minister Dr Nigel Clarke suggested that a “misinterpretation” of the Government’s intent regarding negotiated benefits was behind the simmering frustration of civil servants, which threatened to upstage this week’s four-day-long industrial action within the public sector across the island. According to Clarke, the leadership of the JCSA felt strongly that the negotiated benefits that are proposed to be discontinued under the public sector compensation review should have been presented to them directly rather than through the Jamaica Confederation of Trade Unions. “The JCSA explained that the way they received the…

How do I respond to this in 100 words? The organization of unions is the result of management's actions and not the union itself. While union representatives may recruit members to join the union, unions form to protect workers from the actions of management. Unions are led by workers and help protect the shared interests of the workers (Greene, 2023). They can help improve working conditions, set limits on working hours, and help employees receive fair pay (Greene, 2023). Employees would not feel the need to join a union or help organize a union if the employer already offered decent working conditions. Fighting an employer alone can seem like a tremendous job and even discourage an employee from speaking out against any wrongdoing. In the early days of the workforce, employee discipline was extremely harsh, with discipline involving physical assault or public humiliation (Holley et al., 2017). This created a certain level of fear in employees throughout the years. However, when an…
A former Google worker sued the tech giant and the online staffing firm oDesk (now part of Upwork, a global freelancing platform) alleging that he and others were misclassified as independent contractors rather than Google employees. According to the suit, the employee was paid as an independent contractor through oDesk and assigned projects that were impossible for him to complete in the maximum 30 hours per week that he was authorized to bill. This forced him to work additional hours on his own time, without the benefit of overtime pay to which he was legally entitled to under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Google also provided the worker with a mobile phone, tablet, and laptop computer while he worked at Google offices in New York. Google further required that the worker use Google proprietary software and conform to the employee code of conduct in regards to absenteeism, blogging, and dress code. The worker complained about nonpayment of the additional work hours and attempted to…
