CHRS's pioneering work in labor-management partnerships has been ongoing for more than fifteen years. Based on the book by Dr. Schuster, Union-Management Cooperation: Structure, Process and Impact, supported by the National Science Foundation, joint union-management partnerships seek to create competitive organizations through cooperative and jointly owned change processes which improve organizational performance, enhance quality and safety, and improve the quality of the working lives of all employees.
