A survey of employee unionism in the United States Government with comparisons with employee unionism in the central governments of selected english speaking countries

The purpose of this study is to review employee unionism and employee-management relations as they exist in the Federal public service of the United States. Attention is given to the historical development of employee organizations with the record of the Government as an employer as a background. The work of the Kennedy Task Force on Employee-Management Relations in the Federal Service is reviewed together with progress in employee-management relations since Executive Order 10988 was issued implementing the Task Force's recommendations. Employee-management relations in the central governments of Great Britain, Australia, and Canada are discussed to provide a comparative framework within which the United States' experience may be viewed and considered.
