An ABC approach to handling a strike
- 2002
The paper details the progress of a short strike that befell a maquiladora electronics plant in Mexico, as well as the background which led to a small incident triggering a potentially serious situation. The article employs an academic yet readable style, using observation from protagonists to flesh out the narrative. The incidents it describes offer a practical guide to foreign firms on how to handle worker relations, yet offers the caveat that "local" managers may not always have empathy with the workforce. Its thrust is primarily of interest to industry and labor relations experts, rather than the academic researcher
