The Work Reorganization Program

Technological Change

The introduction of new equipment, materials, and changes in work processes are a constant feature in today’s workplace. Technological change carries the potential to either improve the work environment or to severely undermine the interests of union members. Much depends on how the new technology is introduced and managed.

The Alliance is responding to the challenge of technological change by achieving protection in the collective agreement, holding employers accountable to abide by the contract language, and educating members about their rights and the potential consequences of tech change.
