Answer to Question 1

Answer: There are times when management believes that it must exert extreme pressure to get the union to back away from a demand. The lockout and operating of the firm by placing management and nonunion workers in the striking workers' jobs are the primary means that management may use to overcome breakdowns in negotiations. Management may use the lockout to encourage unions to come back to the bargaining table. In a lockout, management keeps employees out of the workplace and runs the operation with management personnel and/or replacements. Unable to work, the employees do not get paid; the fear of a lockout may bring labor back to the bargaining table. A lockout is particularly effective when management is dealing with a weak union, when the union treasury is depleted, or when the business has excessive inventories. The lockout is also used to inform the union that management is serious regarding certain bargaining issues.
