Workplace Challenges Facing Employers and Workers Post Covid-19 Should Encourage Interest Based Barg
Distributive Bargaining v Interest-based Bargaining Power has a huge influence over the outcome of a negotiation. Distributive bargaining heavily relies on power to achieve the best result, which usually involves one party ‘losing’.

Significant Workplace Issues to be Addressed by Businesses in Transitioning to the "New Normal"
