Answer 1

the possible positions concerning individual rights under collective bargaining agreements.

1)Unions and management should be free, within the range of reasonableness to resolve ambiguities in the collective agreement.

2)The individual's claim should be adjudicated by the same character of the tribunal as that used to settle disputes between the union and the employer.

3)Both the union and the employer should be parties to the proceedings for determining the individual claim.

4)The union ought not to be burdened with costs of arbitration unless the individual's claim is upheld.

5)Provision should be made for the special problems of disciplinary discharges.
