Management's Unilateral Implementation Of Drug Testing Programs: Are The Unions Left Holding The Jar, Royce Robert Remington
Cleveland State Law Review
This Note demonstrates that organized labor's effectiveness in negotiation is imperative to the adequate protection of its members from invasive drug testing procedures. Negotiation must be achieved by asserting that drug testing is a mandatory subject of bargaining for the reasons set forth in section III. The best results in negotiation will be evidenced where the union representative is aware of both the technical and procedural shortcomings of drug testing, as well as, the inequities of the collective bargaining agreement in question. For these reasons, this Note will highlight those areas which the unions must address in negotiation in order …

Is it reasonable that the employer be liable for the misconduct of a person whose selection and/or control has been taken out of his …

Disposition Of Local's Funds Upon Disaffiliation, Joseph T. Svete
Cleveland State Law Review
Disposition of funds upon a local's disaffiliation from the international union has been one of the most difficult problems for the courts to overcome in the field of Labor Law.

This resulted in the development of six distinct doctrines: "implied condition" or "frustration of purpose," "local autonomy," "trust fund," "unclean hands," "certification" and "breach of …
