Excerpt from Annual Report of the State Board of Conciliation and Arbitration: For Te Year Ending December 31, 1902To the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled.In so far as statements of cases can do, the following reports summarize the work of the Board during the past year. A large amount of the office work of the Board - such as meeting parties to controversies or threatened outbreaks, advising as to the best course of action and endeavoring to soften the feelings of those who think themselves aggrieved - it is impossible to commit to type.In general, the work may be classified under three heads, which relate: -First, to the formation of trade agreements or collective bargaining, Second, to arbitration cases, where points in dispute are left to the decision of the Board, andThird, to conciliation cases, in which, by mediation between the parties to a controversy threatened or existing, the Board endeavors to bring them together on some common ground.It is the desire of the Board to foster the manifest tendency of employers and employees to enter into collective bargaining relating to wages, hours and conditions of work. There is ample opportunity at present to suggest the advantage of trade agreements over the harsher and more cruel methods of strikes and lockouts.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
