Abstract

This chapter addresses public administration in the context of the government as an employer. In doing so, the relationship between a public employer and its employees is at issue. To understand public sector labor relations requires a basic understanding of legal principles that govern a public employer's rights and obligations to its employees. While this chapter does not, and cannot, address every aspect of labor management relations in the public sector, it provides an overview of the most important aspects of this relationship and how government can successfully function as an employer.
