EXPERIENCE IN PUBLIC SECTOR COLLECTIVE BARGAINING IN CUYAHOGA COUNTY, OHIO

Abstract

The author surveyed sixty Cuyahoga County, Ohio, local governments, finding twenty-eight that had engaged in collective bargaining under a 1984 statute. Police and firefighters were most highly unionized, with union competition strong among policy and nonexistent among fire personnel. Firefighters used dispute resolution procedures most frequently. Collective bargaining activity in this study was found to be traditional and similar to public sector bargaining elsewhere in the nation.
