The emphasis is on how to represent information in table form and to draw your own conclusions from the data presented.
Discuss (in your own words): how UPS Freight & BF Goodrich contract sections on employee grievance handling differ and are the same (paying close attention to the definition of grievance; grievance processing steps, mediation and/or arbitration and other important topics in the clause). Compare and contrast their employee discipline/discharge clauses.
Summarize by bringing in your module readings and/or library research to discuss the impact grievance handling might have on employee relations.
Include at least 3 additional sources to the included to help strengthen discussion.
Half of your paper should be a table or tables, and half a discussion of your conclusions drawn from the tables you present
