摘要

The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically changed employment across sectors in 2020.This Viewpoint essay examines public sector labor relations during the pandemic and describes the impact bargaining process that is used to protect public employees.The authors draw on their own experience with impact bargaining negotiations and the public labor relations,conflict management,and civil service reform literatures to develop recommendations for public union labor leaders during times of crisis.They suggest that public unions have an important role in crisis management but must act strategically to develop good working relationships with leadership and successfully negotiate employee protections in uncertain times.
