Some individuals believe that the consensual relationship agreement should be signed by every employee and would be effective for the organizational and employees’ performance, while on the other hand some are under the impression that the relationship of employees are their personal matter and should not be addressed in the workplace. This case study has focused over numerous bullets including but not limited to the use of consensual relationship agreement, creating a counter argument against the use of CRAs in an existing organization, discussing the ethical principles involved in Consensual Relationship Agreements in the United States, and other options that would address the workplace romance.

This could possible arise from the contract that was signed by Wayne’s son. However, there are several reasons why this action may not be found in favor of Marshall. The first argument that Wayne would have in regards to this contract; would be the capacity to bind Wayne under this contract. There is no mention that the son is acting as an agent of the company and therefore would not be authorized to sign a contract for the company. In Gebhard v. Garnier (1876) it was found that a court cannot bind a person to a contract, if that contract was signed by a person with no authority to do so.
The three major FoR in employment relations are; the systems approach, the social action approach and the conflict approach.

Human Resource Paper on Contract Negotiations In the changing world of business negotiations has become a part of everyday business. Negotiations can stem from negotiating for a raise or if a HR department is negotiating for a new contract with a union for all the employees. In my twelve years at AT&T as both a manager and a union steward, I have had the experience of viewing the negotiation process from both sides of the coin. As a manager, I have seen the HR department prepare for negotiations and prepare the company for a strike contingency if the contract negotiations stalled and the union went on strike. As a union steward, I have witnessed the union prepare for the union members for strike and stall the negotiations in hopes for favorable actions by the company.
The order of these questions are crucial. If an executive doesn’t take these questions seriously, the organization will suffer. The primary inquiry is, “what needs to be done?” (Drucker) There’s almost always more than one answer to this question. However, an effective executive prioritize the tasks in order of importance. Once a task has been selected another question is posed; “is this the correct choice for the organization?” (Drucker) This questions pertains to the organization, not the owners, shareholders, or employees.
