14. CASE STUDY OF HOTEL
OBEROI.
The employees of the hotel used to get 65 days holiday per year,
but the management wanted to reduce it by 15 days due to
some managerial issues.
The workers readily and strongly opposed this proposal and
approached Maharashtra Samarth Kamgar Sanghatna to solve this issue.
MSKS understood the workers dilemma and went to the
management to reach an understanding via collective bargaining.

15. COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
PROCESS.
1. MSKS agreed to convince the workers but in return asked the management to pay
20 days extra salary in the month of December.
2. The management and workers debated over the issue.
The management found that they had the workers working for 15 extra days and
the workers found that they were being paid for 20 days just for 15 days of extra
work.
3. Both the parties reached an agreement.
Thus, MSKS was successful in creating a win-win situation via collective bargaining.
