Prepare for a Potential Labor Dispute

Get the level of preparedness that fits with your collective bargaining objectives and your tolerance for risk.

Your level of preparedness can make the difference between meeting your business objectives or settling for a more costly or unfavorable union contract. After helping thousands of companies, from small to Fortune 100’s, prepare and execute strike contingency plans, we’ve identified the following four (4) levels of risk of a potential labor dispute.

Identify your level of risk and take the next step to the appropriate preparedness level:

Your Situation
Collective Bargaining Agreement Coming Up. Labor Dispute or Walkout Unlikely. You won’t need many personnel, and the personnel you need are unskilled.

Your Challenge
You are tasked to identify and engage a vendor in advance of the Collective Bargaining process.

How we help
MADI coordinates calls with your team to talk through your potential staffing needs over the phone and put together a basic strike staffing plan. There is no cost to this option.

What you get
You completed planning due diligence knowing you have a reliable "go to" labor dispute vendor should the need arise.

Expected Time to Deploy workforce
Reactive, based on availability.

Talk To Us Now

Your Situation
Usually 3 to 6 months before contract expiration. Although a labor dispute is unlikely, company policy mandates a formal planning process to reduce physical risk.

Your Challenge
Best practice dictates proper planning and development of a formal, up to date Business Continuity Plan.

How we help
MADI conducts an on-site analysis (operations and/or security) to gain an understanding of your operations under normal conditions, and identify gaps, vulnerabilities and potential threats that most likely would be exposed during a labor dispute.

What you get
A Physical Site and Security Analysis report that provides you with a higher level of readiness as MADI has met with your team, walked through your facility, and provided you with a detailed strike plan.

Included in the report is a recommendation of the optimized workforce and security, based upon staffing numbers determined during the visit.

Expected Time to Deploy workforce
1 to 2 Weeks

Talk To Us Now

Your Situation
Approximately 4 to 6 weeks before contract expiration, and if a large number of personnel would be required or if the personnel you may need are highly technical or in high-demand.

Your Challenge
There are serious and potentially contentious business issues to address in contract negotiations.

How we help
Initiating the optional readiness proposal included within our strike plan enables MADI to assemble and maintain, on a position-by-position basis, a standby team of fully-vetted personnel for your specific needs.

What you get
MADI recruits and develops a 2:1 stand-by replacement workforce and management team ready for deployment rapidly and efficiently.

Expected Time to Deploy workforce
1 to 3 Days

Talk To Us Now

Your Situation
1 week before contract expiration and if you are dealing with an Imminent strike, and/or negotiations not favorable to your company.

Your Challenge
Contract negotiations not going well and strongest company response required.

How we help
MADI pre-deploys, prior to a labor dispute, all or a portion of its Operations and/or security stand-by replacement workforce and management team.

What you get
With the advice from your Labor Counsel, MADI positions operations personnel and/or security officers either visibly at the facility, or keep them off-site in a hotel for a more rapid deployment.

Analysis Fee Per Site, Plus Expenses

Fast. Usually within two (2) to three (3) days

Readiness Fee is based on number and types of positions, minus cost of Business Continuity Plan.

High Labor Dispute Very Likely or Certain
