Product Details

The Marriott Corporation, family owned and run, has always had a nonunion stance. Its "welfare-to-work" programs have angered unions but have also created a more reliable low-wage workforce. These cases (see also the A case, UVA-E-0129) deal with the company's efforts to reduce turnover in its low-wage positions (thus saving money), help those on welfare find employment, and maintain its traditionally high standards of operation.
