I need to write a short paper on the following:

Almost all contract negotiations pivot on, and most grievances thus ultimately deal with, four major areas: wages and issues that can be directly related to wages, employee benefits, institutional issues, and administrative clauses. Research the four areas, particularly wages, and write a 4-6 page paper in the format described below.

In your paper, address the following:

•  Provide a brief overview of the four major areas: wages and wage-related issues, employee benefits, institutional issues, and administrative clauses.
•  Recommend a method or standard that should be utilized to determine employee wages in order to prevent wage-related grievances from unions. Give reasons for your recommendation.

º  Describe the method you recommend.
º  Explain how your recommended method would prevent wage-related grievances.

Format

Each short paper must be in APA (6th ed.) format, 12-point font, and double-spaced. The paper should follow this format:

•  Title page-short description of the subject of the paper
•  Abstract-a concise executive summary of 50 to 100 words
•  Introduction-statement of the purpose of the paper and a strong thesis that summarizes the key point or finding of your paper
•  Theoretical foundation-presentation of theoretical concepts that serve as the foundation of the paper including a review of the sources used
•  Discussion-description of the application of the theory and relevant implications including pros and cons, and unresolved issues
•  Conclusion-summary of thesis and findings
•  Reference page (2-3 sources other than the textbook)
