The management rights clause serves the purpose of identifying who is in charge of the workplace. This position entails the supervision of staff, implementing policies, assigning tasks, and controlling operations. Also, the clause ensures that authority is applied in decision-making processes. The reserved rights theory suggests that the management can exercise all right, excluding those it shares with the union (Carrell and Heavrin, 2013). Under this concept, the administration is prohibited from reviewing the agreements to establish its rights. Instead, it must assess the contract to understand the privileges conceded to the labor union. I agree with this theory since the association needs to gain more rights for the negotiation.
