Discuss HRCI PHR Exam Topic 3 Question 21

As an HR Professional, you must be familiar with collective bargaining agreements and the process that rights are given, contracts, and union and management cooperation. With this in mind, what is a rights arbitration?

AIt is a lawsuit between the collective management and the collective union.

BIt is a formal hearing between the management and the union, to resolve grievances during the construction of a contract.

CIt is a formal hearing between management and union members to resolve grievances during the administration of a contract.

DIt is a not a lawsuit, but a resolution of laws and their impact on existing contracts.

Suggested Answer: C

Rights arbitration is like a hearing, but it doesn't take place in the court of law. Rights arbitration aims to resolve grievances between union members and management, that have happened during the administration of a contract.

Answer option B is incorrect. Note that this answer is close, but it defines rights arbitration as something that occurs during the construction of the contract, not during the actual administration of the contract.

Answer option A is incorrect. Rights arbitration is not a lawsuit.

Answer option D is incorrect. Rights arbitration is not an interpretation of laws and their affect on existing contracts.

Yeah, I think it's about resolving issues after the contract is in place.

Not a lawsuit? That's interesting, I always thought it was!

Wait, isn't it more about grievances than just laws?

Ronny 11 months ago

I agree, option C sounds right to me!

It's definitely a formal hearing, usually during contract administration.

I thought rights arbitration was more about resolving disputes rather than being a lawsuit, but I'm not clear on the specifics.

I feel like option C sounds right since it mentions grievances during the administration of a contract, which is what we discussed in class.

I remember studying that rights arbitration is a formal process, but I can't recall if it specifically involves grievances during the contract's administration or construction.

I think rights arbitration has something to do with resolving issues that come up after a contract is already in place, but I'm not entirely sure.

I'm a little confused by this question. I know the SAM file is important for Windows security, but I'm not sure about the exact file path. I'll have to make an educated guess and hope for the best.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know Azure Backup can handle SQL Server backups, but I'm not sure if it provides the level of granularity needed to restore specific databases. Maybe I should look into the other options as well.

Okay, I've got this. A contingency plan is a specific plan for dealing with unexpected situations or problems. I'm confident I can get this right.

Okay, let me think this through. Risk avoidance is not part of the ISO 31000 process, so that rules out options B and C. I'm leaning towards A, since setting the context and risk treatment are both core steps in the risk management framework.

I'm a bit confused about the Filters. I can't remember if it's just about the Forged Email Detection dictionary or if there's something else we need to configure too.
