The five $(5)$ Environmental Factors in Chapter $3$

Economic Environment$$refers to the economy of the nation and the competitive position of an organization in a particular industry. For example, if there is an increase in inflation or new competitors in an industry, the union and the employer will be affected when considering pay rates for bargaining unit members.

Technological Environment$$refers to developments in knowledge that lead to new products and services that could influence, for example, methods of production. Technological developments can also affect union and employer objectives in a number of areas, including job security, training and health and safety.

Social Environment$$refers to the values and beliefs of Canadians relating to work, unions and employers. These values and beliefs may make communities more or less inclined to join or support unions. This is seen in variations in union density across provincial jurisdictions in Canada.

Political Environment$$refers to the Canadian political system and the effect it has on labour relations. The political system directly affects the legislation that regulates unions and employers. In November $2017,$ the Ontario government passed back$-$to$-$work legislation ending a five$-$week strike by community college faculty, librarians and counsellors. Public pressure on the Liberal government to end the strike, affecting some $500,000$ students, contributed to this action.
