Practice question
A personnel assistant routinely helps the manager formulate bargaining positions and prepares confidential grievance strategy as a necessary part of her duties. A different employee knows only confidential product specifications. Both are called confidential staff. Which is best?
- Both must be excluded solely because of the label
- Neither can ever be excluded
- Product secrecy is always more decisive than labor-relations strategy
- Every employee in the same company has identical eligibility
- The personnel assistant’s actual labor-relations role may satisfy the confidential exclusion; product secrecy alone does not establish it for the other employee
