The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has certified a union to be the bargaining agent for a hospital. A nurse working in the hospital has a grievance and says to the nurse manager, "Wait until the union gets involved

" Which response by the manager is appropriate? 1. "NLRB certification does not mean a union will develop."
2. "A union will not get involved in this situation."
3. "The NLRB is not concerned with your grievance."
4. "The grievance will be resolved with or without the NLRB."

Rationale 1: Certification by the NLRB of a union to be the bargaining agent does not automatically mean employees have a contract.
Rationale 2: The manager has no way of knowing if this grievance will be settled by the time the union is in place.
Rationale 3: Unions do get involved in grievances.
Rationale 4: There is no guarantee that this grievance will be resolved.
