Bargaining Power in Labor Negotiations
Analyze how the level of competition among job applicants influences the negotiation dynamics between a single employer and potential employees. Contrast a scenario where a company is negotiating with the sole qualified candidate for a highly specialized position with a scenario where the same company is hiring for a general role with a large pool of equally qualified applicants. In your response, explain which party holds more bargaining power in each situation and predict the likely impact on the final wage agreement.
