Abstract
Management prerogatives or rights have remained contentious for many years now. Although gradually, management is beginning to realise the need to cede some territory to its employees, many employers feel this patriarchal obligation to decision making with little or no considerations of the views, interests and needs of employees. While such perceptions may point to cave-men era, the modem business environment has continued to side-line employees and their trade union representatives. Using a qualitative method with the collection and review of secondary data, this study has attempted an understanding of management prerogatives in comparison with collective bargaining. The study critiques the penchant for an exclusive management rights posture and builds arguments in favour of workplace democracy as the ideal for modem businesses.
