Imagine that a textile company is in the middle of negotiations with workers over wage rates, health care costs, and pension benefit plans. The workers feel that their current benefits are not aligned to their geographic region as the area has continued to grow. The cost of living has increased in the area, which has forced the company to demand more hours of producing textiles, but their wages have stayed the same.

With all of this in mind, what would you do and how would you respond to the workers requests so that everyone is satisfied? Short-term and Long-term?
