   Strategic Labor And Human Resources

   Feb 1999 — Present

   Strategic Labor & Human Resources is recognized for its expertise in labor relations, compensation, benefits & international HR. Mr. Chiaravalli\'s experience as a labor lawyer, labor expert and businessman is especially unique having worked for big labor, big business and government.He has the perspective and depth of industry contacts to recognize and counsel his clients on issues, prior to them becoming a problem.We develop comprehensive labor strategies that reduce or eliminate labor strife and produce bottom line improvements. Unlike other business advisors, Strategic Labor & Human Resources begins with the common interest of all parties involved in the dispute/negotiation, rather than the more typical, opposing sides of an issue. When the need to negotiate, mediate, or arbitrate arises, we focus on the core issues, identify the weakest links, and counsel our clients toward the biggest positive solution while enhancing the commitment and competence of the people in our organizations. Whether it is planning and negotiating a plant closing in the worst of times or addressing the growth challenges in the best of times, we deliver outstanding outcomes.Where disputes do arise we find solutions that provide favorable outcomes without costly litigation, ultimately contributing to a cohesive solution and the bottom line.
