Compensation case study
The police are charged with maintaining law and order. They are also charged with protecting the citizen's life and property, and they are on call at all hours. The police need good wages commensurate with their responsibilities if they are to perform their duties as expected, which will ensure that they are able to deliver on their sworn duties. The arbitration of wage disputes ensures that the city council and the police association will have the opportunity to present their cases, and a neutral party gauges them based on their merits. The arbitrator will then offer recommendations to both parties. The arbitration panel will make considerations based on the arguments presented by both parties in an attempt to solve the dispute (Horton, 2011).
Justification for a pay increase
Some of the stronger arguments for justifying a pay increase include the proximity of the town to the Mexican border. This means that the town is prone to having many illegal immigrants, which would require the Tucson police intervention. Compared to the regional salary data it is evident that the Tucson police is underpaid. Tucson police are five percent below average according to the Arizona public safety survey. Some of the weakest arguments include that the city council has the ability to pay the raise (Reeves, 2006). Arguing that the city council has the capability...

Past negotiations have indicated that the city council could pay a salary increase for the police officers. Basing their argument based on the past activities could be both a strong and a weak argument.

Reasons for not granting the pay increase across the board
The Tucson police are not unhappy with their current salaries. The few police officers who resign from their positions show proof of this. Retirement is the main cause of turnover in the Tucson police. This indicates that the police are not leaving their jobs for other better paying jobs. The city council is able to attract and retain police officers. The council has proof that they are able to attract applicants from out of state and other Arizona cities. This is a demonstration that the salaries offered by the council are competitive and attractive. Currently, the Tucson budget cannot handle an across the board pay increase for the police. This is because the increase would have a negative effect on the advances made by the city, which has the potential to increase the crime rate in the city. The least persuasive arguments are justifying the expensive construction and…
