    Employee relations are primarily about how management and staff function together and what can be done to make that work. This can be basically argued with two view points Unitary view is management and employees share the same concerns and it is therefore in both their interests to corporate (Walton, 1985) & the pluralist view is where interests of employees will not necessarily coincide their employers. Good article about the use of methods to develop employee relations.
