Hello Sid,
The Management is considered as one committee/body, whatever decision or rule is taken is unanimous hence Management is followed by " HAS" ; grammatically speaking it is taken as singular.
Hope this explanation will suffice your requirement.

My dear Management is a collective noun. We use singular form of verb with collective noun like india, team, committee, Govt etc. You can also refer to grammar book for having knowledge about collective noun.
