Collective Bargaining

Our negotiators are recognised experts in collective bargaining and are leading employment relations strategists.

Collective bargaining is the negotiation process between unions and employers about the terms and conditions of collective employment agreements.

Effective collective bargaining can significantly improve productivity in the workplace by ensuring negotiations are efficient, strategic planning is implemented, and employment relationships are protected throughout the process. 

We believe in interest-based bargaining centred around equitable settlements that satisfy the interests of both parties, maintain workplace relationships, and maximise workforce engagement. Our approach is grounded in our experience that what helps relationships, helps businesses.

Our collective bargaining experience includes:

  • Public Sector
  • Education
  • Aviation
  • Logistics
  • Transport
  • Retail
  • Manufacturing
  • Healthcare
  • Aged Care.

Our experienced bargaining team can assist with the entire collective bargaining process, including drafting collective employment agreements that consider the details that matter. 

Our team can also facilitate private mediation to help progress the bargaining process in the event that it becomes stalled.
