Labor and employee relations - the law and best practice for maintaining constructive relations
Who should attend
This Labor and employee relations course is designed for experienced HR professionals and in-house lawyers (working in unionised environments in the private or public sectors) who may not have worked with unions recently or who have not had responsibility for ER.
Synopsis
Many senior managers lack experience of working with unions and employee representatives. This course is designed to address this need in a virtual format, providing a chance to learn from specialist labour lawyers with extensive practical experience of dealing with industrial relations issues both in the public and private sector.
We cover the labour law framework and explain how it really works in practice, including the management of collective workplace information and consultation. We also cover current union campaigns, industrial action and tactics used.
