Collective Bargaining consists of a process of negotiations between an Employer and a group of employees (often represented by a Trade Union) so as to determine the conditions of employment.
The result of collective bargaining procedures is a Collective Agreement/ Resolution.
A Collective Agreement is an agreement or contract between an employer and one or more registered unions. It is reached through the process of Collective Bargaining and sets forth the terms of employment for the employees who are members of represented union/s.
A Collective Agreement may include provisions regarding wages, leave/vacation time, working hours, working conditions, health insurance benefits and fringe benefits. The terms ‘Collective Agreement/s’ and ‘Resolution/s’ are used interchangeably.
Collective Agreements concluded in the PSCBC are referred to as Resolutions, e.g. the first Collective Agreement signed at the PSCBC is referred to as Resolution No. 1
of 1998.
All PSCBC Resolutions since 1998 can be found on the PSCBC this website.
Sector Council Resolutions can also be found on their respective websites.
