Enterprise Bargaining

Key learning outcomes:

• Understand the new bargaining environment post-Closing Loopholes legislation.
• Learn how bargaining and workplace culture are related and impact each other.
• Discover the difference between direct employee bargaining and union bargaining.
• Understand the risks to your business and how to minimise impact.

With significant reforms now in place following the Secure Jobs, Better Pay Act and Closing Loopholes Legislation, the enterprise bargaining landscape has undergone a dramatic transformation. Businesses must adapt to this new architecture, whether they are seasoned negotiators, engaging in bargaining for the first time or potentially being exposed to multi-employer bargaining.

This interactive training session, presented by Nigel Ward, CEO and Director of Australian Business Lawyers & Advisors, will equip attendees with the tools and strategies to negotiate effective workplace agreements that align with business objectives and comply with the latest legal requirements.

Key topics:

• The bargaining system and new architecture
• The tactical opportunities and the traps
• Key negotiation and communication tactics
• Understanding bargaining as a part of an ER plan, not a transactional event.

Join us for this essential training session and gain the skills to thrive in the reformed enterprise bargaining landscape.
