Periodic dialogue

Collective bargaining

Agreement content

Minutes template

What you'll get: Plenty of employers run dialogue as a formality and then struggle when an inspector asks for the minutes. This 110-minute course separates the statutory duty from the internal event: the three dialogue triggers, the six steps of collective bargaining and the duty not to refuse, the principle that an agreement can only raise the floor, the term and the 10-day filing rule, and a seven-section minutes template you can use immediately.

Who is this course for?

Employee relations and generalist HR practitioners
HR managers in organisations with an employee representative body
Anyone preparing for an upcoming bargaining round
Managers who need to understand the dialogue duty before changing a pay regulation

After this course, you will

Run periodic dialogue with the right composition, content and minutes
Work through the six bargaining steps without skipping one
Draft agreement content that avoids void clauses
Build a year-long calendar of industrial relations duties
