Collective consultation process
The collective consultation process is a formal procedure where employers engage with employees or their representatives, such as unions, to discuss important workplace issues. This can include changes in employment terms, working conditions, or redundancies. The aim is to ensure that employees have a voice in decisions that affect them, fostering communication and cooperation. It typically involves information sharing, gathering feedback, and negotiating terms to reach an agreement that considers both parties' interests. This process is intended to promote transparency and fairness in the workplace.
