ERS supports employers through every stage of the collective bargaining process, from planning and strategy through to negotiations and implementation.
We provide practical advice on legal and contractual obligations, help develop bargaining claims, assess union objectives, and support organisations to achieve clear, well-considered outcomes.
Our approach is tailored to your organisation, your workforce, and the sector you operate in. We look at your unique circumstances as well as the wider economic and political environment to help design a bargaining strategy that is practical, robust, and aligned with your goals.
We work with employers across a wide range of sectors in New Zealand, including corporate, manufacturing, FMCG, supply chain and logistics, marine, and central and local government. With experience engaging with major unions and supporting businesses through complex bargaining processes, including multi-union bargaining, strikes, lockouts, and legal action, ERS brings the knowledge and support needed to help you bargain with confidence.
