Grievances, Disputes and the Collective Agreement

Resolving the disputes in the unionized context requires understanding and confidence participating in the grievance process – from informal discussion to preparing for arbitration.

This 1.5-day course offers a comprehensive and hands-on skills development approach to effective grievance handling.

Focus is placed on learning how to interpret collective agreement language and prepare for and respond to grievances, including union representatives. Participants will develop a keen understanding of how to utilize the grievance process to resolve disputes in a productive and timely manner that brings clarity and closure to issues arising from the administration/application of the collective agreement.
