Employers: recognise a trade union

Skip contents

Ending negotiations

You and the union will not need to continue negotiations if the union withdraws its application. They must do this before the Central Arbitration Committee (CAC) either :

  • declares them recognised or not recognised
  • tells you that they바카라 사이트™re holding a ballot of your employees

You바카라 사이트™re recognising the union voluntarily

If the union is withdrawing its application because you바카라 사이트™ve agreed to recognise them, you and the union can tell CAC by sending a 바카라 사이트˜joint notice to cease consideration바카라 사이트™. This means CAC will no longer be involved.

Send CAC a letter signed by both you and the representative of the union.

You must do this before CAC declares the union is recognised or up to the last day of the ballot notification period (10 working days from when CAC told you about the ballot).
