Professional Industrial Relations Services
Labour Law and Employee Industrial Relations
The field of industrial relations deals with effective interactions and relationship between employers, employees and governmental institutions which represent them.
The ultimate aim of preserving a smooth-running interaction is preserving the rights and interests of the workers while maintaining uninterrupted production, which ensures ongoing profit for both parties.
Another objective is to eradicate, or at least reduce, the incidence of strike action, grievances and lockouts, which, once again, interrupt industrial activity.
Mutually advantageous interaction between employers, employees and intermediary bodies promotes successful and continuous growth and production in an organization. Effective management of industrial and employee relations ensures optimal staff performance as well as reduced conflict in the working environment, minimizing disruption to most efficient company operation.
