Summary
This report considers and advises on the legal and practical implications for the Company Board of Directors (“the Board”) of the invitation for voluntary recognition as a Trade Union (“TU”). The relevant law applicable to TU recognition is the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act (1992), The Employment Rights Act 1999, The Trade Union Recognition (Method of Collective Bargaining) Order 2000, The Employment Rights Act 2004 and the Code of Practice on Access during Recognition and De-recognition Ballots 2005 . Furthermore, the independent Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service (ACAS) have also implemented codes of practice as aids to management of TU issues in the workplace. Although these codes are not mandatory, adherence to the principles of the codes are considered by the Central Arbitration Committee (CAC) in the event of a dispute between employers and unions . Accordingly, I will also consider the provisions of the codes in my advice to the Board.
