What the source says

  • Section 11: a primary duty to negotiate before deciding on a material change.
  • Section 13: a duty also towards unions without a collective agreement where the matter particularly concerns a member.
  • Section 19: a continuing duty to inform on the development of the business.

Call the negotiation before the decision is taken, not after, and minute its conclusion.

For the employee · How the employee puts the question

A decision taken without negotiation may give rise to damages, even where the decision itself stands.
