Objectives and Functions. The union-management consultation mechanism will provide a process whereby representatives from union and management will meet from time to time to discuss issues of interest and/or concerns. This process is one in which the parties seek information, provide advice and exchange views on specific matters; it is a means of fostering understanding of the other parties’ concerns and particular views pertaining to specific issues and developments within the business. The consultation process allows the parties the opportunity to develop meaningful dialogue, to bring forth their particular points of view, and in a spirit of good faith, attempt to find solutions to concerns and issues raised by each party. The main objective of union-management consultation is to provide an effective ongoing communication vehicle between union and management which facilitates discussion of issues, if not resolution. Union-management consultation does not imply any agreement on issues discussed nor does it in any way interfere with the management’s authority or obligation to manage, or the union’s legal rights under the Labour Relations Code of British Columbia, or the Collective Agreement.
