Stringer Brisbin Humphrey - Collective Bargaining

At Stringer Brisbin Humphrey we understand today's business world - the pressures of intense competition and globalization that often leave employers with very little room to maneuver. We help you effectively communicate this reality to the union to achieve results in collective bargaining that allow you to remain competitive. We take a problem solving approach to negotiation. We help clients devise effective strategies that are appropriate to the needs of the client's particular circumstances. Our positive working relationships and our extensive network of union contacts enhance our ability to problem solve on our client's behalf.

We have been involved in hundreds of sets of negotiations in both the private and public sectors, involving local and national bargaining units of all sizes. Whether representing you at the bargaining table, or advising you behind the scene, we help you negotiate the best deal possible. When strikes and lockouts do occur we can obtain injunctions and cease and desist orders, as required.

Services include:

Collective agreement negotiations
Acting as advisors to employers who undertake their own negotiation
First contract arbitration under the Labour Relations Act
Interest arbitration in health care and other sectors
Management of strikes and lockouts to minimize disruption
Representation relating to bad faith bargaining complaints
Representation relating to unfair labour practice allegations
Obtaining cease and desist orders, or injunctions, as required
