Consultation and Representation. The parties to this agreement are committed to promoting good employee relations based upon goodwill, consultation, discussion and open communication. The parties acknowledge that consultation involves discussion in good faith and the accommodation of differing views where operational requirements allow. Consultation is defined as a process whereby all parties to the discussion genuinely commit to the exchange of relevant information, advice, and taking the views of each other into account. Where the company has made a decision to introduce changes in organisation, structure or technology that are likely to have significant effects on employees, the company shall consult with employees who may be affected by the proposed changes. This will occur during the development and prior to implementation so that the views of all the affected parties can be taken into account. The commitment to consultation may involve the sharing of information. The parties agree at all times to maintain the confidentiality of commercially or other sensitive information. The parties agree to establish the necessary arrangements specific to the issue to facilitate the commitment to consultation contained in the clause. The consultation process will be conducted in a cooperative and timely manner. Should any matter not be resolved the dispute settlement procedures outlined in clause 18 of this agreement will apply.
