The Way We Work. Te Whatu Ora and the PSA have developed a way of working together constructively, having built an open and positive relationship. This includes a shared focus to progress the common interests of the two organisations in having a safe, skilled, and supported workforce. Our aim, in line with the Te ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, is to support respectful relationships between those working in the health sector and strengthen commitment across the system to achieving equity of outcomes, including providing culturally responsive services. Ultimately, we believe that supporting teams to deliver quality care in a respectful and culturally safe way will improve health outcomes for all of Aotearoa. Te Whatu ▇▇▇ and the PSA will always work together in good faith to promote productive employment relationships in collective bargaining and in other dealings with each other. Working in good faith creates a climate of respect, openness, mutual trust, and free and ▇▇▇▇▇ communication. Principles supporting our relationship are: • An undertaking to always engage with each other in good faith. • Respecting the independence of the respective organisations including recognition of each other's specific responsibilities and accountabilities • Raising issues with each other at the earliest possible stage to allow opportunities for a problem-solving approach. • Using a problem-solving approach in addressing issues aiming to build a view that is generally acceptable and reflects any differing interests. • Maintaining open and regular communication to keep each other informed, and sharing information ensuring there are no surprises.
