Our EBA Consultancy service helps you to achieve success with enterprise bargaining agreements. We provide solutions and outcomes for your organisation’s bargaining strategy and EBA development.

OVERVIEW

Flexible EBA Consultancy to help your business

Choosing the right partner to support you with developing enterprise bargaining agreements (EBAs) is a strategic decision that can significantly impact your organisation’s costs, growth and stability. Australia’s highly complex industry awards system can be difficult and confusing. Having access to specialist HR guidance and advice for your business can be invaluable.

We understand how complex managing EBA processes can be and we offer our expertise to help take the weight off of you and your company. We can assist with applications before the Fair Work Commission, modern award comparative exercises, preparing and drafting enterprise agreements and liaison with employees, trade unions and other industrial representatives. We help organisations to achieve solid EBA outcomes for their team at any stage of the bargaining cycle. 

Let us partner with your company to successfully navigate EBA strategy development and bargaining processes – amongst the most important decisions for organisation’s future stability and security.

Enterprise Bargaining Cycles

We are at your service to provide you with support and security throughout the bargaining cycle for your enterprise agreements.

Our service also includes assistance with voting and approval, lodgement administration and if need be, disputes and negotiations before the Fair Work Commission. We also provide advice on emerging enterprise agreement clauses, transfer of business matters and multi-employer bargaining as well as expert guidance on managing relationships with Union Delegates and Union Officials.

We can also conduct fulsome rate of pay evaluations using the Fair Work Ombudsman’s Pay Calculator (Pay And Conditions Tool – P.A.C.T) as well as market-based salary assessments.
