The latest edition of the Conference Board’s Industrial Relations Outlook expects that the climate of moderate economic growth will likely temper expectations at collective bargaining tables across the country in 2015. In most provinces, public sector workers continue to be constrained by government deficits and debt, which will almost certainly “trump” demands for improved wages and benefits. In general, private sector workers will continue to be subject to marketplace variability.
Human resources leaders across all industries are being tasked with increasing workplace productivity to ensure investments training, leadership development and compensation are maximized, and to drive long-term competitive advantages—a goal that makes sense in any operating environment, but all the more crucial in an uncertain global economy.
Find out more about the challenges faced by many public and private sector organizations, and how senior labour and management practitioners envision labour market and collective bargaining prospects for 2015.
