Abstract: | This long essay treats the Collective Bargaining Unit (CBU) as an entity within the public service/sector that was established to harmonise and standardise industrial relations most particularly in financial matters, between civil/ public service employees and the government department, public entities and independent statutory bodies. This study, while researching the functionality and relevance, of the Collective Bargaining Unit, attempts also to compare and contrast collective bargaining at public and private levels in view of the differential and variations that exist between both. It emphasises on the role of the CBU within the context of trade union demands to improve the salaries and wages and above all the general working conditions of public service and public sector employees. While there are political, economic and social aspects that cannot be ignored, this study delves into the achievements of the CBU and therefore its future against the background of it having to operate within strict ministerial guidelines. Above all, the aim of this study was to explore whether the CBU has fulfilled its obligations and responsibilities that it has been created to observe. |
