Union Recognition success


Another success for Gravitate HR working in collaboration with our clients.  For some months we have been in consultation with ACAS and a Trade Union on a proposed recognition agreement which the company did not believe was in the best interests of the workforce,  It was decided to go to ballot - with the Union requiring 40% of the vote to achieve recognition.  The outcome was strongly in favour of the NO vote

Our approach was informative, consultative and remaining open and honest with the workforce. It proved to us that our current methods of communicating with the workforce was and is being perceived positively.

We involved ACAS in order to ensure the statutory obligations were being met, to oversee the secret postal ballot.

It demontrates that a consistent approach, being open and honest and believing in what you’ve got works gets positive results.

This result allows our client to move on, how they see best for their organisation, dealing directly with the staff day to day and removing the need for a third party.
