Kirk Hope: BusinessNZ CEO says enforcing collective bargaining under Fair Pay legislation could breach international labour law

The Government's move to enforce collective bargaining under its Fair Pay legislation could breach international labour law.  Collective bargaining would be made compulsory under the proposals. And while the UN's International Labour Organisation promotes the practice it does not enforce it. BusinessNZ Chief Kirk Hope told Mike Hosking the move could put New Zealand on a list of the world's worst breaches.“Convention that New Zealand is breaching is about freedom of association and supporting about collective bargaining but not in a compulsory way, which is the big problem for the Government.”LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
