The concept of Collective bargaining is the most efficient way in solving the disputes
between the employer and the employee, concept of collective bargaining is defined by the
Supreme Court as “the technique by which dispute as to conditions of employment is resolved
amicably by agreement rather than coercion”. It involves the process of discussion and
negotiation between employer and workmen regarding terms of employment and working
conditions in the collective bargaining process the workers are generally represented by trade
unions with respect to expressing their grievance concerning service conditions and wages
before the employer and the management. The practise of collective bargaining is protected
by the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 this legislation will treat the practise of the employer to
be unfair if they refused to collectively bargain in good faith with the employer. This is
generally an effective system as it usually results in employers undertaking actions to resolve
the issues of the workers.
