ABSTRACT

New Zealand is developing a new system of industry and occupational collective bargaining, called Fair Pay Agreements, aiming to establish negotiated terms, conditions and standards across specified industries, sectors or occupations. This article describes the proposal, its genesis and content, including how it will interact with other bargaining and wage-setting machinery in New Zealand. The article considers several important issues that remain to be determined including whether the system will be compulsory or voluntary; the determination of participating bargaining parties and their representation; whether FPA provisions will be extended to contractors or limited to employees; the extent of exemptions or flexibility; and the extent and nature of arbitration. The article considers whether FPAs have the potential to transform industrial relations in New Zealand, and contribute to a reinvigoration of collectivism in employment relationships. Finally, the article provides some international comparisons between the FPA proposal and models of sectoral standard-setting in other countries.

新西兰的公平薪酬协议:部门和职业谈判的新方向

摘要

新西兰正在开发一种新的行业和职业集体谈判体系,称为公平薪酬协议,旨在为特定行业、部门或职业制定谈判条款、条件和标准。本文描述了该提案、其起源和内容,包括它将如何与新西兰的其他谈判和工资设定机制互动。文章考虑了几个尚待确定的重要问题,包括该制度是强制性的还是自愿性的;确定参与的谈判方及其代表;FPA 条款是否会扩展到承包商或仅限于员工;豁免或灵活性的范围;以及仲裁的范围和性质。本文考虑了 FPA 是否有可能改变新西兰的劳资关系,并有助于重振雇佣关系中的集体主义。最后,文章提供了 FPA 提案与其他国家部门标准制定模式之间的一些国际比较。
