answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/10/2016 answer text <p>The Government has put in place a robust legal framework to ensure workers can be represented by unions if that is their clear, democratic choice. The Government cannot get involved in individual cases such as this one. However, the law states that for a trade union to have the right to negotiate collectively and for its workplace representatives to be eligible for time off to carry out union duties, the union must be recognised by the employer.</p><p> </p><p>Statutory recognition (achieved through the Central Arbitration Committee – CAC) requires that a majority of the workforce support union recognition for collective bargaining with the employer.</p> answering member constituency Vale of Glamorgan answering member printed Alun Cairns question first answered 14/10/2016 11:04:16 answering member 4086 label Biography information for Alun Cairns
