Labour Dispute Management (Pressure Tactics, Strikes, Lock-Out)

Union pressure tactics are diverse, and on occasion illegal: strikes, slowdowns, picketing, affixing stickers & decals, refusal to wear uniforms, wearing badges etc. 

Our lawyers provide timely and effective advice concerning the legality of these pressure tactics, and the best way to intervene and engage with employees and unions by applying solutions tailored to the circumstances.

Because these scenarios are short-fuse and require urgent responses, our lawyers make themselves available at all times to advise, represent, and if necessary, to obtain necessary relief from the Administrative Labour Tribunal or the Superior Court. 

We also offer strategic counsel to employers concerning the exercise of their right to lock-out and their application of anti-scab provisions set forth in the Labour Code.
