NEGOTIATION
The Negotiation Committee periodically holds Bipartite Negotiations with the representatives of major Trade Unions operating in plantations.
In the said negotiations, discussions are held on various topics concerning employee/employer relationship.
In these negotiations settlements are arrived at on various important issues like, Revision of wages / Salaries of workers / employees, Revision of Coffee picking Incentives, Revision of Tea Plucking Incentives etc.
These settlements are usually converted into Tripartite Settlements, which are applicable throughout the plantation Industry in Karnataka. By doing so, the KPA ensures that there is industrial peace.
