When does the Board intervene in a collective bargaining dispute?
The government is mandated to step in when parties reach a difficult impasse in their independent negotiations. If the dispute is not settled through the required conferences, the Board shall intervene upon request of either or both parties or at its own initiative. The Board will then immediately call the parties to mandatory conciliation meetings to facilitate an agreement. This critical intervention process is governed by Article 261 Labor Code of the Philippines. “(c) If the dispute is not settled, the Board shall intervene upon request of either or both parties or at its own initiative and immediately call the parties to conciliation meetings.” 01-Jun-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
