Collective bargaining is a fundamental mechanism of industrial relations through which employers and employees negotiate the terms and conditions of employment. Originating in the early twentieth century and later recognized by the International Labour Organisation, it promotes industrial democracy by enabling workers to collectively influence workplace policies with dignity and autonomy. The process involves structured negotiations on wages, benefits, working conditions, job security, and grievance redressal, ultimately culminating in legally binding agreements. Indian jurisprudence, through cases such as Karol Leather Karamchari Sangathan v. Liberty Foot Wear Company and Industrial Tribunal v. Ram Prasad Vishwakarma, underscores collective bargaining as a peaceful and cooperative method of resolving employment disputes. The Supreme Court in Chairman, SBI v. All Orissa State Bank Officers Association further clarified the representational rights of unions within this framework. Collective bargaining not only enhances worker rights and workplace standards but also contributes to productivity, stability, and harmonious labor–management relations. While it empowers employees by giving them a collective voice, it may also face challenges such as negotiation deadlocks and rigidity in implementation. Overall, collective bargaining remains an essential instrument for achieving fairness, cooperation, and balance in the employment relationship.
