The Burke Group [TBG] is a recognized international leader in guiding management during union recognition campaigns and trade union negotiations in the UK/EU and United States since 1982.
Although our international work in the UK, Canada, Central America, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands has been ongoing, our presence in the UK increased significantly after the Employee Relations Act (ERA 1999) was established in June 2000 which triggered new procedures related to trade union recognition. Since that time, The Burke Group has been assisting management and their workforces in labour relations initiatives and the related intricacies of trade union recognition and ballot elections. We have been engaged not only by UK companies, but also US foreign subsidiaries located in the UK and EU including the Republic of Ireland, France, Germany, Switzerland and Portugal.

Trade Union Recognition Campaigns - Education, Training, and Mentoring to management is key to delivering communications that adhere to applicable current law during recognition campaigns and ballot inititiatives.

We can design management training that will identify issues and solve them. We will guide you to optimum conditions that can be periodically monitored by company staff or TBG align your labour relations startegies to succesfully achieve your business objectives.
