Abstract(summary):

All industrial relations systems have one element in common. This is the possibility of disagreements and disputes among various contending interests and the presence of recognized procedures to resolve the disputes either through compromise and/or negotiation. By so doing, industrial harmony and peace necessary for industrial growth and development can be achieved. The intention of this paper is to highlight the changes collective bargaining is currently undergoing in Nigeria due to economical recession and also its impact on processes and behaviour of the actors. It concludes with suggestions on ways to enhance union – management relations.
