Can AI do negotiating a collective bargaining agreement?

An expert breakdown of a typical process from public sources, worked out by the same rules as your own check.

1 of 11 steps goes to an agent

Goes to an agent (1)

An agent does these steps on its own.

  1. Analyse the current agreement and gather data for the position

    An agent can do this step alone: everything it takes is a strong suit of AI.

    • Extracting structure from an unstructured source
    • Checking against a reference and finding discrepancies

AI drafts, a person checks (4)

AI prepares the work; a person reviews and confirms it.

  1. Prepare the package of proposals and exchange them at the first session

    A person signs off: the step needs a formal approval.

  2. Clarify the proposals and check whether the subject is a mandatory one for bargaining

    A person signs off: the law or a regulator holds someone accountable for it.

  3. Cost each proposal

    A person signs off: the step needs a formal approval.

  4. Draw up the agreed text of the agreement

    A person signs off: the step needs a formal approval.

Stays with people (6)

These steps need a person's judgement or presence.

  1. Notice of the start of negotiations and appointment of the parties' bargaining teams

    Stays with people: it takes judgement that depends on your business context.

    • Consolidating people's contributions and resolving priority conflicts
  2. Gather proposals from members and stakeholders, priorities and the team's mandate

    Stays with people: it takes judgement that depends on your business context.

    • Judging risk or priority in a business context
    • Consolidating people's contributions and resolving priority conflicts
  3. Bargaining rounds: argument, counter-proposals, trading concessions

    Stays with people: it takes judgement that depends on your business context.

    • Judging risk or priority in a business context
    • Open-ended dialogue with an external party
  4. Mediation with a mediator when no agreement is reached

    Stays with people: it takes judgement that depends on your business context.

    • Open-ended dialogue with an external party
    • Consolidating people's contributions and resolving priority conflicts
  5. Declaration of impasse, exchange of final offers, cooling-off period

    Stays with people: it takes judgement that depends on your business context.

    • Judging risk or priority in a business context
  6. Bring the agreement into force, communicate the terms and monitor compliance

    Stays with people: it takes judgement that depends on your business context.

    • Consolidating people's contributions and resolving priority conflicts
1 step outside what AI can work on

Physical work, or nothing AI could apply itself to. These steps count in no figure.

  1. Ratification by a vote of the members, approval by the employer's governing body, signing

    Nothing in this step is work AI could apply itself to.
