Consult - Agreements

To help reach agreements on recommendations remember:

• all members are committed to the committee's aims and all views should be considered with respect. Both management and employee representatives will have expertise and knowledge to help make suitable recommendations;
• the committee chair can be effective in summarising points and helping the committee to come to reasonable recommendations;
• management representatives on the committee should have the authority to consider recommendations. Ultimately, the employer is responsible for managing health and safety, so you must decide how you choose to address the committee's feedback.
