Our Polices

Industrial Relations Policy

Niche Construction Management has an enviable industrial relations track record. This has not occurred through good fortune. It comes from an approach that respects the views and aspirations of all project stakeholders. Our Industrial Relations Policy operates with five important principles in mind:

• People will be treated fairly and their rights as individuals will be observed and respected.
• Niche always strives to develop a spirit of co-operation among its people.
• Award and statutory obligations will be observed and statutes applying to Occupational Health and Safety will be treated as a minimum.
• Confrontation is to be avoided and negotiation is to be promoted as the means of dealing with issues.
• Senior management will always treat any cases with sensitivity and any concerns will be handled professionally and fairly.
