Welcome to the Fundamentals of Construction Labour Relations registration site!

This unique labour relations course was developed in consultation with knowledgeable and experienced construction industry professionals. It provides a practical, hands-on experience that you can take back to your day-to-day professional life to enhance relationships and create a positive labour relations environment in Ontario’s construction industry.

Delivered in-person over 3-days in a small class format, you can expect to engage with industry experts and your labour and management colleagues as you explore labour regulations, the historical context that created our current labour relations regime and delve into topics such as JDs, negotiations and the duty to accommodate. 

We believe that in addition to building knowledge, this course will help build stronger relationships as participants engage with each other by discussing and sharing real-life experiences.

Upon completion, participants will receive a McMaster University Continuing Education Certificate of Attendance and points towards accreditation by Canadian Construction Association's Gold Seal Program.
