The round has a home
Bargaining unit, agreement, expiry, committee, priorities, calendar.
By Need
Bargaining preparation
The committee should sit down knowing the unit, the expiry, what is open, and what members were already told.
Union Software is built for the collective bargaining economy — the local, the unit, the hall, the board — not for an employer HR stack. Preparation here is a round: unit, agreement, committee, proposals, sessions, costing, member-ready updates.
How the week runs in the software
Bargaining holds the unit, expiry, proposals, costing, and the member-ready update. Agreements is the current language. Communications sends only the approved paragraph.
The software answers what is open, which article is changing, what the unit can be told, and how many days to expiry.
How Union Software helps
The register is the table
Owner, article, status — committee review, counter prepared, open, agreed.
The current clause sits beside the proposal
Agreements is the starting language.
Sessions become follow-up
Agenda, private notes, exchanges, assignments while the discussion is fresh.
Members hear a released paragraph
Communications to the unit in People. Strategy stays permissioned. This is preparation and the life of the round — not a deal-room metaphor.
Open the round on the real agreement
Notice is due. The committee is named. Nobody has put the unit, the expiry, and the current book in one place.
Create the round: bargaining unit, agreement, expiry date, committee.
Open the current agreement in the library and confirm status and dates.
Confirm the unit list in People — who this round actually covers.
Set the first committee date on the bargaining calendar.

Get StartedQuestions they actually ask
Where do proposals live?
On the Bargaining round: owner, article, status. Email is not the register.
How does costing stay visible to the Treasurer?
The number sits on the proposal. Finance roles can open it. Committee strategy stays restricted.
How does the unit get a member-ready update?
Bargaining keeps that paragraph on a separate lane. Communications sends it to the unit in People.
How is the current clause opened beside a proposal?
Agreements stores the instrument. The round points at that article.
How are expiry and notice kept on the round?
Dates live on the Bargaining record. The statute still governs how notice is given.
