Heads of Terms vs. updated Collective Agreement

[Zwxc]

I'm looking for some advice in relation to a grievance that was partially upheld recently by my employer.

A Heads of Terms, detailing proposed changes to the company's Collective Agreement, was put forward in early December 2023 and a subsequent union ballot was agreed upon on the 22nd December 2023, for the changes to take effect from 1st January 2024.
In the current version of the Collective Agreement, dated November 2022, it states that any changes to the Collective Agreement will be made within one month.

In December 2024, I initiated the company's grievance procedure as they had still not updated the contents of the Agreement. This week (February 2025), I received the company's outcome on the grievance and they have stated that whilst they accept the Agreement is outdated and they will look to get it updated this year (but with no timescale), they only partially uphold my grievance as the company stresses that the Heads of Terms should be used in conjunction with the Agreement and my contract.

My question is, although the company implied their intentions in the Heads of Terms, my contract states I am bound by the Collective Agreement, and the Agreement states that changes are to be made within one month, is it worth initiating the Appeal procedure to request the company to fully uphold my grievance? It is now 13 months since the changes and still no update and neither my contract or the Agreement states that any Heads of Terms issued should form part of my contract.

Thank you.

Is the company adhering to the changes to the Collective Agreement as agreed by the ballot, even if they have not been updated?

My view is the Union should be taking this up with the company

Thanks for your reply and apologies for my late one.
Yes, the company are adhering to the changes, however they have also produced a separate FAQ document which has things in that aren't covered by the Collective Agreement changes. The Union have expressed dissatisfaction in that latter part as they had no input in it.

If they are adhering to the agreed changes despite, not updating the content of the Agreement, then that is the major point. I would have been more concerned if they were not adhering to the changes and then would have suggested you considered an appeal.

If the Union are dissatisfied with the separata FAQ document that is up to them to take up with the company.
