Conciliation is a procedure by which CCMA-accredited commissioners, who are selected for the NBCRFLI board, meet with parties of employers and workers in conflict and explore ways to resolve the dispute. Legal representation is not permitted with respect to the rules.

This is a non-prejudice process outside the registration process. For the parties to reach an agreement, both parties must be present at the conciliation hearing. If one of the parties does not participate in the conciliation hearing, the case remains whole and can only be resolved by arbitration or by the labour tribunal, depending on the nature of the dispute. Sometimes the parties do not participate in conciliation because they prefer an adjudicative (or arbitration) procedure. However, it is important to note that arbitration is a much more stressful, time-consuming and costly process.

Short payments on contributions received may have the following consequences: i. Employers calculate contributions on the weekly base salary of employees. In general, wages increase in the industry in March of each year.

As a result, contributions can be calculated on previous and current wages, i.e. the deficit; ii. Employers have the right to charge a portion of the contributions in a given month, since a worker is not unduly absent from work.
