Overview

The Partnership Resource Centre (PRC) helps employers and unions build positive relationships and work together in partnership.

We have a team of independent associates, who each have extensive knowledge and experience in industrial relations and organisational development. They can work alongside employers, unions and staff, and help them develop constructive partnerships, improve their current partnership practices, or work through a particular problem. 

We’re building expertise and promoting partnership

Partnership is a modern approach to managing employment and industrial relations. It’s about creating new employment relationships based on co-operation and mutual gain.

Across the world, and in New Zealand, many organisations have seen the benefits of partnership. That’s why we’ve been working to become a centre for partnership excellence. We’ve developed a collection of useful resources for people exploring partnership practices, and we conduct research and organise events to educate New Zealand organisations and unions about partnership.
