Collective bargaining when properly managed should lead to workplace harmony and positive change.<\/p><p class=\"font_8\"><span class=\"wixGuard\">\u200b<\/span>We will study the existing industrial relations system in Sri Lanka to check whether it needs to be replaced by a new fairer system.<\/p><p class=\"font_8\"><span class=\"wixGuard\">\u200b<\/span>If elected, we will set up an Investigatory Parliamentary Committee to look into the existing system of industrial relations.
