I’m a chief shop steward/shop steward/an occupational safety and health representative. My employer has invited me to take part in negotiations outside working hours. What is the right course of action during a ban on overtime and shift swaps?

You should take part in the negotiations. However, you must first agree locally on the remuneration policy in situations where the chief shop steward, shop steward or occupational safety and health representative has to take part in the employer’s meetings outside working hours.
