Employee relations is the interplay that takes place between workers (or their representatives) and employers (or their representatives) about working conditions. It often involves conflict and the need for ways to resolve this conflict (or methods of dispute settlement). !This area of HRM has traditionally been known as industrial relations. It is also known as workplace relations.

What sort of things would an employer and employee have conflict over?
At the heart of most conflict in employee relations are the different views of employers and employees as to how the profits from productive effort should be shared. !Generally speaking, in large corporations, employers seek bigger dividends and capital investment for growth, while employees seek better pay and working conditions.
