Enterprise Agreements Factsheet

This Factsheet provides an overview of enterprise agreement. An enterprise agreement is an agreement negotiated and entered into between one or more employers and a group of employees, that sets out the terms and conditions of employment.

 Enterprise agreements come in three main types:

• Single-enterprise agreements, which involve one employer and at least two employees, though multiple employers may participate if their employees share a single interest (like joint projects);
• Multi-enterprise agreements, which apply to employees across multiple employers in cases where there’s a common interest; and
• Greenfields agreements, created between an employer and one or more unions for a new enterprise before any employees are hired, covering either single or multi-enterprise arrangements.

This factsheet provides information on the types of agreements, the content and the process involved in negotiating an agreement and enterprise bargaining.
