Full job description

Coast | Full-Time, Permanent | Nova Scotia

Coast is seeking a Senior Labour Relations Advisor to provide dedicated, high-quality labour and employee relations support across client operations, including unionized long-term care environments in Nova Scotia. This role is the go-to practitioner for collective agreement administration, grievance management, workplace investigations, and complex employee relations matters.

He/she acts as a steady, professional presence, ensuring that all labour and employee-related matters are handled with consistency, fairness, and sound judgment. The role requires a solid command of employment and labour law, disciplined follow-through, and the ability to navigate complex people issues with firmness and discretion. The Advisor works closely with corporate and client-site leadership to maintain a well-structured, policy-driven, and compliant workplace culture.

This is a specialist labour and employee relations role. Coast invests in its people: the successful candidate will be supported in advancing toward their CPHR designation and trained to leverage modern tools — including AI-assisted drafting, research, and case management — to work efficiently and to a high professional standard. Access to Coast’s broader HR team is available as a professional resource for matters outside the core labour and employee relations mandate.

Key Responsibilities

1. Labour and Employee Relations

Lead or support workplace investigations, disciplinary actions, and conflict resolution across client operations.
Administer and interpret collective agreements; manage grievances from receipt through resolution or arbitration referral, ensuring responses meet legal and ethical standards.
Advise management on employee relations, performance issues, accommodation, and termination decisions.
Support collective bargaining preparation and participate on employer bargaining committees.
Build strong working relationships with client-side leadership and union representatives while maintaining clear professional boundaries.
Promote respectful workplace practices and support the development of management accountability.

2. Workplace Investigations

Conduct and support investigations involving harassment, bullying, discrimination, workplace violence, misconduct, and resident- or client-related concerns.
Prepare investigation reports with findings, analysis, and recommendations that withstand legal and arbitration scrutiny.
Ensure investigations comply with Nova Scotia OHS harassment regulations (effective September 2025) and procedural fairness requirements.

3. Policy and Governance

Interpret, apply, and support enforcement of HR and labour relations policies in line with Nova Scotia and federal labour standards.
Ensure procedures are applied consistently across all client sites and business units.
Maintain up-to-date knowledge of legislative changes affecting employment, labour, and human rights compliance.

4. Case Management and Documentation

Ensure all cases, investigations, and disciplinary actions are accurately documented and securely stored.
Prepare written summaries, letters, and reports — including termination, suspension, grievance response, and accommodation correspondence — for leadership review or legal follow-up.
Track the status of ongoing matters and ensure timely resolution and closure.
Maintain full confidentiality and demonstrate sound judgment in handling sensitive information.

5. Compliance and Reporting

Ensure all labour and employee relations practices align with provincial and federal employment standards, occupational health and safety legislation, and privacy laws.
Conduct periodic reviews of files, collective agreement compliance, and policy acknowledgements.
Prepare concise reports and summaries for executive review, highlighting labour relations risks and trends.

⸻

Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Industrial/Labour Relations, Business Administration, or a related field.
Minimum of five (5) years of progressive HR experience, with meaningful exposure to labour relations in a unionized environment.
Demonstrated experience in grievance management, collective agreement interpretation, and workplace investigations.
Strong working knowledge of Nova Scotia Labour Standards, Trade Union Act, Human Rights, and OH&S legislation.
Exceptional written communication, documentation, and analytical skills.
Comfort with technology and a willingness to adopt AI-assisted tools for drafting, research, and case management.
High personal integrity and professional resilience in managing complex employee matters.
CPHR designation, active candidacy, or eligibility required; support toward completion provided.
Experience in long-term care or other unionized environments considered a strong asset.
Valid driver’s licence and willingness to travel to client sites.
