The UK’s Information and Consultation of Employees (ICE) regulations give employees the right to be informed and consulted on issues affecting their organisation.  

The best way to approach ICE regulations is to act proactively in setting up effective arrangements. This often involves setting up a workplace forum where management and employee representatives engage in a two-way dialogue, giving everyone an informed voice within the business. 

This guide offers practical advice on establishing and running effective ICE forums. It looks at enabling senior leaders to engage staff in conversations about organisational change and management strategy, while enhancing trust, transparency and collaboration across the business. There is also a checklist to download to help you create effective agendas for meetings.
