What are Fair Pay Agreements?Fair Pay Agreements (FPA) bring together unions and employer associations within
a sector to bargain for minimum employment terms for all covered employees in an
industry or occupation. This means that employee and employer representatives will
meet to discuss and agree on a set of employment terms for the work being done.
