      A collective agreement can’t include less than the law but can provide more than the law, so they could add paid overtime in the collective agreement and the employer would have to follow that even though the law doesn’t make it mandatory.

      A collective agreement is a work contract, the only difference is that the employees negotiate it as a group instead of one by one.

      Unions generally don’t write or repeal laws, but a union contract can negotiate overtime pay where there isn’t any.
