Abstract
A survey conducted in Singapore considered tripartite perceptions of and attitudes towards conciliation. The authors hypothesize that, consistent with the prevailing ideology, the parties should indicate considerable acceptance of conciliation, share similar attitudes towards it, and that labour and management should have confidence in the official conciliators. These hypotheses are substantially confirmed by the results of the survey, and the authors conclude that such reservations as were held by labour and management are essentially technical and, therefore, remediable.
