French term

les collectifs de travail

French to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general)
This is from an article about a company that has been taken to court for its arbitrary employee evaluation scheme. The Labour Unions have made proposals for a better evaluation, including the following:

Proposition est faite aussi de supprimer les procédés fondés sur les comparaisons entre salariés et de dissocier les augmentations de salaire de l'évaluation pour réduire les inégalités entre les salariés et éviter de porter préjudice aux collectifs de travail.

Thanks!

Thinking about it, professional groups might be taken to mean professional bodies (representing professional groups!")

A less ambiguous alternative would be "occupational groups"; as in:
