It just depends on the circumstances; for instance :-

(1) if I were a worker who had found another job I could walk into, I wouldn't be pleased if I lost the job because I had to wait 90 days to qualify for my redundancy pay.

(2) again depending on the circumstances I can see where both the 45 days and the 90 days negotiations could lose the company more money. What if everything was settled in a month but the company had to keep paying the negotiating consultants extremely expensive salaries for the 2 months when they were dong nothing. It might be best to allow some form of legal leeway of between 45 and 90 days to assist both the workers and the employers.
