Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Providing for a deferred wage increase does not limit the duty to bargain, as bargaining may still take place over other terms and conditions of employment. The other options, such as giving management the right to take unilateral actions or agreeing to waive the right to reopen negotiations, limit the duty to bargain by restricting the scope of issues that can be negotiated. Structuring a grievance-arbitration procedure is a way to resolve disputes, but does not limit the duty to bargain.
