This chapter discusses defining and commencing collective bargaining. When a union is certified, the employer must bargain collectively with the union rather than individual employees. Both parties are required to establish bargaining teams to negotiate on issues like wages, benefits, and working conditions. Teams must bargain in good faith, such as being willing to reach an agreement rather than just participating for appearances. The chapter outlines how teams prepare for negotiations by determining priorities and initial proposals.
