Abstract

The authors review the controversy concerning the scope of the obligation to bargain during the life of a negotiated agreement in the federal sector and conclude that when the third parties under E.O. 11491 ultimately resolve this issue their position will likely be that the obligation to bargain midterm is more narrow than that existing at the time the basic agreement is negotiated.
