§

981. Good faith; failure to agree

For the purpose

of this chapter to bargain collectively is the performance of the mutual

obligation of the employer and the representative of the employees to meet at

reasonable times and confer in good faith with respect to all matters

bargainable under the provisions of this chapter; but the failure or refusal of

either party to agree to a proposal, or to change or withdraw a lawful

proposal, or to make a concession shall not constitute, or be evidence direct

or indirect, of a breach of this obligation. (Added 1969, No. 113, § 1.)
