601.01000 – In General, Per Se and Totality of Conduct; Prima Facie Case

* * * OVERRULED IN PART by Charter Oak Unified School District (1991) PERB Decision No. 873, where the Board held that the parties are required to consider the fact finding report in good faith. * * *

Board finds prima facie violation of section 3543.5(e) established where union alleged that employer did not seriously discuss fact- finding report and did not consider all possible bases of settlement by presenting take-it-or-leave-it proposal followed by slightly changed position labeled "last, best and final offer" with memo stating it believed the negotiation process to be completed.
