602.00000 – EMPLOYER REFUSAL TO BARGAIN IN GOOD FAITH; UNILATERAL CHANGE (FOR NEGOT OF SPECIFIC SUBJECTS, SEE SEC 1000, SCOPE OF REPRESENTATION)
602.06000 – Change in Past Practice

For at least 14 years, District’s past practice was to allow police detectives to use District-owned vehicles to commute to and from home. The practice was unequivocal, clearly enunciated and acted upon and readily ascertainable for a reasonable period of time. Accordingly, the District’s practice constituted an enforceable past practice and District violated its duty to bargain by unilaterally changing its practice.
