PERB’s remedial authority is determined by statute, not by a contractual agreement between parties, and this authority cannot be limited or constrained by stipulation of the parties. MOU language was not a “clear and unmistakable” waiver of union’s right to a remedial order that the employer remit unlawfully withheld dues to union when the employer presented no evidence that the parties intended this agreement to apply in such a way to supersede PERB’s remedial authority in the event the employer unlawfully refused to remit dues and fees.
