A per se violation of the duty to bargain in good faith will be found where there has been a unilateral change in the status quo concerning a negotiable subject of bargaining. PERB recognizes three general categories of unlawful unilateral actions: (1) changes to the parties’ written agreement; (2) changes in an established past practice; and (3) newly created, implemented, or enforced policies.
