PERB may defer an unfair practice charge to arbitration if the respondent carries its burden to establish that: (1) the dispute arises within a stable collective bargaining relationship; (2) the respondent is willing to waive/ procedural defenses and to arbitrate the merits of the dispute; (3) the contract and its meaning lie at the center of the dispute; and (4) no recognized exception to deferral applies.
