800.00000 – UNION UNFAIR PRACTICES; DUTY OF FAIR REPRESENTATION
800.03000 – Negotiations

Duty of fair representation does not bar union from making an agreement which may have an unfavorable effect on some members. Thus, allegation that not all unit members received the same salary increase does not establish a violation.
