Reorganization 9-6 If the union demands bargaining, management must bargain in good faith until reaching either impasse or resolution (agreement). The importance of this matter to the affected union is great. Therefore, management must be willing to meet a reasonable number of times (at least several) and keep an open mind to issues raised and suggestions made by the union. While it is difficult to generalize, a department which learns at a spring town meeting that its budget has been cut should be prepared to commence negotiations promptly thereafter if it hopes to implement changes at the start of the next fiscal year (July 1). Labor counsel should be consulted concerning what role, if any, the Joint Labor-<strong>Management</strong> Committee might be expected to play, especially if regular contract negotiations are underway at the same time.
