Next on the agenda are the Cafeteria and ESP/Therapy Assistants contracts.

What is Interest Based Bargaining?
IBB is a collaborative approach to resolving labor and management disputes. Through the process, parties proactively identify durable solutions to outcomes at the bargaining table. Agreements are based on mutual and individual interests rather than positions. This approach emphasizes problem solving and enables mutual gain outcomes.
