PROGRAM OVERVIEW:
Ohio’s collective bargaining law will be 35 years old on April 1, 2019. For many, collective
bargaining matters have become routine but there remain many challenges for public
employers. This webinar will address best practices in collective bargaining issues and provide
suggestions and insights into reaching a successful conclusion to negotiations. We will also
discuss preparing for fact-finding and conciliation.
