Basic Statutory Training

Our Basic Statutory Training course offers a broad overview of federal-sector labor law.  Common topics are: 

• The FLRA's structure and the ULP investigation process;
• The duty to bargain in good faith, including the de minimis and "covered by" doctrines, and substantive versus impact and implementation bargaining;
• Meetings, including formal discussions, bypasses, and investigatory examinations (or Weingarten meetings);
• Interference with statutory rights and discrimination based on protected activity; 
• Bars to filing ULP charges, such as timeliness and prior grievances; and
• Information requests.
