Bucket bargaining: best process in interest based bargaining

Article Abstract:

'Bucket bargaining' adds two additional steps to the one-step model for interest-based bargaining in labor negotiations. Bucket bargaining requires the parties to come to terms on a settlement guideline before bargaining begins on economic issues. Once the settlement is reached, interest-based bargaining on economic issues begins. All issues may be resolved during this step. However, when repair or redesign issues remain, or when the settlement guidelines are not finalized, a final reconciliation is conducted.
