Answer the following statements true (T) or false (F)

Question

1. Employers are legally allowed to survey their employees about their opinions on collective bargaining issues during the negotiation period.
2. The only time an employer is required to show the union financial information is if it claims that it is unable to afford one of the union's bargaining proposals.
3. Upon request, an employer has an obligation to provide information such as job evaluation data, health and safety statistics, and wage information to the union if it is necessary for representing the workers effectively.
4. During recent negotiations between Bosben Textiles and its employees, the employer asserts that he will not give a 3% pay increase because it would put him at a competitive disadvantage. When the union requests to see financial data backing this, Bosben must comply.
5. Thibeaux Printing is in negotiations with its 59 press operators. Though Thibeaux is meeting regularly with the union, it eventually becomes clear that they have no interest in moving on their offer and are simply doing the bare minimum to appear as if serious bargaining is going on. This is an example of illegal bad faith bargaining.
