Explain the two exceptions of contract bar rule


Contract bar rule has two exceptions. First, the Board provides a window, or "open season," during which a rival union can offer its challenge by filing an election petition. This window is open between the ninetieth day and sixtieth day prior to the expiration of the current collective bargaining agreement. If no new petition is filed during the open-season period, then the last sixty days of the contract provide a period during which the parties can negotiate a new agreement insulated from any outside challenges. The second exception to the contract bar rule is that a contract for longer than three years will operate only as a bar to an election for three years. Any contract longer than three years duration will be treated as if it were three years long for the purposes of filing petitions; that is, the open-season period would occur between the ninetieth and the sixtieth day prior to the end of the third year of the agreement.
