Distributive bargaining
Good faith bargaining
Integrative bargaining
Interest-based bargaining

Answer(s): D

Interest-based bargaining focuses on interests rather than positions, and it separates people from the problem. This type of bargaining is done in co-operation between the two parties. Interest-based bargaining aims to create many possible solutions before settling on just one. Answer option A is incorrect. Distributive bargaining happens when each side sets their case and then does their best to stick to their objectives. Distributive bargaining is combative, adversarial, and can corrode management-labor relationships. Answer option C is incorrect. Integrative bargaining describes the process of examining issues as a whole, rather than one at a time. Integrative bargaining looks for a win-win for both sides of the disagreement. Answer option B is incorrect. Good faith bargaining is not a bargaining type, but a description of the process both sides should go into the bargaining process with.
