How long can collective bargaing last?

Collective bargaining can last anywhere from a few days to several months, depending on the complexity of the issues being negotiated and the willingness of both parties to reach an agreement. If negotiations stall, they may extend indefinitely or require mediation or arbitration to resolve disputes. In some cases, collective bargaining can be temporarily suspended or interrupted, particularly if a contract is still in effect. Ultimately, the duration is influenced by the specific circumstances and dynamics of the negotiating parties.
