Better yet, require the arbitrator to select one sides proposal in its
entirety, this gives both sides the incentive to make sure their entire
package is reasonable. If the arbitrator "picks and chooses" on each
article then tradeoffs that one side was willing to make may be destroyed
in the process ( eg employer offers increased job security in lieu of
higher wages but arbitrator accepts employers job security article and
the unions wage article )
