One sided contract

There is talk of the Government 'imposing a contract' on junior doctors.

That doesn't make sense to me because I think of a contract as a special type of formal agreement between two or more parties.

The Government may well eventually impose working conditions on junior doctors. Determined governments can impose almost anything on their subjects, but what is so imposed is not a contract ! Perhaps we should call it an imposition.
