15bargaining units described under sub. (1) (a) and (j) may be combined into a single
16unit. If 2 or more collective bargaining units seek to combine into a single collective
17bargaining unit, the commission shall, upon the petition of at least 30 percent of the
18employees in each unit, hold an election, or include on any ballot for an election held
19under s. 111.990 (2) the question of whether to combine units, to determine whether
20a majority of those employees voting in each unit desire to combine into a single unit.
21A combined collective bargaining unit shall be formed including all employees from
22each of those units in which a majority of the employees voting in the election approve
23a combined unit. The collective bargaining units shall be combined immediately
24unless there is no existing collective bargaining agreement in force in any of the units

1to be combined and then the collective bargaining units shall be combined upon
2expiration of the last agreement for the units concerned.
AB40-SA36,45,153 (b) If 2 or more collective bargaining units have combined under par. (a), the
4commission shall, upon petition of at least 30 percent of the employees in any of the
5original units, hold an election of the employees in the original unit to determine
6whether the employees in that unit desire to withdraw from the combined collective
7bargaining unit. If a majority of the employees voting desire to withdraw from the
8combined collective bargaining unit, separate units consisting of the unit in which
9the election was held and a unit composed of the remainder of the combined unit shall
10be formed. The new collective bargaining units shall be formed immediately unless
11there is a collective bargaining agreement in force for the combined unit and then the
12new units shall be formed upon the expiration of the agreement. While there is a
13collective bargaining agreement in force for the combined collective bargaining unit,
14a petition for an election under this paragraph may be filed only during October in
15the calendar year prior to the expiration of the agreement.
AB40-SA36,45,23 16(4) Any labor organization may petition for recognition as the exclusive
17representative of a collective bargaining unit described under sub. (1) or (2) in
18accordance with the election procedures under s. 111.990 if the petition is
19accompanied by a 30 percent showing of interest in the form of signed authorization
20cards. Any additional labor organization seeking to appear on the ballot must file
21a petition within 60 days of the date of filing of the original petition and prove,
22through signed authorization cards, that at least 10 percent of the employees in the
23collective bargaining unit want it to be their representative.
AB40-SA36,46,7 24(5) Although academic staff supervisors are not considered employees for the
25purpose of this subchapter, the commission may consider a petition for a statewide

1collective bargaining unit consisting of academic staff supervisors, but the
2representative of the supervisors may not be affiliated with any labor organization
3representing employees. For purposes of this subsection, affiliation does not include
4membership in a national, state, county, or municipal federation of national or
5international labor organizations. The certified representative of the supervisors
6may not bargain collectively with respect to any matter other than wages and fringe
7benefits.
AB40-SA36,46,18 8111.990 Representatives and elections. (1) A representative chosen for the
9purposes of collective bargaining by a majority of the employees voting in a collective
10bargaining unit is the exclusive representative of all of the employees in such unit
11for the purposes of collective bargaining. Any individual employee, or any minority
12group of employees in any collective bargaining unit, may present any grievance to
13the employer in person, or through representatives of their own choosing, and the
14employer shall confer with the individual employee or group of employees with
15respect to the grievance if the majority representative has been given the
16opportunity to be present at the conference. Any adjustment resulting from a
17conference may not be inconsistent with the conditions of employment established
18by the majority representative and the employer.
AB40-SA36,47,5 19(2) (a) Whenever a question arises concerning the representation of employees
20in a collective bargaining unit, the commission shall determine the representation
21by taking a secret ballot of the employees and certifying in writing the results to the
22interested parties. There shall be included on any ballot for the election of
23representatives the names of all labor organizations having an interest in
24representing the employees participating in the election as indicated in petitions
25filed with the commission. The name of any existing representative shall be included

1on the ballot without the necessity of filing a petition. The commission may exclude
2from the ballot one who, at the time of the election, stands deprived of his or her rights
3under this subchapter by reason of a prior adjudication of his or her having engaged
4in an unfair labor practice. The ballot shall permit a vote against representation by
5anyone named on the ballot.
AB40-SA36,47,196 (b) 1. Except as provided in subd. 2., for elections in a collective bargaining unit
7composed of employees who are members of the faculty or academic staff, whenever
8more than one representative qualifies to appear on the ballot, the ballot shall
9provide separate votes on 2 questions. The first question shall be: "Shall the
10employees of the .... (name of collective bargaining unit) participate in collective
11bargaining?" The 2nd question shall be: "If the employees of the .... (name of
12collective bargaining unit) elect to participate in collective bargaining, which labor
13organization do you favor to act as representative of the employees?" The 2nd
14question may not include a choice for no representative. All employees in the
15collective bargaining unit may vote on both questions. Unless a majority of those
16employees voting in the election vote to participate in collective bargaining, no votes
17for a particular representative may be counted. If a majority of those employees
18voting in the election vote to participate in collective bargaining, the ballots for
19representatives shall be counted.
AB40-SA36,48,2120 2. For elections in a collective bargaining unit composed of employees who are
21members of the faculty or academic staff, whenever more than one representative
22qualifies to appear on the ballot and a question of whether to combine collective
23bargaining units as permitted under s. 111.98 (2) (a) qualifies to appear on the ballot,
24the ballot shall provide separate votes on 3 questions and each ballot shall identify
25the collective bargaining unit to which each voter currently belongs. The first

1question shall be: "Shall the employees of the .... (name of the voter's current
2collective bargaining unit) participate in collective bargaining?" The 2nd question
3shall be: "Shall the employees of the .... (names of all of the collective bargaining
4units that qualify to appear on the ballot, including the name of the voter's current
5collective bargaining unit) combine to participate in collective bargaining?" The 3rd
6question shall be: "If the employees of the .... (name of the voter's current collective
7bargaining unit) elect to participate in collective bargaining, which labor
8organization do you favor to act as representative of the employees?" The 3rd
9question may not include a choice for no representative. All employees in the
10collective bargaining unit may vote on all questions. Unless a majority of those
11employees voting in the election vote to participate in collective bargaining, no votes
12for combination or for a particular representative may be counted. If a majority of
13those employees voting in the election vote to participate in collective bargaining, the
14ballots for combination shall be counted. If the ballots for combination are counted
15and a majority of those employees voting from each collective bargaining unit listed
16in the 2nd question on the ballot vote to combine, then the ballots for representatives
17of the combined collective bargaining unit shall be counted. If the ballots for
18combination are counted and a majority of those employees voting from each
19collective bargaining unit listed in the 2nd question on the ballot do not vote to
20combine, then the ballots for representatives of each current collective bargaining
21unit shall be counted.
AB40-SA36,48,2322 (c) The commission's certification of the results of any election is conclusive
23unless reviewed under s. 111.07 (8).
AB40-SA36,49,5 24(3) Whenever an election has been conducted under sub. (2) in which the ballots
25for representatives have been counted but in which no named representative is

1favored by a majority of the employees voting, the commission may, if requested by
2a party to the proceeding within 30 days from the date of the certification of the
3results of the election, conduct a runoff election. In that runoff election, the
4commission shall drop from the ballot the name of the representative who received
5the least number of votes at the original election.
AB40-SA36,49,18 6(4) While a collective bargaining agreement between a labor organization and
7an employer is in force under this subchapter, a petition for an election in the
8collective bargaining unit to which the agreement applies may be filed only during
9October in the calendar year prior to the expiration of that agreement. An election
10held under that petition may be held only if the petition is supported by proof that
11at least 30 percent of the employees in the collective bargaining unit desire a change
12or discontinuance of existing representation. Within 60 days of the time that an
13original petition is filed, another petition may be filed supported by proof that at least
1410 percent of the employees in the same collective bargaining unit desire a different
15representative. If a majority of the employees in the collective bargaining unit vote
16for a change or discontinuance of representation by any named representative, the
17decision takes effect upon expiration of any existing collective bargaining agreement
18between the employer and the existing representative.
AB40-SA36,49,20 19111.991 Unfair labor practices. (1) It is an unfair labor practice for an
20employer individually or in concert with others to do any of the following:
AB40-SA36,49,2221 (a) Interfere with, restrain, or coerce employees in the exercise of their rights
22guaranteed under s. 111.97.
AB40-SA36,50,1023 (b) Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, initiate, create, dominate,
24or interfere with the formation or administration of any labor or employee
25organization or contribute financial support to it. Except as provided in ss. 40.02 (22)

1(e) and 40.23 (1) (f) 4., no change in any law affecting the Wisconsin Retirement
2System under ch. 40 and no action by the employer that is authorized by such a law
3is a violation of this paragraph unless an applicable collective bargaining agreement
4specifically prohibits the change or action. No such change or action affects the
5continuing duty to bargain collectively regarding the Wisconsin Retirement System
6under ch. 40 to the extent required by s. 111.998. It is not an unfair labor practice
7for the employer to reimburse an employee at his or her prevailing wage rate for the
8time spent during the employee's regularly scheduled hours conferring with the
9employer's officers or agents and for attendance at commission or court hearings
10necessary for the administration of this subchapter.
AB40-SA36,50,1411 (c) Encourage or discourage membership in any labor organization by
12discrimination in regard to hiring, tenure, or other terms or conditions of
13employment. This paragraph does not apply to fair-share or maintenance of
14membership agreements.
AB40-SA36,50,2415 (d) Refuse to bargain collectively on matters set forth in s. 111.998 with a
16representative of a majority of its employees in an appropriate collective bargaining
17unit. Whenever the employer has a good faith doubt as to whether a labor
18organization claiming the support of a majority of its employees in an appropriate
19collective bargaining unit does in fact have that support, it may file with the
20commission a petition requesting an election as to that claim. The employer is not
21considered to have refused to bargain until an election has been held and the results
22of the election are certified to the employer by the commission. A violation of this
23paragraph includes the refusal to execute a collective bargaining agreement
24previously orally agreed upon.
AB40-SA36,51,5
1(e) Violate any collective bargaining agreement previously agreed upon by the
2parties with respect to wages, hours, and conditions of employment affecting the
3employees, including an agreement to arbitrate or to accept the terms of an
4arbitration award, when previously the parties have agreed to accept such award as
5final and binding upon them.
AB40-SA36,51,136 (f) Deduct labor organization dues from an employee's earnings, unless the
7employer has been presented with an individual order therefor, signed by the
8employee personally, and terminable by at least the end of any year of its life or
9earlier by the employee giving at least 30 but not more than 120 days' written notice
10of such termination to the employer and to the representative labor organization,
11except if there is a fair-share or maintenance of membership agreement in effect.
12The employer shall give notice to the labor organization of receipt of such notice of
13termination.
AB40-SA36,51,1714 (g) Use any moneys received for any purpose to discourage; to train any
15supervisor, management employee, or other employee to discourage; or to contract
16with any person for the purposes of discouraging employees in the exercise of their
17rights guaranteed under s. 111.97.
AB40-SA36,51,24 18(1m) Notwithstanding sub. (1), it is not an unfair labor practice for the board
19to implement changes in salaries or conditions of employment for members of the
20faculty or academic staff at one institution, and not for other members of the faculty
21or academic staff at another institution, but this may be done only if the differential
22treatment is based on comparisons with the compensation and working conditions
23of employees performing similar services for comparable higher education
24institutions or based upon other competitive factors.
AB40-SA36,52,2
1(2) It is unfair practice for an employee individually or in concert with others
2to do any of the following:
AB40-SA36,52,43 (a) Coerce or intimidate an employee in the enjoyment of the employee's legal
4rights, including those guaranteed under s. 111.97.
AB40-SA36,52,95 (b) Coerce, intimidate, or induce any officer or agent of the employer to interfere
6with any of the employer's employees in the enjoyment of their legal rights including
7those guaranteed under s. 111.97 or engage in any practice with regard to its
8employees which would constitute an unfair labor practice if undertaken by the
9officer or agent on the officer's or agent's own initiative.
AB40-SA36,52,1410 (c) Refuse to bargain collectively on matters specified in s. 111.998 with the
11authorized officer or agent of the employer that is the recognized or certified
12exclusive collective bargaining representative of employees in an appropriate
13collective bargaining unit. Such refusal to bargain shall include a refusal to execute
14a collective bargaining agreement previously orally agreed upon.
AB40-SA36,52,1815 (d) Violate the provisions of any written agreement with respect to terms and
16conditions of employment affecting employees, including an agreement to arbitrate
17or to accept the terms of an arbitration award, when previously the parties have
18agreed to accept such awards as final and binding upon them.
AB40-SA36,52,2019 (e) Engage in, induce, or encourage any employees to engage in a strike or a
20concerted refusal to work or perform their usual duties as employees.
AB40-SA36,52,2421 (f) Coerce or intimidate a supervisory employee, officer, or agent of the
22employer, working at the same trade or profession as the employer's employees, to
23induce the person to become a member of or act in concert with the labor organization
24of which the employee is a member.
AB40-SA36,53,4
1(3) It is an unfair labor practice for any person to do or cause to be done on
2behalf of or in the interest of employers or employees, or in connection with or to
3influence the outcome of any controversy as to employment relations, any act
4prohibited by subs. (1) and (2).
AB40-SA36,53,6 5(3m) This section does not interfere with a faculty member's right of academic
6freedom.
AB40-SA36,53,15 7(4) Any controversy concerning unfair labor practices may be submitted to the
8commission as provided in s. 111.07, except that the commission shall schedule a
9hearing on complaints involving alleged violations of sub. (2) (e) within 3 days after
10filing of a complaint, and notice shall be given to each party interested by service on
11the party personally, or by telegram, advising the party of the nature of the complaint
12and of the date, time, and place of hearing. The commission may appoint a substitute
13tribunal to hear unfair labor practice charges by either appointing a 3-member panel
14or submitting a 7-member panel to the parties and allowing each to strike 2 names.
15Any panel shall report its finding to the commission for appropriate action.
AB40-SA36,53,21 16111.992 Fair-share and maintenance of membership agreements. (1)
17(a) 1. No fair-share agreement is effective unless authorized by a referendum. The
18commission shall order a referendum whenever it receives a petition supported by
19proof that at least 30 percent of the employees, or supervisors specified in s. 111.98
20(5), in a collective bargaining unit desire that a fair-share agreement be entered into
21between the employer and a labor organization.
AB40-SA36,53,2322 2. For a fair-share agreement to be authorized, at least a majority of the eligible
23employees or supervisors voting in a referendum must vote in favor of the agreement.
AB40-SA36,54,224 (b) No maintenance of membership agreement may be effective unless
25authorized. For a maintenance of membership agreement to be authorized, the

1employer and the labor organization representing the employees must voluntarily
2agree to establish the maintenance of membership agreement.
AB40-SA36,54,213 (c) If a fair-share agreement is authorized in a referendum, the employer shall
4enter into a fair-share agreement with the labor organization named on the ballot
5in the referendum. If a maintenance of membership agreement is authorized under
6par. (b), the employer shall enter into the maintenance of membership agreement
7with the labor union that voluntarily agreed to establish the agreement. Each
8fair-share or maintenance of membership agreement shall require the employer to
9deduct the amount of dues as certified by the labor organization from the earnings
10of the employees or supervisors affected by the agreement and to pay the amount
11deducted to the labor organization. Unless the parties agree to an earlier date, a
12fair-share agreement takes effect 60 days after the commission certifies that the
13referendum vote authorized the fair-share agreement, and unless the parties agree
14to an earlier date a maintenance of membership agreement takes effect 60 days after
15the commission certifies that the parties have voluntarily agreed to establish the
16maintenance of membership agreement. The employer shall be held harmless
17against any claims, demands, suits, and other forms of liability made by employees
18or supervisors or local labor organizations which may arise for actions the employer
19takes in compliance with this section. All such lawful claims, demands, suits, and
20other forms of liability are the responsibility of the labor organization entering into
21the agreement.
AB40-SA36,55,222 (d) Under each fair-share or maintenance of membership agreement, an
23employee or supervisor who has religious convictions against dues payments to a
24labor organization may request the labor organization to pay his or her dues to a
25charity mutually agreed upon by the employee or supervisor and the labor

1organization. Any dispute under this paragraph may be submitted to the
2commission for adjudication.
AB40-SA36,55,15 3(2) (a) 1. Once authorized, a fair-share agreement continues, subject to the
4right of the employer or labor organization concerned to petition the commission to
5conduct a new referendum. If the commission receives a petition and finds that at
6least 30 percent of the employees or supervisors in the collective bargaining unit
7want to discontinue the fair-share agreement, the commission shall conduct a new
