AB150,1334,2122 111.70 (1) (a) "Collective bargaining" means the performance of the mutual
23obligation of a municipal employer, through its officers and agents, and the
24representatives of its employes, to meet and confer at reasonable times, in good faith,
25with the intention of reaching an agreement, or to resolve questions arising under

1such an agreement, with respect to wages, hours and conditions of employment, and
2with respect to a requirement of the municipal employer for a municipal employe to
3perform law enforcement and fire fighting services under s. 61.66, except as provided
4in sub. (4) (m) and s. 40.81 (3), except that a municipal employer that is a school
5district is not required to meet and confer concerning any decision to create a
6performance recognition plan under s. 118.39 or concerning the amount of any
7performance recognition award made under such a plan,
and except that a municipal
8employer shall not meet and confer with respect to any proposal to diminish or
9abridge the rights guaranteed to municipal employes under ch. 164. The duty to
10bargain, however, does not compel either party to agree to a proposal or require the
11making of a concession. Collective bargaining includes the reduction of any
12agreement reached to a written and signed document. The employer shall not be
13required to bargain on subjects reserved to management and direction of the
14governmental unit except insofar as the manner of exercise of such functions affects
15the wages, hours and conditions of employment of the employes. In creating this
16subchapter the legislature recognizes that the public employer must exercise its
17powers and responsibilities to act for the government and good order of the
18municipality, its commercial benefit and the health, safety and welfare of the public
19to assure orderly operations and functions within its jurisdiction, subject to those
20rights secured to public employes by the constitutions of this state and of the United
21States and by this subchapter.

13bargaining units to which subd. 5s. applies, has not been settled after a reasonable
14period of negotiation and after mediation by the commission under subd. 3. and other
15any settlement procedures, if any, established by the parties have been exhausted,
16and the parties are deadlocked with respect to any dispute between them over wages,
17hours and conditions of employment to be included in a new collective bargaining
18agreement, either party, or the parties jointly, may petition the commission, in
19writing, to initiate compulsory, final and binding arbitration, as provided in this
20paragraph. At the time the petition is filed, the petitioning party shall submit in
21writing to the other party and the commission its preliminary final offer containing
22its latest proposals on all issues in dispute. Within 14 calendar days of the date of
23that submission, the other party shall submit in writing its preliminary final offer
24on all disputed issues to the petitioning party and the commission. If a petition is

1filed jointly, both parties shall exchange their preliminary final offers in writing and
2submit copies to the commission at the time the petition is filed.

AB150,1337,224 111.70 (4) (cm) 6. a. Upon receipt of a petition to initiate arbitration, the
5commission shall make an investigation, with or without a formal hearing, to
6determine whether arbitration should be commenced. If in determining whether an
7impasse exists the commission finds that the procedures set forth in this paragraph
8have not been complied with and such compliance would tend to result in a
9settlement, it may order such compliance before ordering arbitration. The validity
10of any arbitration award or collective bargaining agreement shall not be affected by
11failure to comply with such procedures.
Prior to the close of the investigation each
12party shall submit in writing to the commission its single final offer containing its
13final proposals on all issues in dispute that are subject to interest arbitration under
14this subdivision or under subd. 5s. in collective bargaining units to which subd. 5s.
15applies. If a party fails to submit a single, ultimate final offer, the commission shall
16close the investigation based on the last written position of the party. The municipal
17employer may not submit a qualified economic offer under subd. 5s. after the close
18of the investigation. Such final offers may include only mandatory subjects of
19bargaining, except that a permissive subject of bargaining may be included by a
20party if the other party does not object and shall then be treated as a mandatory
21subject. No later than such time, the parties shall also submit to the commission a
22stipulation, in writing, with respect to all matters which are agreed upon for
23inclusion in the new or amended collective bargaining agreement. The commission,
24after receiving a report from its investigator and determining that arbitration should
25be commenced, shall issue an order requiring arbitration and immediately submit

1to the parties a list of 7 arbitrators. Upon receipt of such list, the parties shall
2alternately strike names until a single name is left, who shall be appointed as
3arbitrator. The petitioning party shall notify the commission in writing of the
4identity of the arbitrator selected. Upon receipt of such notice, the commission shall
5formally appoint the arbitrator and submit to him or her the final offers of the
6parties. The final offers shall be considered public documents and shall be available
7from the commission. In lieu of a single arbitrator and upon request of both parties,
8the commission shall appoint a tripartite arbitration panel consisting of one member
9selected by each of the parties and a neutral person designated by the commission
10who shall serve as a chairperson. An arbitration panel has the same powers and
11duties as provided in this section for any other appointed arbitrator, and all
12arbitration decisions by such panel shall be determined by majority vote. In lieu of
13selection of the arbitrator by the parties and upon request of both parties, the
14commission shall establish a procedure for randomly selecting names of arbitrators.
15Under the procedure, the commission shall submit a list of 7 arbitrators to the
16parties. Each party shall strike one name from the list. From the remaining 5
17names, the commission shall randomly appoint an arbitrator. Unless both parties
18to an arbitration proceeding otherwise agree in writing, every individual whose
19name is submitted by the commission for appointment as an arbitrator shall be a
20resident of this state at the time of submission and every individual who is
21designated as an arbitration panel chairperson shall be a resident of this state at the
22time of designation.

AB150,1338,2024 111.70 (4) (d) 2. a. The commission shall determine the appropriate bargaining
25unit for the purpose of collective bargaining and shall whenever possible, unless

1otherwise required under this subchapter,
avoid fragmentation by maintaining as
2few units as practicable in keeping with the size of the total municipal work force.
3In making such a determination, the commission may decide whether, in a particular
4case, the employes in the same or several departments, divisions, institutions, crafts,
5professions or other occupational groupings constitute a unit. Before making its
6determination, the commission may provide an opportunity for the employes
7concerned to determine, by secret ballot, whether or not they desire to be established
8as a separate collective bargaining unit. The commission shall not decide, however,
9that any unit is appropriate if the unit includes both professional employes and
10nonprofessional employes, unless a majority of the professional employes vote for
11inclusion in the unit. The commission shall not decide that any unit is appropriate
12if the unit includes both craft and noncraft employes unless a majority of the craft
13employes vote for inclusion in the unit. The commission shall place the professional
14employes who are assigned to perform any services at a charter school, as defined in
15s. 115.001 (1), in a separate collective bargaining unit from a unit that includes any
16other professional employes whenever at least 30% of those professional employes
17request an election to be held to determine that issue and a majority of the
18professional employes at the charter school who cast votes in the election decide to
19be represented in a separate collective bargaining unit.
Any vote taken under this
