1(2) (a) Notwithstanding sub. (1), 2 or more collective bargaining units described
2under sub. (1) (a) to (p) may be combined into a single unit. If 2 or more collective
3bargaining units seek to combine into a single collective bargaining unit, the
4commission shall, upon the petition of at least 30 percent of the employees in each
5unit, hold an election to determine whether a majority of those employees voting in
6each unit desire to combine into a single unit. A combined collective bargaining unit
7shall be formed including all employees from each of those units in which a majority
8of the employees voting in the election approve a combined unit. The combined
9collective bargaining unit shall be formed immediately if there is no existing
10collective bargaining agreement in force in any of the units to be combined. If there
11is a collective bargaining agreement in force at the time of the election in any of the
12collective bargaining units to be combined, the combined unit shall be formed upon
13expiration of the last agreement for the units concerned.
AB726,21,214 (b) If 2 or more collective bargaining units have combined under par. (a), the
15commission shall, upon petition of at least 30 percent of the employees in any of the
16original units, hold an election of the employees in the original unit to determine
17whether the employees in that unit desire to withdraw from the combined collective
18bargaining unit. If a majority of the employees voting desire to withdraw from the
19combined collective bargaining unit, separate units consisting of the unit in which
20the election was held and a unit composed of the remainder of the combined unit shall
21be formed. The new collective bargaining units shall be formed immediately if there
22is no collective bargaining agreement in force for the combined unit. If there is a
23collective bargaining agreement in force for the combined collective bargaining unit,
24the new units shall be formed upon the expiration of the agreement. While there is
25a collective bargaining agreement in force for the combined collective bargaining

1unit, a petition for an election under this paragraph may be filed only during October
2in the calendar year prior to the expiration of the agreement.
AB726,21,4 3(3) The commission shall assign employees to the appropriate collective
4bargaining units described under sub. (1) or (2).
AB726,21,12 5(4) Any labor organization may petition for recognition as the exclusive
6representative of a collective bargaining unit described under sub. (1) or (2) in
7accordance with the election procedures under s. 111.990 if the petition is
8accompanied by a 30 percent showing of interest in the form of signed authorization
9cards. Any additional labor organization seeking to appear on the ballot shall file a
10petition within 60 days of the date of filing of the original petition and prove, through
11signed authorization cards, that at least 10 percent of the employees in the collective
12bargaining unit want it to be their representative.
AB726,21,21 13(5) Although academic staff supervisors are not considered employees for the
14purpose of this subchapter, the commission may consider a petition for a statewide
15collective bargaining unit consisting of academic staff supervisors, but the
16representative of the supervisors may not be affiliated with any labor organization
17representing employees. For purposes of this subsection, affiliation does not include
18membership in a national, state, county, or municipal federation of national or
19international labor organizations. The certified representative of the supervisors
20may not bargain collectively with respect to any matter other than wages and fringe
21benefits.
AB726,22,7 22111.990 Representatives and elections. (1) A representative chosen for the
23purposes of collective bargaining by a majority of the employees voting in a collective
24bargaining unit shall be the exclusive representative of all of the employees in such
25unit for the purposes of collective bargaining. Any individual employee, or any

1minority group of employees in any collective bargaining unit, may present any
2grievance to the employer in person, or through representatives of their own
3choosing, and the employer shall confer with the individual employee or group of
4employees with respect to the grievance if the majority representative has been
5afforded the opportunity to be present at the conference. Any adjustment resulting
6from such a conference may not be inconsistent with the conditions of employment
7established by the majority representative and the employer.
AB726,23,9 8(2) Whenever a question arises concerning the representation of employees in
9a collective bargaining unit, the commission shall determine the representation by
10taking a secret ballot of the employees and certifying in writing the results to the
11interested parties and to the board. There shall be included on any ballot for the
12election of representatives the names of all labor organizations having an interest
13in representing the employees participating in the election as indicated in petitions
14filed with the commission. The name of any existing representative shall be included
15on the ballot without the necessity of filing a petition. The commission may exclude
16from the ballot one who, at the time of the election, stands deprived of his or her rights
17under this subchapter by reason of a prior adjudication of his or her having engaged
18in an unfair labor practice. The ballot shall be so prepared as to permit a vote against
19representation by anyone named on the ballot. For elections in a collective
20bargaining unit composed of employees who are members of the faculty or academic
21staff, whenever more than one representative qualifies to appear on the ballot, the
22ballot shall be prepared to provide separate votes on 2 questions. The first question
23shall be: "Shall the employees of the ... (name of collective bargaining unit)
24participate in collective bargaining?". The 2nd question shall be: "If the employees
25of the ... (name of collective bargaining unit) elect to participate in collective

1bargaining, which labor organization do you favor to act as representative of the
2employees?". The 2nd question shall not include a choice for no representative. All
3employees in the collective bargaining unit may vote on both questions. Unless a
4majority of those employees voting in the election vote to participate in collective
5bargaining, no votes for a particular representative may be counted. If a majority
6of those employees voting in the election vote to participate in collective bargaining,
7the ballots for representatives shall be counted. The commission's certification of the
8results of any election is conclusive as to the findings included therein unless
9reviewed under s. 111.07 (8).
AB726,23,16 10(3) Whenever an election has been conducted under sub. (2) in which a majority
11of the employees voting indicate a desire to participate in collective bargaining but
12in which no named representative is favored by a majority of the employees voting,
13the commission may, if requested by a party to the proceeding within 30 days from
14the date of the certification of the results of the election, conduct a runoff election.
15In that runoff election, the commission shall drop from the ballot the name of the
16representative who received the least number of votes at the original election.
AB726,24,4 17(4) While a collective bargaining agreement between a labor organization and
18an employer is in force under this subchapter, a petition for an election in the
19collective bargaining unit to which the agreement applies may only be filed during
20October in the calendar year prior to the expiration of that agreement. An election
21held under that petition may be held only if the petition is supported by proof that
22at least 30 percent of the employees in the collective bargaining unit desire a change
23or discontinuance of existing representation. Within 60 days of the time that an
24original petition is filed, another petition may be filed supported by proof that at least
2510 percent of the employees in the same collective bargaining unit desire a different

1representative. If a majority of the employees in the collective bargaining unit vote
2for a change or discontinuance of representation by any named representative, the
3decision takes effect upon expiration of any existing collective bargaining agreement
4between the employer and the existing representative.
AB726,24,6 5111.991 Unfair labor practices. (1) It is an unfair labor practice for an
6employer individually or in concert with others:
AB726,24,87 (a) To interfere with, restrain, or coerce employees in the exercise of their rights
8guaranteed under s. 111.97.
AB726,24,219 (b) Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, to initiate, create,
10dominate, or interfere with the formation or administration of any labor or employee
11organization or contribute financial support to it. Except as provided in ss. 40.02 (22)
12(e) and 40.23 (1) (f) 4., no change in any law affecting the Wisconsin Retirement
13System under ch. 40 and no action by the employer that is authorized by such a law
14is a violation of this paragraph unless an applicable collective bargaining agreement
15specifically prohibits the change or action. No such change or action affects the
16continuing duty to bargain collectively regarding the Wisconsin Retirement System
17under ch. 40 to the extent required by s. 111.998. It is not an unfair labor practice
18for the employer to reimburse an employee at his or her prevailing wage rate for the
19time spent during the employee's regularly scheduled hours conferring with the
20employer's officers or agents and for attendance at commission or court hearings
21necessary for the administration of this subchapter.
AB726,24,2522 (c) To encourage or discourage membership in any labor organization by
23discrimination in regard to hiring, tenure, or other terms or conditions of
24employment. This paragraph does not apply to fair-share or maintenance of
25membership agreements.
AB726,25,10
1(d) To refuse to bargain collectively on matters set forth in s. 111.998 with a
2representative of a majority of its employees in an appropriate collective bargaining
3unit. Whenever the employer has a good faith doubt as to whether a labor
4organization claiming the support of a majority of its employees in an appropriate
5collective bargaining unit does in fact have that support, it may file with the
6commission a petition requesting an election as to that claim. The employer is not
7considered to have refused to bargain until an election has been held and the results
8of the election are certified to the employer by the commission. A violation of this
9paragraph includes the refusal to execute a collective bargaining agreement
10previously orally agreed upon.
AB726,25,1511 (e) To violate any collective bargaining agreement previously agreed upon by
12the parties with respect to wages, hours, and conditions of employment affecting the
13employees, including an agreement to arbitrate or to accept the terms of an
14arbitration award, when previously the parties have agreed to accept such award as
15final and binding upon them.
AB726,25,2316 (f) To deduct labor organization dues from an employee's earnings, unless the
17employer has been presented with an individual order therefor, signed by the
18employee personally, and terminable by at least the end of any year of its life or
19earlier by the employee giving at least 30 but not more than 120 days written notice
20of such termination to the employer and to the representative labor organization,
21except if there is a fair-share or maintenance of membership agreement in effect.
22The employer shall give notice to the labor organization of receipt of such notice of
23termination.
AB726,26,5 24(1m) Notwithstanding sub. (1), it is not an unfair labor practice for the board
25to implement changes in salaries or conditions of employment for members of the

1faculty or academic staff at one institution, and not for other members of the faculty
2or academic staff at another institution, but this may be done only if the differential
3treatment is based on comparisons with the compensation and working conditions
4of employees performing similar services for comparable higher education
5institutions or based upon other competitive factors.
AB726,26,6 6(2) It is unfair practice for an employee individually or in concert with others:
AB726,26,87 (a) To coerce or intimidate an employee in the enjoyment of the employee's legal
8rights, including those guaranteed under s. 111.97.
AB726,26,139 (b) To coerce, intimidate, or induce any officer or agent of the employer to
10interfere with any of the employer's employees in the enjoyment of their legal rights
11including those guaranteed under s. 111.97 or to engage in any practice with regard
12to its employees which would constitute an unfair labor practice if undertaken by the
13officer or agent on the officer's or agent's own initiative.
AB726,26,1814 (c) To refuse to bargain collectively on matters specified in s. 111.998 with the
15authorized officer or agent of the employer that is the recognized or certified
16exclusive collective bargaining representative of employees specified in s. 111.96 (8)
17in an appropriate collective bargaining unit. Such refusal to bargain shall include
18a refusal to execute a collective bargaining agreement previously orally agreed upon.
AB726,26,2219 (d) To violate the provisions of any written agreement with respect to terms and
20conditions of employment affecting employees, including an agreement to arbitrate
21or to accept the terms of an arbitration award, when previously the parties have
22agreed to accept such awards as final and binding upon them.
AB726,26,2423 (e) To engage in, induce, or encourage any employees to engage in a strike or
24a concerted refusal to work or perform their usual duties as employees.
AB726,27,4
1(f) To coerce or intimidate a supervisory employee, officer, or agent of the
2employer, working at the same trade or profession as the employer's employees, to
3induce the person to become a member of or act in concert with the labor organization
4of which the employee is a member
AB726,27,8 5(3) It is an unfair labor practice for any person to do or cause to be done on
6behalf of or in the interest of employers or employees, or in connection with or to
7influence the outcome of any controversy as to employment relations, any act
8prohibited by subs. (1) and (2).
AB726,27,17 9(4) Any controversy concerning unfair labor practices may be submitted to the
10commission as provided in s. 111.07, except that the commission shall schedule a
11hearing on complaints involving alleged violations of sub. (2) (e) within 3 days after
12filing of a complaint, and notice shall be given to each party interested by service on
13the party personally, or by telegram, advising the party of the nature of the complaint
14and of the date, time, and place of hearing. The commission may appoint a substitute
15tribunal to hear unfair labor practice charges by either appointing a 3-member panel
16or submitting a 7-member panel to the parties and allowing each to strike 2 names.
17Any such panel shall report its finding to the commission for appropriate action.
AB726,28,2 18111.992 Fair-share and maintenance of membership agreements. (1)
19(a) No fair-share or maintenance of membership agreement may become effective
20unless authorized by a referendum. The commission shall order a referendum
21whenever it receives a petition supported by proof that at least 30 percent of the
22employees or supervisors specified in s. 111.98 (5) in a collective bargaining unit
23desire that a fair-share or maintenance of membership agreement be entered into
24between the employer and a labor organization. A petition may specify that a

1referendum is requested on a maintenance of membership agreement only, in which
2case the ballot shall be limited to that question.
AB726,28,93 (b) For a fair-share agreement to be authorized, at least two-thirds of the
4eligible employees or supervisors voting in a referendum shall vote in favor of the
5agreement. For a maintenance of membership agreement to be authorized, at least
6a majority of the eligible employees or supervisors voting in a referendum shall vote
7in favor of the agreement. In a referendum on a fair-share agreement, if less than
8two-thirds but more than one-half of the eligible employees or supervisors vote in
9favor of the agreement, a maintenance of membership agreement is authorized.
AB726,28,2310 (c) If a fair-share or maintenance of membership agreement is authorized in
11a referendum, the employer shall enter into such an agreement with the labor
12organization named on the ballot in the referendum. Each fair-share or
13maintenance of membership agreement shall contain a provision requiring the
14employer to deduct the amount of dues as certified by the labor organization from the
15earnings of the employees or supervisors affected by the agreement and to pay the
16amount so deducted to the labor organization. Unless the parties agree to an earlier
17date, the agreement shall take effect 60 days after certification by the commission
18that the referendum vote authorized the agreement. The employer shall be held
19harmless against any claims, demands, suits and other forms of liability made by
20employees or supervisors or local labor organizations which may arise for actions
21taken by the employer in compliance with this section. All such lawful claims,
22demands, suits and other forms of liability are the responsibility of the labor
23organization entering into the agreement.
AB726,29,524 (d) Under each fair-share or maintenance of membership agreement, an
25employee or supervisor who has religious convictions against dues payments to a

1labor organization based on teachings or tenets of a church or religious body of which
2he or she is a member shall, on request to the labor organization, have his or her dues
3paid to a charity mutually agreed upon by the employee or supervisor and the labor
4organization. Any dispute concerning this paragraph may be submitted to the
5commission for adjudication.
AB726,29,20 6(2) (a) Once authorized, a fair-share or maintenance of membership
7agreement shall continue in effect, subject to the right of the employer or labor
8organization concerned to petition the commission to conduct a new referendum.
9Such a petition must be supported by proof that at least 30 percent of the employees
10or supervisors in the collective bargaining unit desire that the fair-share or
11maintenance of membership agreement be discontinued. Upon so finding, the
12commission shall conduct a new referendum. If the continuance of the fair-share or
13maintenance of membership agreement is approved in the referendum by at least the
14percentage of eligible voting employees or supervisors required for its initial
15authorization, it shall be continued in effect, subject to the right of the employer or
16labor organization to later initiate a further vote following the procedure prescribed
17in this subsection. If the continuation of the agreement is not supported in any
18referendum, it is considered terminated at the termination of the collective
19bargaining agreement, or one year from the date of the certification of the result of
20the referendum, whichever is earlier.
AB726,30,421 (b) The commission shall declare any fair-share or maintenance of
22membership agreement suspended upon such conditions and for such time as the
23commission decides whenever it finds that the labor organization involved has
24refused on the basis of race, color, sexual orientation, or creed to receive as a member
25any employee or supervisor in the collective bargaining unit involved, and the

1agreement shall be made subject to the findings and orders of the commission. Any
2of the parties to the agreement, or any employee or supervisor covered under the
3agreement, may come before the commission, as provided in s. 111.07, and petition
4the commission to make such a finding.
AB726,30,7 5(3) A stipulation for a referendum executed by an employer and a labor
6organization may not be filed until after the representation election has been held
7and the results certified.
AB726,30,10 8(4) The commission may, under rules adopted for that purpose, appoint as its
9agent an official of a state agency whose employees are entitled to vote in a
10referendum to conduct a referendum under this section.
AB726,30,15 11111.993 Grievance arbitration. (1) Parties to the dispute pertaining to the
12interpretation of a collective bargaining agreement may agree in writing to have the
13commission or any other appointing state agency serve as arbitrator or may
14designate any other competent, impartial, and disinterested persons to so serve.
15Such arbitration proceedings shall be governed by ch. 788.
AB726,30,21 16(2) The board shall charge an institution for the employer's share of the cost
17related to grievance arbitration under sub. (1) for any arbitration that involves one
18or more employees of the institution. Each institution so charged shall pay the
19amount that the board charges from the appropriation account or accounts used to
20pay the salary of the grievant. Funds received under this subsection shall be credited
21to the appropriation account under s. 20.545 (1) (km).
AB726,31,2 22111.994 Mediation. The commission may appoint any competent, impartial,
23disinterested person to act as mediator in any labor dispute either upon its own
24initiative or upon the request of one of the parties to the dispute. It is the function
25of a mediator to bring the parties together voluntarily under such favorable auspices

1as will tend to effectuate settlement of the dispute, but neither the mediator nor the
2commission shall have any power of compulsion in mediation proceedings.
AB726,31,11 3111.995 Fact-finding. (1) If a dispute has not been settled after a reasonable
4period of negotiation and after the settlement procedures, if any, established by the
5parties have been exhausted, the representative that has been certified by the
6commission after an election, as the exclusive representative of employees in an
7appropriate bargaining unit, and the employer, its officers, and agents, after a
8reasonable period of negotiation, are deadlocked with respect to any dispute between
9them arising in the collective bargaining process, either party may petition the
10commission, in writing, to initiate fact-finding under this section, and to make
11recommendations to resolve the deadlock.
AB726,31,17 12(2) Upon receipt of a petition to initiate fact-finding, the commission shall
13make an investigation with or without a formal hearing, to determine whether a
14deadlock in fact exists. The commission shall certify the results of the investigation.
15If the commission decides that fact-finding should be initiated, it shall appoint a
16qualified, disinterested person or, when jointly requested by the parties, a 3-member
17panel to function as a fact finder.
AB726,32,6 18(3) The fact finder may establish dates and place of hearings and shall conduct
19the hearings under rules established by the commission. Upon request, the
20commission shall issue subpoenas for hearings conducted by the fact finder. The fact
21finder may administer oaths. Upon completion of the hearing, the fact finder shall
22make written findings of fact and recommendations for solution of the dispute and
23shall cause the same to be served on the parties and the commission. In making
