What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill allows employees of school districts, employees of cooperative

educational service agencies, and employees of technical college districts, if the

employees are not in managerial or supervisory positions, to collectively bargain over

wages, hours, and conditions of employment. This bill also allows the University of

Wisconsin System and employees to collectively bargain over wages, hours, and

conditions of employment. Finally, the bill allows faculty and academic staff of the

UW System to organize and to collectively bargain over wages, hours, and conditions

of employment. Under current law, public employers and employees are prohibited

from bargaining collectively except as expressly provided in the statutes.
