Biographical notes:

The Personnel Commission was created by Chapter 196, Laws of 1977, to act as an administrative appeals body for certain state employee grievances and equal rights complaints. Its quasi-judicial functions were previously performed by the Personnel Board (WIHV85-A773), which dates back to the Civil Service Commission (WIHV87-A1624) established in 1905, and its equal rights functions by the Industry, Labor, and Human Relations Commission (WIHV85-A779). The 2003-2005 biennial budget abolished the Personnel Commission and split its duties between the Wisconsin Employment Relations Commission (WIHV85-A1988) and the Equal Rights Division of the Department of Workforce Development (WIHV96-A859).

The commission hears a variety of appeals under Sec. 230.44 and 230.45, Wis. Stats., including decisions of the administrator of the Division of Personnel, denials of benefits under the hazardous employment provisions, decisions of county personnel administering welfare aids, alleged wrongful disciplinary actions suffered by employees not subject to union contracts, certain appointment transactions, and discrimination complaints. It also serves as final step arbitrator for employee grievances relating to conditions of employment and reviews hearing examiner's decisions on certain nonbargainable transactions.
