Description
This is a labor relations case involving a dispute between the Milwaukee Professional Firefighters, Local 215, IAFF, AFL-CIO
(hereinafter "Association") and the city of Milwaukee (hereinafter "City"). The source of the controversy is certain orders
issued on December 6, 1974, by Fire Chief William Stamm which called for the implementation of new rules regarding the scheduling
of special duty overtime work, vacation days and off days for the firefighters for the years 1975 and 1976. The Association
challenged the orders claiming they were issued in violation of a collective bargaining agreement between the parties, which
was effective for the period of November 4, 1973 to February 28, 1975. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the parties
submitted the dispute to final and binding arbitration. The arbitrator concluded the orders did violate the agreement and
ordered that the scheduling of duty in the fire department for 1975 be conducted in the same manner as it had been for the
year 1974. The arbitrator's award was confirmed by the circuit court, and thereafter the circuit court found the City and
Chief Stamm in contempt for failing to observe the court's judgment confirming the award. In order to consider the issues raised in this case it is necessary to understand the complicated system of work scheduling
within the Milwaukee Fire Department and to review the factual and legal circumstances which led to this appeal by the City
and Chief Stamm.
