The Division of Compensation and Labor Relations (DCLR) negotiates and administers collective bargaining agreements with nineteen bargaining units representing 35,000 state employees, develops and administers pay and benefits systems for 6,400 non-represented employees, and represents the state in grievance arbitration cases. The division also maintains a labor market survey research program that investigates external market comparable data for collective bargaining and pay range assignment purposes, and collects and reports on a variety of state workforce demographic summaries. The division also develops the compensation reserve recommendation for the governor's biennial operating budget, ensures state agency compliance with the Family Medical Leave Act and provides training to hundreds of management/ supervisory staff in basic and advanced labor-management relations and state/union contract orientation, administration, and interpretation. The Division provides staff support to the Labor-Management Cooperation program http://workingtogether.state.wi.us
