THE FEDERAL SERVICE IMPASSES PANEL
FINAL ACTIONS

The Federal Service Impasses Panel is the last step in federal sector collective bargaining -- the substitute for the strike and lockout in the private sector. Many of the negotiation impasses brought to the Panel are successfully settled with Panel assistance. If, however, an impasse is not voluntarily settled, the Panel takes final action which may include directing the parties to another procedure or imposing settlement terms. These typically occur through the issuance of a "Decision and Order" if the impasse was considered by the Panel as a whole, or an "Opinion and Decision", if a Panel Member or staff person was designated to help resolve the dispute. Below are both of these final actions.
