Contract Mediation
ATTENTION: IOWAPERB.IOWA.GOV IS MOVING
On July 1, 2024, PERB duties were assigned to the Emploment Appeal Board (EAB). Effective December 3, iowaperb.iowa.gov will no longer be available and all information will be found at the EAB's website, eab.iowa.gov.
PERB's professional staff and board members serve as mediators to assist labor and management in the resolution of bargaining impasses. PERB also trains ad hoc mediators and uses the services of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Services (FMCS) to provide mediation services for PERB. Approximately 95% of all bargaining impasses have been resolved without resorting to binding interest arbitration.
