This paper examines the binding decisions of the Federal Service Impasses Panel. (Panel) The Panel has the authority to mediate and ultimately decide the terms of a labor agreement should the federal agencies and labor unions be unable to do so bilaterally. This paper presents descriptive data on who wins and who loses with the Federal Service Impasses Panel. Background information on the history of dispute resolution machinery in the federal government is outlined. The data was collected from a content analysis of 307 of 311 binding cases decided by the Panel from 1/79 through 7/87. The paper chronicles the types of procedures used by the Panel, the nature of issues at impasse and who wins. Also, the number and types of arguments used by the parties in support of their respective positions with the Panel are examined. A number of conclusions are drawn from the analysis. (1) The Panel uses a number of different types of dispute machinery including conventional and final offer procedures. (2) Management won almost sixty percent of all issues brought before the Panel (3) Labor and management tend to use a variety of different arguments to support their positions. (4) Neither labor nor management appeared very interested in the impact of their proposals on the general public. Future research may wish to investigate the specific reasons for management success.
