WAUKESHA, Wis. — The Waukesha Board of Police and Fire Commissioners voted 3-1 on Monday, October 14th to demote Jesse Alba from the post of fire chief to firefighter.
The decision to demote Alba was detailed in an 18-page document released Monday. The board tried to answer seven key questions that talked about the board’s ultimate decision to demote. In city documents, the board of commissioners said Alba’s actions were “egregious” — and that his actions created an “adversarial workplace situation.”
Alba was accused of violating the anti-harassment policy and the Waukesha Fire Department’s Code of Conduct. He is alleged to have asked a woman in his department to quit because he was attracted to her and it was distracting to him.
