Borough of Madison v. International Brotherhood of Teamsters Local 469, 42 NJPER ¶ 138 (2016)
Mar 31, 2016OUTCOME: Prevailed
Upon considering a municipal employer' s request, the New Jersey Public Employment Relations Commission ("PERC") restrained arbitration of a grievance. The grievance disputed the employer' s failure to ... hire/promote a certain employee to a meter reader position because that employee lacked a commercial driver' s license. PERC reasoned that allowing an arbitrator to consider the grievance would significantly interfere with the employer' s policy-making power.
