D.U.P. No. 80-26
Synopsis:
The Director of Unfair Practices declines to issue a complaint with respect to a Charge that the Board refused to negotiate in good faith by filing a notice of impasse with the Commission. The Director notes that the filing of a notice of impasse is not a per se unfair practice and concludes that the Charge did not describe totality of conduct which would be necessary for the issuance of a complaint. The Director also notes with the authority to investigate notices of impasse to determine whether an impasse exists, that a forum under N.J.A.C. 19:12-3.1 is provided to contest the existence of an impasse before the Director of Conciliation, and that litigation of this issue in an unfair practice forum would be inappropriate usurpation of the Director of Conciliation's power and frustrate the public policy of facilitating the prevention and prompt resolution of labor disputes.
