H.O. No. 82-2

Synopsis:

In a Clarification of Unit Petition filed by the City of Newark, a Hearing Officer of the Public Employment Relations Commission recommended the removal of the Fire Deputy Chiefs from the Association's negotiations unit.

The Hearing Officer found that the Deputy Chiefs were managerial executives within the meaning of the Act, therefore that position was inappropriate for inclusion in any negotiations unit. The Hearing Officer also found that, independent of the managerial issue, a substantial actual or potential conflict of interest would exist if said title were included in the Association's unit.

A Hearing Officer's Report and Recommendations is not a final administrative determination of the Public Employment Relations Commission. The report is submitted to the Director of Representation who reviews the Report, any exceptions thereto filed by the parties and the record, and issues a decision which may adopt, reject or modify the Hearing Officer's findings of fact and/or conclusions of law. The Director's decision is binding upon the parties unless a request for review is filed before the Commission.
