I.R. No. 82-7

Synopsis:

The Commission's designee has denied a request for interim relief from AFSCME Council 52.

There is currently an election campaign pending among the employees of Hudson County. One of the unios campaigning to represent these employees is AFSCME Council 52. AFSCME filed two unfai practice charges and an Order to Show Cause against Hudson County and Teamsters Local 286. It was alleged that AFSCME's representatives were denied equal access to the facilities of the County during the current election campaign. The Order to Show Cause was denied on the basis that there are other remedies available to right the harm alleged and similarly there are more appropriate forums than an unfair practice interim relief proceeding to right these harms. Specifically, the charging party may apply to the Director of Representation to have these same charges block the election until there is a final determination of the charges and, further, even after the election is held under the Commission's rules the Director of Representation may set aside the result of an election if the facts so warrant.
