I.R. No. 2009-14
Synopsis:
A Commission Designee denies an application for interim relief on a charge alleging that Brick Township violated the New Jersey Employer-Employee Relations Act by announcing the layoff of many employees in the unit represented by TWU, Local 225. The Union alleged the Township selected titles in its unit for layoff in retaliation for not agreeing to a new collective agreement. The Township disputed the Union’s allegations and argued the layoff and layoff selections were based upon a budget shortfall and business considerations. Noting the dispute over material facts, it was not possible to conclude that there was a substantial likelihood of success on the merits of the charge. Consequently, the application was denied.
