- Borough of Keyport v. International Union of Operating Engineers – Supreme Court of New Jersey holds that negotiation would have significantly interfered with management determination of governmental policy, and therefore municipalities’ imposition on certain units of public employees mandatory, but temporary, layoffs, in the form of a reduced number of work days over a specified period of time was non-negotiable, such that municipalities did not violate Employer-Employee Relations Act by imposing layoffs without negotiating with representatives from unions for public employees.
