NJ Supreme Court: Jersey City teachers can be paid by BOE to do full-time union work
By John Heinis/Hudson County View
“We do not share the Appellate Division’s view that the Board’s agreement to the disputed provisions exceeded its statutory grant of authority. In the Education Code, the Legislature empowered boards of education to make rules governing the compensation of teachers … and to fix ‘the payment of salary in cases of absence not constituting sick leave, ” today’s unanimous ruling says.
“The Legislature thus authorized the Board to grant a paid leave to the releasees to allow them to attend to labor relations work pursuant to the CNA. Moreover, because the releasees’ efforts encourage cooperative labor relations and facilitate the early resolution of employer-employee disputes, the CNA’s release time provisions facilitate the Board’s management of the public schools pursuant to N.J.S.A. 18A:11-1(c).”
