my info comes from n.j. state law...the new jersey employer-employee relations act...and the public employee relations committee.
in n.j. the employees of all state depts. agencies and commissions are governed by contracts which are negotiated between the individual unions and the team of negotiators under the auspice of the office of the gov.
no h.r. dept would ever be permitted to negotiate a contract in this state! h.r. depts work with union shop stewards to insure that all parties follow contract provisions.
how many unions and contracts exist in your state institution?
