PANJ negotiates labor contracts with the
New Jersey Judicial Branch for the employees who are represented
by us. PANJ has two bargaining units called the Case-related
Professional unit and the Professional Supervisor's unit.
In the Case-related unit are approximately 1,800 Probation
Officers, Senior Probation Officers, Master Probation Officers,
and other Professional titles performing similar functions. The Professional
Supervisors are less numerous but are more diverse. That
unit is composed of approximately 800 individuals such as
Principal Probation Officers, Team Leaders, Supervising
Probation Officers, and many others.
PANJ has two negotiation teams, one for each unit. They are composed of
employees who actually work in the unit being negotiated for, so they
know the meaning of the contract language. They also have a direct
connection with what is agreed to at the negotiation table. These two
teams use the services of our lead attorney and his staff as spokespersons
and for advice in this area.
The leaders of the two negotiation teams are Dwight Covaleskie,
First Vice-President, for the Case-related unit, and Bradley Fairchild,
First Vice President Supervisory Unit, for the Professional Supervisors.
