Borden and the Commonwealth Employment Relations Board, but unfortunately, the available court records don't provide enough details to explain what the specific workplace dispute was about or what employment issues were at stake.

However, this situation highlights an important point: when workplace disputes arise, it's crucial to maintain detailed documentation and ensure all relevant information is properly recorded.
