ORDER
Employer’s Request for Review of the Regional Director’s Decision and
Direction of Election is denied as it raises no substantial issues warranting review.1

1 Although the Regional Director applied the correct standard to the facts of this case, he
incorrectly placed the burden of proof on the Employer to prove that the petitioned-for unit is not
appropriate. In an appropriate unit determination under Section 9(b), the Employer does not bear
the burden of proving that the petitioned-for unit is inappropriate, unless the unit is a
presumptively appropriate unit (e.g., a single facility or employerwide unit). See Allen Health
Care Services, 332 NLRB 1308, 1309 (2000).
