Jul. 17, 2020) Copy Citation UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BEFORE THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD KUMHO TIRES Employer and Case 10-RC-246475 UNITED STEEL, PAPER AND FORESTRY, RUBBER, MANUFACTURING, ENERGY, ALLIED INDUSTRIAL AND SERVICE WORKERS INTERNATIONAL UNION AFL-CIO, CLC Petitioner ORDER The Employer’s and the Petitioner’s Requests for Review of the Acting Regional Director’s Decision on Exceptions to the Hearing Officer’s Report are denied as they raise no substantial issues warranting review.1 JOHN F. RING, CHAIRMAN MARVIN E. KAPLAN, MEMBER WILLIAM J. EMANUEL, MEMBER Dated, Washington, D.C., July 17, 2020. 1 In denying review, we reaffirm the principles of our decision in Choc-ola Bottlers, Inc., 192 NLRB 1247 (1971), enf. denied 478 F.2d 461 (7th Cir. 1973), and find that under those principles, the Acting Regional Director properly decided to open and count the ballot of voter Tocarra Tate. In denying review of the Acting Regional Director’s finding that Jung Jo was not eligible to vote, we additionally rely upon the fact that, although his position is administratively located within the maintenance department, Jo’s work—monitoring a computer to identify problems with the automated production unit—is not traditional maintenance work.
