Case 22-RC-13203
DECISION AND ORDER
The National Labor Relations Board has considered objections to an election held
April 14, 2011, and the Regional Director's report recommending disposition of them. The
election was conducted pursuant to a Stipulated Election Agreement among two groups of
employees, Group “A” (professional employees) and Group “B” (nonprofessional
employees). The professional employees in Group “A” voted on two questions: (1)
whether they wished to be included in a single unit with nonprofessional employees in
Group “B” and (2) which labor organization, if any, they wished to be represented by for
the purposes of collection-bargaining. The nonprofessional employees in Group “B” voted
on one question: which labor organization, if any, they wished to be represented by for
the purpose of collective-bargaining. The revised tally of ballots (on the question of
inclusion) shows 2 ballots cast in favor of inclusion with the nonprofessional employees, 1
ballot cast against inclusion, with no challenged ballots. The tally of ballots (on the
question of representation) shows 130 ballots cast for the Petitioner, 78 ballots cast for the
2
Intervenor,1 and 1 ballot cast against the participating labor organizations. There were 3
challenged ballots, an insufficient number to affect the results.
No exceptions have been filed to the Regional Director's report within the time
provided. Accordingly, the Board adopts the Regional Director's findings and
recommendations.
ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that this proceeding is remanded to the Regional Director for
Region 22 for further appropriate action consistent with his report.
Dated, Washington, D.C., June 21, 2011.
By direction of the Board:
