and Case 13-WH-256609
METROPOLITAN ALLIANCE OF POLICE
Petitioner
CERTIFICATION OF REPRESENTATIVE AS BONA FIDE
UNDER SECTION 7(b) OF THE FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT OF 1938
On February 19, 2020, the Metropolitan Alliance of Police (the Petitioner) filed
with the Regional Director for Region 13 of the National Labor Relations Board a
request for certification of representative as bona fide under Section 7(b) of the Fair
Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA), 29 U.S.C. § 207(b).
On February 25, 2020, the Regional Director for Region 13 served on the parties
a Notice to Show Cause why the Board should not grant the request. No response was
filed. As the Region’s investigation revealed that the Petitioner is the recognized
exclusive collective-bargaining representative of the unit employees, the Regional
Director recommended to the Board that the requested certification be issued.
No party having shown cause why the requested certification should not be
issued, the National Labor Relations Board certifies that the Metropolitan Alliance of
2
Police is a bona fide representative, for purposes of Section 7(b) of the FLSA, of the
employees of the Village of Wheeling in the following unit:1
Included: All regular full-time employees of the Village of Wheeling
in the following titles: Community Service Officer; Dispatcher;
Record Clerk. All regular part-time (over 20 hours per week)
employees of the Village of Wheeling in the following title:

and supervisory employees as defined by the Act, and all other

A certificate of representative as bona fide for purposes of the FLSA does not
necessarily establish the certified organization’s right to be recognized as the exclusive
bargaining representative under the provisions of the National Labor Relations Act. See
County of Alameda, 322 NLRB 614 (1996).
