(a) Determining appropriate unit. (1) Any unit may consist of all of the employees of the public employer, or any department, division, section or area, or party or combination thereof, if found to be appropriate by the board, except as otherwise provided in the act or these rules. (2) In considering whether a unit is appropriate, the provisions of K.S.A. 75-4327(e) and whether the proposed unit of the public employees is a distinct and homogeneous group, with significant problems which can be adjusted without regard to the other public employees of the public employer shall be considered by the board or presiding officer, and the relationship of the proposed unit to the total organizational pattern of the public employer may be considered by the board or presiding officer. Neither the extent to which public employees have been organized by an employee organization nor the desires of a particular group of public employees to be represented separately or by a particular employee organization shall be controlling on the question of whether a proposed unit is appropriate.
