Dec. 20, 2017) Copy Citation UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BEFORE THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD ADT SECURITY SERVICES Employer and Case 18-RD-206831 IBEW LOCAL 110 Union and LANCE OELRICH Petitioner ORDER The Petitioner’s Request for Review of the Regional Director’s determination to hold the petition in abeyance is denied as it raises no substantial issues warranting review.1 LAUREN McFERRAN, MEMBER MARVIN E. KAPLAN, MEMBER WILLIAM J. EMANUEL, MEMBER Dated, Washington, D.C., December 20, 2017. 1 Member Kaplan agrees with the decision to deny review here. He notes, however, that, consistent with the Petitioner’s suggestion, he would consider revisiting the Board’s blocking charge policy in a future appropriate case. Member Emanuel agrees that the determination to hold the petition in abeyance in this case was permissible under the Board’s current blocking- charge policy, but he believes that the policy should be changed. Specifically, he believes that an employee’s petition for an election should generally not be dismissed based on contested and unproven allegations of unfair labor practices.
