DECISION AND CERTIFICATION OF REPRESENTATIVE
The National Labor Relations Board, by a three-member panel, has considered objections
to an election held on November 21, 2014, and the Regional Director’s report recommending
disposition of them. The election was conducted pursuant to a Stipulated Election Agreement.
The tally of ballots shows 10 votes for the Petitioner, no votes for the Intervenor, no votes
against the participating labor organizations, and no challenged ballots.
The Board has reviewed the record in light of the exceptions and briefs, has adopted the
Regional Director’s findings and recommendations, and finds that a certification of
representative should be issued.1

1 We note that the Region conducted a full investigation based on the information in an
affidavit provided by the Employer, including relying on the Region’s investigation of
allegations in the same affidavit filed in the related Case 32-CB-140956 (withdrawn by the
Employer on January 16, 2015). In that case, the Region found no employee witnesses who
would corroborate the assertions in the hearsay affidavit. As noted by the Regional Director,
