DECISION AND CERTIFICATION OF REPRESENTATIVE
The National Labor Relations Board has considered objections to an election
held September 17, 2015, and the Acting Regional Director's report recommending
disposition of them.1 The election was conducted pursuant to a Stipulated Election
Agreement. The tally of ballots shows 34 ballots cast for the Union, and 31 ballots cast
against the Union. There were 0 void ballots and 1 challenged ballot, which was an
insufficient number to affect the results of the election.
No exceptions have been filed to the Acting Regional Director's report within the
time provided. Accordingly, the Board adopts the Acting Regional Director's findings
and recommendations, and finds that a Certification of Representative should be issued.2

1 The Acting Regional Director recommended that Petitioner’s objections be overruled.
2 In his conclusion, the Acting Regional Director inadvertently stated that a “Certification of
Results” should issue. However, given that a majority of the ballots were cast for the Union in
the election, a “Certification of Representative” should issue.
