DECISION, ORDER, AND ORDER REMANDING
BY CHAIRMAN PEARCE AND MEMBERS MISCIMARRA
AND HIROZAWA
The General Counsel seeks a default judgment in this
case on the ground that the Respondents have failed to
file an appropriate answer to the complaints and compli-
ance specification. Upon charges filed on September 5,
2013, and September 12, 2013,1 the General Counsel
issued a consolidated complaint and notice of hearing on
November 19, 2013, against The Columbus Show Case
Company d/b/a CSC Worldwide (CSC Worldwide), al-
leging that it has violated Section 8(a)(5) and (1) of the
National Labor Relations Act. On December 2, 2013,
CSC Worldwide submitted a letter (described more fully
below) purporting to answer the complaint. The General
Counsel issued an amended complaint on December 5,
2013, amending the relief sought. The General Counsel
issued a second amended complaint on February 7, 2014,
naming CSC Worldwide and CSC Specialty Retail
Group, LLC, as respondents and alleging that they con-
stitute a single employer.2 On February 20, 2014, the
General Counsel issued a compliance specification that

1 The September 5 charges were filed by the Sheet Metal Workers
International Association, Local Union No. 24, AFL–CIO, and the
Council of Industrial Workers, United Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners of America, Local 2077. The September 12 charges were filed
by the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades, District
Council 6, Local Union No. 1275, AFL–CIO, CLC; the Glaziers, Ar-
chitectural Metal and Glass Workers, Local Union No. 372; and the
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local Union 683,
AFL–CIO.
2 CSC Worldwide and CSC Specialty Retail Group, LLC, are re-
ferred to collectively as “the Respondents.”
was consolidated with the second amended complaint.
By letter dated March 14, 2014, the Region notified the
Respondents that answers to the second amended com-
plaint and compliance specification were overdue and
that the General Counsel would file a Motion for Default
Judgment if the Respondents failed to file an answer by
March 19, 2014. The Respondents failed to file an an-
swer by that date.
On April 15, 2014, the General Counsel filed a Motion
for Default Judgment. On April 17, 2014, the Board
issued an order transferring the proceeding to the Board
and a Notice to Show Cause why the motion should not
be granted. The Respondents filed no response. The
allegations in the motion are therefore undisputed.
The National Labor Relations Board has delegated its
authority in this proceeding to a three-member panel.
Ruling on Motion for Default Judgment
Section 102.20 of the Board’s Rules and Regulations
provides that a respondent “shall specifically admit, de-
ny, or explain each of the facts alleged in the complaint,
unless the respondent is without knowledge, in which
case the respondent shall so state, such statement operat-
ing as a denial.” It further provides that the allegations in
a complaint shall be deemed admitted if an answer is not
filed within 14 days from service of the complaint, unless
good cause is shown. Similarly, Section 102.56 of the
Board’s Rules and Regulations provides that the allega-
tions in a compliance specification will be taken as true
and the Board may enter such order as may be appropri-
ate if an answer is not filed within 21 days from service
of the compliance specification. Further, the November
19, 2013 consolidated complaint affirmatively stated that
unless an answer was received by December 3, 2013, the
Board may find, pursuant to a motion for default judg-
ment, that the allegations in the complaint are true.
The November 19 complaint alleges that CSC World-
wide violated Section 8(a)(5) and (1) by failing to con-
tinue in effect the terms and conditions of its collective-
bargaining agreement with the Charging Parties (the Un-
ions) and by dealing directly with unit employees.3 On
December 2, 2013, CSC Worldwide filed a letter consist-
ing of the following five statements:
The Company negotiated in good faith with the Unions
over the options to keep the company’s operations go-
ing and the effects of shutting down.
The Unions rejected those terms.

3 All of the consolidated complaints allege, without contradiction
from the Respondents at any point during this proceeding, that the
Respondents and Unions were party to a collective-bargaining agree-
ment effective from June 22, 2012, to June 21, 2015.
2 DECISIONS OF THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
The Unions failed to file grievances under the CBA and
should be barred from raising these issues now.
The Company does not deny that certain CBA provi-
sions regarding pension, vacation and sick days were
not paid.
The Company denies that it violated the law or the
CBA in any way by using salaried employees to com-
plete pending projects.
The Region, by telephone, notified CSC Worldwide on
February 5, 2014, that its letter was not a sufficient answer.
The amended consolidated complaint, second amended
consolidated complaint, and compliance specification
stated that unless an answer was received by December
19, 2013, February 21, 2014, and March 13, 2014, re-
spectively, the Board may find, pursuant to a motion for
default judgment, that the allegations in the complaints
and compliance specification are true.4 The Respondents
filed no response to the amended complaint, second
amended complaint, or compliance specification. The
Region, by letter dated March 14, 2014, notified the Re-
spondents that unless an answer to the second amended
complaint and compliance specification was received by
March 19, 2014, a motion for default judgment would be
filed. The Respondents filed no answer or request for an
extension of time. In sum, the December 2 letter is the
only response submitted by the Respondents.
The General Counsel argues that the December 2 letter
is legally insufficient because it fails to specifically ad-
mit, deny, or explain each of the facts alleged in the
complaint. The General Counsel further contends that
the Board should deem as true the allegations in the se-
cond amended complaint and the compliance specifica-
tion because the Respondents have not shown good cause
for failing to file a timely answer. In the alternative, the
General Counsel argues that the Board should deem as
true all allegations in the second amended complaint and
compliance specification that have not been specifically
admitted, denied, or explained by the December 2 letter.
At the outset, we agree with the General Counsel that
the letter leaves unchallenged certain allegations in the
November 19 complaint. The letter does not address
paragraphs 1 through 6(b), pertaining to the filing and
service of the unfair labor practice charges, jurisdiction,
employer and labor organization status, supervisory and
agency status, the parties’ collective-bargaining relation-

4 As noted above, the amended complaint and second amended
complaint contain the same substantive allegations as the original com-
plaint, but modify the requested relief and add the single-employer
allegation.
ship, and the allegation that CSC Worldwide failed to
pay certain arbitration fees and expenses. In addition, the
letter does not address the allegations in paragraphs 7(a),
(b), and (c) that CSC Worldwide dealt directly with unit
employees by soliciting them to perform bargaining unit
work under terms and conditions of employment that
were contrary to those set forth in the 2012–2015 collec-
tive-bargaining agreement. Moreover, CSC Worldwide
has admitted—stating that it “does not deny”—that it
failed to remit certain pension contributions and make
certain payments to employees for unused vacation and
sick days and accrued vacation time.5
Furthermore, although CSC Worldwide asserts that it
“negotiated in good faith with the Unions” and “[t]he
Unions rejected those terms,” these assertions do not
contest the complaint allegations that CSC Worldwide,
without the Unions’ consent, solicited unit employees to
perform bargaining unit work in a manner contrary to the
terms of the 2012–2015 collective-bargaining agreement
and, additionally, failed to pay certain arbitration fees,
remit certain pension contributions, and pay unit em-
ployees for accrued and unused leave time owed under
the 2012–2015 collective-bargaining agreement. It is
well settled under Section 8(a)(5) and (1) and Section
8(d) that “an employer that is party to an existing collec-
tive-bargaining agreement is obligated to first obtain the
consent of the union before modifying the terms and
conditions of employment established by that agree-
ment.” Able Aluminum Co., 321 NLRB 1071, 1071
(1996) (citing Nick Robilotto, Inc., 292 NLRB 1279
(1989)). Thus, even if CSC Worldwide could prove that
it negotiated in good faith with the Unions and that the
Unions rejected the proposed terms, such a showing does
not provide a valid defense to the allegation that CSC
Worldwide violated Section 8(a)(5) and (1) by engaging
in the conduct alleged in the complaint, which CSC
Worldwide has effectively admitted. See Uwanta Linen
Supply, Inc., 357 NLRB No. 55, slip op. at 2 (2011);
Able Aluminum Co., 321 NLRB at 1071. Accordingly,
we find that the first two statements in CSC Worldwide’s
letter are legally insufficient to deny any portion of the
complaint or otherwise raise any material issues of fact
or law.
We also find that CSC Worldwide’s statement that the
Unions did not file a grievance and “should be barred
from raising these issues now” does not constitute a de-

5 The General Counsel’s motion indicates that the Respondents, dur-
ing their communications with the Region, orally asserted an inability
to pay the amounts sought. It is well established that the financial
inability of a respondent is not a defense to a charge that it violated Sec.
8(a)(5). See Pantry Restaurant, 341 NLRB 243, 244 (2004) (citing
Convergence Communications, Inc., 339 NLRB 408 (2003)).
CSC WORLDWIDE 3
ferral defense, to the extent it was intended as one. Ac-
cording to the undisputed allegations in the General
Counsel’s motion, CSC Worldwide has asserted that it
would consider any grievance filed as untimely and has
not affirmatively stated that it would consider and pro-
cess such a grievance. Thus, even assuming CSC
Worldwide was attempting to raise a defense that the
allegations should be deferred to arbitration, the Board
has long held that deferral is not appropriate where the
employer has not shown a willingness to utilize arbitra-
tion to resolve the dispute or has expressed its intention
to assert a timeliness defense if the dispute is submitted
to the parties’ grievance-arbitration procedure. See Unit-
ed Technologies Corp., 268 NLRB 557, 558–560 (1984).
Under these circumstances, we decline to defer this case
to arbitration.
The fifth and final statement in CSC Worldwide’s let-
ter “denies that [CSC Worldwide] violated the law or
CBA in any way by using salaried employees to com-
plete pending projects.” The General Counsel argues
that this statement is inadequate under Section 102.20
because it is vague as to which allegation it addresses
and because it is nonresponsive insofar as it attempts to
deny a violation of the Act while simultaneously admit-
ting the factual allegations that constitute such a viola-
tion. Contrary to the General Counsel’s arguments, we
find that CSC Worldwide has raised a genuine issue of
fact concerning the allegation that it violated Section
8(a)(5) by using managers and supervisors to do unit
work, thereby changing the terms and conditions of em-
ployment established by the 2012–2015 collective-
bargaining agreement. Thus, we find default judgment
inappropriate on that allegation.
CSC Worldwide has failed to deny the remaining alle-
gations in the November 19 complaint and has failed to
raise any material issues of fact or law that would war-
rant a hearing on the merits. Therefore, we shall deem
admitted all other allegations in the November 19 com-
plaint.
The Respondents have failed to file an answer to the
second amended complaint and the compliance specifica-
tion. It is well established, however, that “[t]he Board
will not grant default judgment on an allegation respond-
ed to in a timely-filed answer to a complaint even though
the respondent later fails to timely answer an amended
complaint repeating that allegation, provided that the
repeated allegation is ‘substantively unchanged’ from the
original.” RFS Ecusta, Inc., 342 NLRB 920, 920–921
(2004). In this case, paragraph 7(c)(i) of the second
amended complaint repeats the allegation from the No-
vember 19 complaint that the Respondents failed to con-
tinue in effect all the terms and conditions of the collec-
tive-bargaining agreement by “utilizing managers and
supervisors to perform bargaining unit work before offer-
ing all laid-off unit employees recall to employment.”
As explained above, CSC Worldwide’s December 2 let-
ter has raised a factual issue concerning the merits of that
allegation.
Accordingly, we shall deny the General Counsel’s mo-
tion for default judgment as to paragraph 7(c)(i) of the
second amended complaint, and we shall sever and re-
mand that allegation to the Region for further appropriate
action.6 In the absence of good cause being shown for
the lack of a timely answer, we shall grant default judg-
ment on all other allegations in the second amended
complaint and all allegations in the compliance specifica-
tion.
On the entire record, the Board makes the following
FINDINGS OF FACT
I. JURISDICTION
At all material times, Respondent The Columbus Show
Case Company d/b/a CSC Worldwide has been an Ohio
corporation with a facility located in Columbus, Ohio,
and has been engaged in the manufacture, assembly, and
the nonretail sale of display units.
At all material times, Respondent CSC Specialty Re-
tail Group has been an Ohio corporation with a facility
located in Columbus, Ohio, and has been engaged in the
manufacture, assembly, and the nonretail sale of display
units.
During the calendar year preceding the complaint, a
representative period, the Respondents, collectively, in
conducting their business operations described above,
sold and shipped from their Columbus, Ohio facility
goods valued in excess of $50,000 directly to points out-
side the State of Ohio.
We find that the Respondents are employers engaged
in commerce within the meaning of Section 2(2), (6), and
(7) of the Act, and that the Unions are labor organiza-
tions within the meaning of Section 2(5) of the Act.
At all material times, the Respondents have been affil-
iated business enterprises with common officers, owner-
ship, directors, management, and supervision; have for-
mulated and administered a common labor policy; have
shared common premises and facilities; have provided
services for each other; have interchanged personnel with

6 CSC Worldwide’s letter precludes default judgment against CSC
Specialty Retail Group as to the allegation in par. 7(c)(i) of the second
amended complaint. The Board will “declin[e] to enter default judg-
ment against a nonanswering respondent in circumstances where its
alleged liability was derivative and stemmed from its alleged status as a
single employer with . . . another respondent who filed a timely an-
swer.” See Metro Demolition Co., 348 NLRB 272, 272–273 fn. 6
(2006), and cases cited therein.

each other; have interrelated operations engaged in the
manufacture, assembly, and the nonretail sale of display
units, with common website, insurance, purchasing and
sales; and have held themselves out to the public as a
single-integrated business enterprise.
Based on their operations described above, we find
that the Respondents constitute a single-integrated busi-
ness enterprise and a single employer within the meaning
of the Act.
II. ALLEGED UNFAIR LABOR PRACTICES
At all material times, the following individuals have
held the positions set forth opposite their respective
names and have been supervisors of the Respondents
within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Act and
agents of the Respondents within the meaning of Section
2(13) of the Act:
Carl Aschinger Chief Executive
Officer
Chris Aschinger President
Carl Bush Supervisor
John Grega Employer Repre-
sentative
Donnell Penwell Supervisor
Mike Cavins Engineer
Len Limbacher Research and Devel-
opment Manager
Mark Pugh Vice-President of
Marketing
Jeve Willis Human Resources
Manager
Art Short, Jr. Engineer
The following employees of the Respondents consti-
tute a unit appropriate for the purposes of collective bar-
gaining within the meaning of Section 9(b) of the Act:
All apprentices, assemblers, electricians, glaziers,
maintenance persons, millmen, sheet metal workers,
finishers, material coordinators, and packers/shippers,
programmer Gordon Bragg, but excluding all other
programming positions, engineers, office clerical em-
ployees, all guards, and supervisors as defined in the
National Labor Relations Act, as amended.
At all material times, the Respondents have recognized
the Unions, through the Union Steering Committee, as
the exclusive collective-bargaining representative of unit
employees. This recognition has been embodied in suc-
cessive collective-bargaining agreements, the most recent
of which is effective from June 22, 2012, to June 21,
2015. At all material times, based on Section 9(a) of the
Act, the Unions have been the exclusive collective-
bargaining representative of the unit.
The Respondents have engaged in the following con-
duct.
1. Since about May 1, 2013, the Respondents have
failed to continue in effect all the terms and conditions of
the 2012–2015 collective-bargaining agreement by fail-
ing to pay the fees and expenses of an arbitrator for a
January 31, 2013 arbitration hearing that the Respond-
ents lost.
2. Since about August 1, 2013, the Respondents have
failed to continue in effect all the terms and conditions of
the 2012–2015 collective-bargaining agreement by fail-
ing to remit to the Unions’ pension funds contributions
on behalf of unit employees for the month of July 2013
and the period August 1 through 9, 2013, and by failing
to pay unit employees for all unused vacation and sick
leave hours during the year 2013 and vacation hours ac-
crued for the year 2014 from January to August 9, 2013.
The terms and conditions set forth in paragraphs 1 and
2, above, are mandatory subjects for the purpose of col-
lective bargaining. The Respondents engaged in the
conduct described in paragraphs 1 and 2, above, without
the Unions’ consent.
3. On or about August 9, 10, and/or 11, 2013, the Re-
spondents, by Jeve Willis, at their Columbus, Ohio facili-
ty, bypassed the Unions and dealt directly with employ-
ees in the unit by soliciting employees to perform bar-
gaining unit work under terms and conditions of em-
ployment that were contrary to those set forth in the
2012–2015 collective-bargaining agreement.
4. On or about August 9, 2013, the Respondents, by
Mark Pugh, at their Columbus, Ohio facility, bypassed
the Unions and dealt directly with employees in the unit
by soliciting employees to perform bargaining unit work
under terms and conditions of employment that were
contrary to those set forth in the 2012–2015 collective-
bargaining agreement.
5. During the week of August 12, 2013, the Respond-
ents, by Art Short, at their Columbus, Ohio facility, by-
passed the Unions and dealt directly with employees in
the unit by soliciting employees to perform bargaining
unit work under terms and conditions of employment that
were contrary to those set forth in the 2012–2015 collec-
tive-bargaining agreement.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
1. By the conduct described above, the Respondents
have failed to continue in effect all the terms and condi-
tions of the 2012–2015 collective-bargaining agreement
and have failed and refused to bargain collectively and in
good faith with the exclusive collective-bargaining repre-
sentative of their employees within the meaning of Sec-
CSC WORLDWIDE 5
tion 8(d) of the Act in violation of Section 8(a)(5) and (1)
of the Act.
2. The Respondents’ unfair labor practices affect
commerce within the meaning of Section 2(6) and (7) of
the Act.
REMEDY
Having found that the Respondents CSC Worldwide
and CSC Specialty Retail Group (a single employer, re-
ferred to herein as Respondents) have engaged in certain
unfair labor practices, we find that they are jointly and
severally liable for the unfair labor practices found and
must be ordered to cease and desist and to take certain
affirmative action designed to effectuate the policies of
the Act.
Specifically, having found that the Respondents violat-
ed Section 8(a)(5) and (1) by failing to pay contractually
required fees and expenses of an arbitrator for a January
31, 2013 arbitration, we shall order the Respondents to
pay the arbitrator’s bill in the amount of $5499.00.
Having found that the Respondents repudiated their
obligations under the 2012–2015 collective-bargaining
agreement in violation of Section 8(a)(5) and (1) by fail-
ing to remit to the Unions’ pension funds contributions
for the month of July 2013 and the period of August 1
through 9, 2013, as required by the 2012–2015 collec-
tive-bargaining agreement, we shall order the Respond-
ents to rescind their actions, to reinstitute payments to the
Unions’ pension funds, and to make the unit employees
whole. Specifically, we shall order the Respondents to
make all such delinquent fund contributions on behalf of
unit employees in the amounts set forth in Appendix B of
this decision, including any additional amounts due the
funds in accordance with Merryweather Optical Co., 240
NLRB 1213, 1216 fn. 7 (1979), and to make the employ-
ees whole for any expenses they may have incurred as a
result of the Respondents’ failure to make such payments
as set forth in Kraft Plumbing & Heating, 252 NLRB
891 fn. 2 (1980), enfd. mem. 661 F.2d 940 (9th Cir.
1981), such amounts to be computed in the manner set
forth in Ogle Protection Service, 183 NLRB 682 (1970),
enfd. 444 F.2d 502 (6th Cir. 1971), with interest as pre-
scribed in New Horizons, 283 NLRB 1173 (1987), com-
pounded daily as prescribed in Kentucky River Medical
Center, 356 NLRB 6 (2010).7

7 To the extent that an employee has made personal contributions to
a fund that are accepted by the fund in lieu of the employer’s delin-
quent contributions during the period of the delinquency, the Respond-
ents will reimburse the employee, but the amount of such reimburse-
ment will constitute a setoff to the amount that the Respondents other-
wise owe the fund.
In addition, although requested by the Region to do so, the Respond-
ents have not provided payroll records to establish the hours worked by
Having found that the Respondents repudiated their
obligations under the 2012–2015 collective-bargaining
agreement in violation of Section 8(a)(5) and (1) by fail-
ing to pay unit employees for unused vacation and sick
leave hours during the year 2013 and vacation hours ac-
crued for the year 2014 from January to August 9, 2013,
we shall order the Respondents to rescind the actions and
make whole the employees named in Appendix C of this
decision by paying them the amounts set forth following
their names. Such amounts shall be computed in the
manner set forth in Ogle Protection Service, supra, with
interest as prescribed in New Horizons, supra, com-
pounded daily as prescribed in Kentucky River Medical
Center, supra.8
In addition, we shall order the Respondents to com-
pensate unit employees for the adverse tax consequences,
if any, of receiving lump-sum benefit awards and to file a
report with the Social Security Administration allocating
the awards to the appropriate calendar quarters for each
employee. Don Chavas, LLC d/b/a Tortillas Don
Chavas, 361 NLRB No. 10 (2014).
Finally, having found that the Respondents violated
Section 8(a)(5) and (1) by directly soliciting employees
to perform bargaining unit work under terms and condi-
tions contrary to the 2012–2015 collective-bargaining
agreement, we shall order the Respondents to bargain
with the Unions as the exclusive collective-bargaining
representative of unit employees with respect to wages,
hours, and other terms and conditions of employment.
In the event that the Respondents’ facility is closed, we
shall order the Respondents to mail a copy of the at-
tached notice to the Unions and to the last known ad-
dresses of their former unit employees in order to inform
them of the outcome of this proceeding.

13 We correct a mathematical error in the compliance specification. The compliance specification mistakenly states that the grand total
owed for unused 2013 vacation and sick hours and accrued vacation hours for 2014 is $126,619.52. This error stems from the incorrect
statement in the compliance specification that the total amount owed for 2014 vacation hours is $113,892.80, when the correct total is
$123,591.96. The compliance specification correctly states the total amount owed for 2013 unused vacation is $9505.74 and the total
amount owed for 2013 unused sick time is $3678.04. As such, the grand total owed for unused 2013 vacation and sick hours and accrued
vacation hours for 2014 is $136,775.74.
