Case 18-UD-125545
DECISION AND CERTIFICATION OF RESULTS OF ELECTION
The National Labor Relations Board has considered objections to an election held June
12, 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 160
eligible voters, 57 ballots cast in favor of withdrawing the authority of the bargaining
representative to require, under its agreement with the Employer, that employees make certain
lawful payments to the Union in order to retain their jobs, with 19 ballots cast against the
proposition, and 2 challenged ballots, an insufficient number to affect the results.
No exceptions have been filed to the Regional Director's report within the time provided.
Accordingly, the Board adopts the Regional Director's findings and recommendations, and finds
that a certification of results of election should be issued.
