On August 20, 2015, the National Labor Relations Board rejected an employer’s challenging to “an appropriate bargaining unit” in a representation case handled by Daniel Kornfeld of Blitman & King LLP. The employer argued for a unit covering all production employees, but the Board held that the less comprehesive unit sought by the Union was sufficient. Importantly, this decision preserved options during union organizing to effectuate the rights of distinct groups of employees.
