The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) denied an employer's request for review of a Regional Director's Decision and Certification of Representative. The employer sought review, alleging the Regional Director erred in overruling an objection. The Board found that the employer's request raised no substantial issues warranting review.
Specifically, the Board addressed Objection 2, which concerned alleged misrepresentations made during the election campaign. The Regional Director had overruled this objection. The employer argued that the election should be set aside due to the Board's prior decision in Amazon.com Services, 373 NLRB No. 136 (2024). Members Murphy and Mayer, who were not on the panel that decided Amazon.com Services, rejected the employer's contention that the election must be set aside based on that precedent. They stated that they did not participate in Amazon.com Services and expressed no view on its correctness.
The Board also noted that the Regional Director had inadvertently mischaracterized the employer's operations as involving "ramp services," which the employer contested. However, the Board found no need to remand the case on this basis, as the Regional Director's analysis did not rely on this mischaracterization. Therefore, the employer's request for review was denied.
