Employment & Labor

The CA ALRB Administrative Law Judge issued a decision resolving five employer objections to the Regional Director's certification of the United Farm Workers of America's majority support petition at DMB Packing Corp. dba The DiMare Company. The Regional Director added 31 eligible employees to the eligibility list during a cure period, resulting in 151 authorization cards out of 297 eligible employees establishing proof of majority support. The Board previously denied DiMare's interim appeal challenging the Regional Director's authority to expand the eligibility list. The decision addresses issues of first impression under Labor Code §1156.37 regarding due process, challenged ballot procedures, and the Regional Director's authority to add names to eligibility lists.
