Pennsylvania Labor Relations Act • Decertification Election • Three-Year Contract Bar
Kaolin Workers Union v. Pa. Labor Relations Bd., PICS Case No. 16-0818 (Pa. Commw. June 15, 2016) Covey, J. (10 pages).
Board correctly decertified union after an election because the board’s adoption of a three-year contract bar was proper since the board’s interpretation of the last sentence of §7(c) of the Pennsylvania Labor Relations Act (PLRA) had to be given controlling weight. Affirmed.
