The union applied for certification.
The employer alleged that union organizers and supporters made material misrepresentations and threats to job security during the organizing campaign, specifically telling employees they would not be protected if they did not sign union cards.
The Board found that paid union organizers did not make such statements.
While a fellow employee may have made ambiguous statements, they did not amount to intimidation or a material misrepresentation that would invalidate the membership evidence.
The Board granted an interim certificate.
