NLRB Administrative Judge Upholds Local 25 Victory at Central Parking
An administrative law judge with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) Region 1 in Boston has upheld the February 8 organizing victory at Central Parking in the Boston area, paving the way for 334 workers to join Local 25.
The company had held up the certification process by challenging some of the ballots that were cast. The judge ruled that 28 challenged ballots were not eligible to be counted, while seven ballots were.
“Accordingly, based on the forgoing, as the challenged ballots of the seven voters found eligible herein are insufficient to affect the results of the election, I recommend that the Board certify the results of the election in favor of the Union,” the judge ruled.
“We are very pleased that the judge saw through the company’s stonewalling,” said Sean M. O’Brien, President and Principal Officer of Local 25 in Boston. “Since February 8, the workers at Central Parking have been in limbo. Now they are members of Local 25 and we will work hard at negotiating a strong first contract that addresses their concerns.”
