DECISION 9480-A - FCBA

EVERGREEN STATE COLLEGE

ORDER CLOSING CASE

On May 1, 2006, United Faculty of Evergreen/United Faculty of Washington filed a petition for investigation of a question concerning representation with the Public Employment Relations Commission, involving certain employees of Evergreen State College. As a result of prelimi­nary processing of the petition, the Commission determined the question concerning representation, and issues concerning the eligibility of certain employees for inclusion in the bargaining unit were reserved for subsequent determination. The tally indicated that United Faculty of Evergreen/United Faculty of Washington was entitled to certifica­tion in the matter, and that the reserved eligibil­ity issues were not of a sufficient number to affect the outcome of the proceedings.

An interim certification was issued in this matter, as Evergreen State College, Decision 9480 (FCBA, 2006), for the bargaining unit described as:

ALL FULL-TIME AND REGULAR PART-TIME EMPLOYEES OF EVERGREEN STATE COLLEGE WHO ARE EITHER DESIGNATED WITH FACULTY STATUS OR PERFORM FACULTY DUTIES AS DEFINED IN THE FACULTY GOVERNANCE DOCUMENTS OF THE EMPLOYER, EXCLUDING CASUAL OR TEMPORARY EMPLOYEES (AS DEFINED IN WAC 391-35-35-(2)), ADMINISTRATORS, CONFIDENTIAL EMPLOYEES, GRADUATE STUDENT EMPLOYEES, POSTDOCTORAL AND CLINICAL EMPLOYEES, AND ALL OTHER EMPLOYEES OF THE EMPLOYER.

The proceeding was held open to resolve the eligibility disputes previously framed by the parties.

Prior to issuance of a decision on the eligibility issues, the parties resolved their differences. It therefore appears that all issues that could properly be addressed in this representation proceeding have been resolved, and that no further proceed­ings are necessary.

NOW, THEREFORE, it is

ORDERED

1.                  The interim certification issued in this matter will stand as the final certifi­cation in this representation proceeding.

2.                  The above-captioned matter is CLOSED.

Issued at Olympia, Washington, on the 17th day of January, 2007.
