Involving certain employees of:

sound transit

CASE 138015-E-23

DECISION 13782-A - PECB

FINAL CERTIFICATION

Paul Marvy, General Counsel, for PROTEC17.

Darrah Hinton, Attorney at Law, Davis Wright Tremaine, for Sound Transit.

On November 29, 2023, PROTEC17 filed a petition to represent certain employees of Sound Transit. After an investigation, the Public Employment Relations Commission (PERC) determined that a card check could be conducted and reserved the eligibility challenges for a subsequent determination. The tally indicated that PROTEC17 was entitled to certification and the eligibility issues did not affect the outcome of the card check. PERC issued an interim certification in Sound Transit, Decision 13782 (PECB, 2024) and conducted further proceedings to resolve the eligibility challenges.

Prior to a ruling, the parties resolved their differences. PERC has reviewed the parties’ resolution and determined that the resulting bargaining unit is appropriate under the statute. No further proceedings are necessary.

ORDER

1.                  The interim certification will stand as the final certification in this representation proceeding for the bargaining unit described as follows:

All full-time and regular part-time nonsupervisory employees in the Passenger Information Coordinator and Senior Passenger Information Coordinator job class working for Sound Transit, excluding supervisors, confidential employees, and all other employees.

2.                  The above-captioned matter is CLOSED.

ISSUED at Olympia, Washington, this  26th  day of February, 2024.
