AIL, A DIVISION OF CUTLER-HAMMER, INC. 203 AIL, A Division of Cutler-Hammer, Inc.' and Commu- nications Workers of America, AFL-CIO, Peti- tioner. Case 29-RC-2491 October 22, 1974 DECISION AND DIRECTION OF ELECTION BY CHAIRMAN MILLER AND MEMBERS JENKINS AND KENNEDY Upon a petition duly filed under Section 9(c) of the National Labor Relations Act, as amended, a hearing was held before Hearing Officer Bruce Kett- ler of the National Labor Relations Board. Follow- ing the close of the hearing the Regional Director for Region 29 transferred the case to the Board for deci- sion. Thereafter, the Employer and Petitioner filed briefs. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 3(b) of the National Labor Relations Act, as amended, the Na- tional Labor Relations Board has delegated its au- thority in this proceeding to a three-member panel. The Board has reviewed the Hearing Officer's rul- ings made at the hearing and finds that they are free from prejudicial error. They are hereby affirmed. Upon the entire record in this proceeding, the Board finds: 1. The Employer, hereafter also referred to as AIL, is a corporation with its principal place of busi- ness in Deer Park, New York, where it is engaged in the production and sale of electronic equipment and systems. During the past year, it sold products valued in excess of $50,000 from its New York plants direct- ly to other firms located outside New York State. The parties stipulated, and we find, that the Employ- er is engaged in commerce within the meaning of the Act, and that it will effectuate the purposes of the Act to assert jurisdiction herein. 2. The labor organization involved claims to rep- resent certain employees of the Employer. 3. A question affecting commerce exists concern- ing the representation of certain employees of the Employer within the meaning of Section 9(c)(1) and Section 2(6),and (7) of the Act. 4. The appropriate unit: The Employer has three plants within 10 miles of each other on Long Island, New York, one of which is at Deer Park, one at Melville, and one at Farming- dale.' Most of the Employer's Long Island manufac- turing operations are subsumed within divisions re- porting to the Employer's vice president for opera- 1 As corrected at the hearing. 2 The Employer also has plants on the west coast, none of which is in- volved in this proceeding. tions. These divisions, and the approximate number of employees in them, are as follows: Antenna Sys- tems Division (40); Radiations Systems Division (230); Reconnaissance and Surveillance Division (105); Technical Support Division (325); Product Support Division (1,400); Special Programs (25); Transportation Systems Division (176); and Applied Electronics Division (125). All but the last three divi- sions are located at Deer Park. The Transportation Systems Division is located at Farmingdale and the Applied Electronics Division and Special Programs are located at Melville. In addition to the above, manufacturing opera- tions are also carried on in a division of the Employ- er known as Ailtech, in which there are approximate- ly 120 employees, and in the Central Research Group, in which there are approximately 30 employ- ees. Ailtech is at Farmingdale, and the Central Re- search Group is at Melville. The general manager of Ailtech reports directly to-the Employer's president and the director of the Central Research Group re- ports to the Employer's vice president for plans and business development. The Petitioner seeks to represent all hourly rated production and maintenance employees and all weekly rated technicians of.the Employer at the three Long Island plants, excluding "all clerical employees, professional employees, sales employees, supervisors and guards as defined in the Labor Relations Act," all Ailtech employees, certain employees in the Cen- tral Research Group, and all currently represented employees.' The Employer contends that the request- ed unit is underinclusive and therefore inappropriate. While the parties did not reach agreement as to the unit placement of Ailtech employees, they did agree that, except as to them, all hourly rated employees and weekly rated technicians 5 in classifications listed on Attachment A be included in the unit, that all weekly and monthly rated employees in classifica- tions listed on Attachment C. be excluded from the unit,6 and that the unit found appropriate should en- compass the three • Long Island plants' and no J The Employer's drivers are currently represented by a local union of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. Otherwise, there is no history of collective bargaining involving employees at the three Long Island plants. These are production and maintenance employees. 5 Certain engineering and senior engineering associates . a classification comprised of technical employees which the parties agreed to include in the unit, work in the Employer's quality assurance department . The work they perform and skills they possess differ substantially from those of other engi- neering and senior engineering associates , and the Employer is currently considering changing their classification to reflect this fact . The parties did not agree to include them in the unit. For the reasons set forth infra. we shall permit them to vote subject to challenge. 6 These employees are office clerical , professional or managerial employ- ees. or otherwise lack a community of interest with unit employees. r A question was raised by the Petitioner at the hearing as to the propriety of including in the unit production and technical employees at the Melville Continued 214 NLRB No. 42 204 DECISIONS OF NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD others. Inasmuch as the record supports the inclu- sions or exclusions stipulated to or agreed upon by the parties, we accept them. The parties dispute the unit placement of the fol- lowing classifications or groups of employees, all of which the Employer contends are production, techni- cal, or plant clerical employees and should be includ- ed in the unit, and which the Petitioner contends are clerical, administrative, or managerial employees, or otherwise lack a community of interest with unit em- ployees, and should be excluded from the unit: Ailtech Production, Maintenance , and Technical Employees Petitioner contends that Ailtech production, main- tenance, or technical employees should be excluded from the unit in view of the fact that Ailtech primar- ily produces electronic equipment for use by the pub- lic, whereas AIL produces such equipment principal- ly for the Government or the armed services, and that Ailtech functions as, and probably is, a separate corporation, and thus Ailtech employees do not share a sufficient community of interest with AIL employees to warrant their inclusion in the unit. While not conclusive on the question of Ailtech's corporate status, the record does establish that Ail- tech employees are on the AIL payroll, accumulate job seniority on a multiplant rather than a divisional basis, and share lunchroom and parking areas with AIL employees, and that there is no difference what- soever between the wage structure, working condi- tions, job classifications, fringe benefits, and labor policies applicable to Ailtech employees and those applicable to other employees in the requested unit. Thus, it is clear, as the Employer contends, that Ail- tech production, maintenance, and technical employ- ees share a close community of interest with unit em- ployees sufficient to require their inclusion in the re- quested unit. Accordingly, we shall include Ailtech employees in the unit if they are in classifications which would otherwise be included. Senior Planner, Planner, and Assistant Planner 8 There are approximately 70 planners, most of plant in Special Programs, which is engaged in research and development work under contract with the United States Government on highly classi- fied electronic equipment . As both the Employer and the Petitioner now concur in the inclusion of these employees in the unit , and as it appears that they are engaged in production work and otherwise share a community of interest with other unit employees , we shall include them in the unit. 9 Throughout this Decision , classifications in dispute will be grouped in descending order of responsibility or experience , e.g., senior planner, plan- ner, and assistant planner , and a generic term will be used to refer to the entire group : e.g.. "planner" will be used to refer to all classifications of planners. whom work in the manufacturing, planning and con- trol department of the Product Support Division, the Employer's principal manufacturing division. Their desks are in a mezzanine area overlooking the pro- duction floor at the Deer Park plant. Small numbers of planners also are assigned to such areas or pro- grams as the Special Repair Activity section or the TPX-42 program in the Technical Support Division, the Radiation Systems Division, and Ailtech. Planners perform clerical functions related to the production process, such as requisitioning parts, checking whether they have arrived on schedule, re- leasing parts assemblies into the production process, checking to see that each item to be manufactured proceeds through the manufacturing process as scheduled, and attempting to resolve delays in pro- duction. In performing these functions, planners spend substantial amounts of time, averaging as much as 60 to 80 percent of their working day, in production areas. These functions do not require the exercise of technical skills. Since planners perform work that is intimately related to the production pro- cess and spend substantial proportions of their work- ing time in plant areas, we find that they are plant clerical employees and shall include them in the unit.' Project Coordinator A, B, and C, and Engineering Coordinator Most engineering coordinators and project coordi- nators are assigned to divisions other than the Prod- uct Support Division. With certain exceptions, they perform the same production control functions as do planners. The project coordinators who do not per- form these functions are as follows: a project coordi- nator A who works as a stock clerk in the Product Support Division electrical assembly toolcrib, anoth- er who runs a stockroom in the Transportation Sys- tems Division, another in the test operations section of the Product Support Division, who requisitions material and schedules work, project coordinators A and B who work in the printed circuit fabrication area, and a project coordinator B who works as a stock clerk in the Radiation Systems Division stock- room. The record also indicates that project coordi- nators are assigned to the business development and business operations sections of the Reconnaissance and Surveillance Division, but reveals virtually noth- 9Centnry Electric Company. 146 NLRB 232, 240 (1964): Sperry Piednrnm Company.

Except for the last mentioned project coordinators, product and engineering coor- dinators either perform the plant clerical tasks of planners or are involved in ordinary production functions, and we shall therefore include them in the unit. As for the project coordinators in the Recon- naissance and Surveillance Division business offices, we shall permit them to vote subject to challenge. Methodsman, Electrical Assembly, Leader, A, B; Methodsman, Shop, Leader, A, B Most methodsmen, approximately 19 of 33, are in the production engineering department of the Prod- uct Support Divison and work on the second floor of the Deer Park plant in an area adjacent to the work location of planners. Of the remaining methodsmen, two work full time in the Deer Park machine shop, one in the electrical assembly area, four in the wire wrap room, six are temporarily assigned to various shops at Farmingdale and Melville, and one is based in the traffic control systems department of the Transportation Systems Division at Farmingdale. Methodsmen on the second floor at Deer Park are rotated with those assigned to the Deer Park electri- cal assembly and machine shop. The function of methodsmen is to establish the se- quence of operations for the fabrication and assem- bly of the Employer's products; this includes the pro- gramming of machine tools to perform production operations. Virtually all methodsmen were promoted from electrical assembly, sheet metal, or machine shop classifications. Although they are not required to have any formal educational qualifications, the work they perform requires the exercise of consider- able discretion and the skills they possess were ac- quired through many years of job experience. We therefore conclude that they are technical employ- ees."' In view of the fact that methodsmen are regu- larly rotated to positions on the plant floor, that sev- eral are permanently stationed there, and that the classification of methodsman is in the line of progres- sion from production classifications, we find that they share a community of interest with other pro- duction and technical employees sufficient to require their inclusion in the unit." 10 The De Lava!

In that case technical employees apparently were not included in the unit involved , process engineers were not permanently assigned to production areas. those process engineers who had been promoted from unit classifica- tions had been given technical training prior to being promoted , and process Quality Assurance Analysts 205 Quality assurance analysts work in the quality as- surance department on the first floor of the Deer Park plant in an office area containing administra- tive departments such as procurement. personnel, publications, and communications. They report to the director of quality assurance, who reports direct- ly to the Employer's president; the director does not supervise any production personnel. The function of quality assurance analysts is to witness the inspection of the Employer's products by electrical or mechani- cal inspectors to ascertain that the required inspec- tion is performed and that the product conforms to specifications, and to visit the Employer's subcontractor's facilities to assure that the subcon- tractors comply with workmanship specifications es- tablished by the Employer. Both technical employ- ees, such as mechanical or electrical technicians, and nontechnical employees, such as mechanical or elec- trical inspectors, have been promoted to the classifi- cation of quality assurance analyst. A number of en- gineering associates and senior engineering associ- ates also work in the quality assurance department performing the same functions as the quality assur- ance analysts. The record does not indicate what skills are uti- lized by quality assurance analysts and senior engi- neering associates in quality assurance,12 what are the frequency and nature of the contacts they have with production or technical employees, or other factors which would be critical to the determination of their unit placement." Accordingly, we shall permit the quality assurance analysts and engineering and se- nior engineering associates in the quality assurance department to vote subject to challenge. Logistics Analyst Leader, Senior Logistics Analyst, and Logistics Analyst Logistics analysts are based in the logistics section of the manufacturing, planning, and control depart- ment, Product Support Division, in an office area on the second floor of the Deer Park plant. They report to the supervisor of documentation and the supervi- sor of provisioning, who supervise other nonunit em- ployees but no other unit employees. Of the 12 logis- engineers progressed into excluded classifications . These factors, which are not present here, were crucial to the conclusion that their interests were dissimilar to those of production and maintenance employees. 12 The only evidence on this point is that the Employer is considering changing the title of engineering and senior engineering associates in quality assurance to senior quality assurance analyst. since they do not have the technical skills normally possessed by engineering and senior engineering associates. '*I See Ambrosia Chocolate Division of W. R. Grace & Company, 202 NLRB 788 (1973). 206 DECISIONS OF NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD tics analysts, all but 2 were hired from outside AIL. One of the two who was hired from the inside was a technical clerk, a clerical position, and the other held a position in the sheet metal shop. No formal techni- cal education is required of logistics analysts, but en- try level analysts need 1 year's experience in related work, while senior level analysts need 3 to 5 years' experience and the logistics analysts leader needs 5 to 7 years' experience. Logistics analysts perform three basic functions. First, they prepare lists of spare parts for use by AIL customers in ordering such parts.14 The information on these lists is copied from documents on file in the planning area. Second, they identify depictions of product parts in a so-called Illustrated Parts Break- down, or [PB, which is a pictorial representation of AIL products illustrating how the parts are assem- bled into the final product and showing the identify- ing number of each part. The publications depart- ment produces the IPB. Logistics analysts contact publications personnel in the course of its produc- tion, and may also go onto the plant floor to view the object to be depicted in the IPB. Finally, logistics analysts review notices of changes in the engineering of AIL products and notify customers who own the products involved when engineering changes would involve changes in the spare parts for such products. Logistics analysts' work is functionally related to the production of materials by the publications de- partment, not to the Employer's manufacturing oper- ations. They spend most of their time at their desks in an office area, have infrequent and generally insig- nificant contacts with production employees, and are separately supervised. Most were hired from outside the Company, and thus there is no progression from production classifications into the logistics analysts classifications. Finally, there is no evidence that the work they perform requires the exercise of technical skills or that they possess any.15 In view of these fac- tors, we conclude that logistics analysts do not share a sufficient community of interest with unit employ- ees to warrant their inclusion in the unit, and accord- ingly, we shall exclude them. Reproductions Clericals, and Offset Printer, Leader, A, and B There are two principal reproductions centers at Deer Park. The first is on the first floor, is bounded by the publications department, a computer room, a 14 Contrary to the assertion in the Employer's brief, the record establishes that logistics analysts do not recommend which parts should be purchased. 15 These factors distinguish this case from Leland Electric Company, 126 NLRB 406, 409-411 (1960), and Loral Electronics Systems, supra, on which the Employer relies. plant stockroom, and a mailroom-first-aid area, and is situated on both sides of a wall dividing the general office area from the plant floor. The second is on the second floor in an office area adjacent to a blueprint control station. Clerks, an intermediate clerk, a se- nior clerk, reproductions clerks, and offset printers work in the first floor reproduction center, and re- productions clerks work in the second floor center. The first floor reproduction employees are super- vised by the supervisor of reproduction, whose office is in the general office area. The Supervisor of repro- duction also supervises photographers, whom the parties excluded from the unit by stipulation. The second floor reproduction employees are supervised by the supervisor of design and drafting, who also supervises nonunit employees. Both supervisors ulti- mately report to the department head of the Techni- cal Support Division, a division principally com- prised of such nonproduction sections as publica- tions, library, technical writing and documentation, industrial arts, drafting, and product design support. The first floor reproductions center performs re- productions work for the entire Deer Park operation, while the second floor reproductions area appears to serve the design and drafting departments primarily. There is some interchange between clericals in the first and second floor reproduction centers. In view of the fact that Deer Park reproductions personnel work either in or next to office areas, that their super- visors also supervise nonunit employees, that they work in physical proximity to nonunit employees, and that the Technical Support Division is primarily composed of office employees,16 we find that. the re- productions personnel in the first and second floor reproductions centers at Deer Park have a closer community of interest with office clerical than with plant clerical or production employees' and, accord- ingly, we shall exclude them from the unit. Since the record contains no information as to the work loca- tion or supervision of reproductions center personnel at the Famingdale and Melville plants, we shall per- mit them to vote subject to challenge. Inspection Coordinator, Leader, A There is one employee classified as inspection coordinator leader. He works in the receiving inspec- tion area on the main floor of the Deer Park plant, an area where AIL-purchased material is tested for conformity with AIL specifications. His functions are to assign work in the test area in accordance with instructions received from the supervisor of test, and 16 These factors distinguish this case from Brown Engineering Company. Inc.. 123 NLRB 1619 (1959). cited by the Employer, in which reproductions personnel were included in a production unit. AIL, A DIVISION OF CUTLER-HAMMER, INC. to assist employees, such as test or development tech- nicians, in setting up and carrying out test proce- dures. The Employer requires that the inspection coordinator have 10 years' experience in test proce- dures, but does not require formal technical experi- ence. In view of the fact that he provides guidance to technical employees in carrying out their duties and is required to have had prolonged experience in test operations, we find that the inspection coordinator leader is a technical employee. Since he works on the plant floor performing functions closely related to the production process, we shall include him in the unit. All employees classified as inspection coordinator A, a total of five, work in the production engineering section of the manufacturing engineering department on the second floor of the Deer Park plant. They are classed in the same weekly wage classification as are such technical classifications as instrument, test, and development technician A. Their principal function, which is similar to that performed by methodsmen, is to detail the proper sequence of inspection proce- dures involving the Employer's products and to assist professional engineers in the design of special test equipment and devices to aid in inspections. They are not required to have formal technical education, but must have from 8 to 10 years' experience in test procedures. Since the work they perform requires the exercise of discretion and highly developed technical skills, we find that they are technical employees. As technical employees, they share a community of in- terest with other technical employees engaged in var- ious test procedures. We therefore shall include them in the unit. Packaging Specialists and Packaging and Shipping Coordinator A packaging specialist and three packaging and shipping coordinators work in the packaging and shipping area on the main floor of the Deer Park plant, an area which is administered by the manufac- turing, planning and control department of the Prod- uct Support Divison. A packaging and shipping spe- cialist also works iri the packaging and shipping area of Ailtech at the Farmingdale plant. The packaging specialists maintain stores of material used in pack- aging the Employer's products, determine the correct packaging for such products, requisition packaging materials, and work either alone or with packaging and shipping clerks," who are included in the unit, in building and shipping complex packages. 17 There are no packaging and shipping clerks at Ailtech, so the packag- ing and shipping specialist there performs what would otherwise be their work. 207 The packaging and shipping coordinators perform clerical tasks connected with the packaging and ship- ping operation, such as preparing shipping forms, contacting shippers to pick up and deliver shipments, and so forth. Since employees in the classifications in question work on the plant floor, perform the same work as packaging and shipping clerks who are in- cluded in the unit, and work directly with the Employer's product, we find that they share a com- munity of interest with production employees suffi- cient to require their inclusion in the unit. Senior Expeditor, Expeditor, and Dispatcher Employees in these classifications, which are ad- ministratively within the manufacturing, planning, and control department of the Product Support Divi- sion, work in 12 dispatching and expediting stations located in various areas on the plant floor at Deer Park. These stations are not walled off from sur- rounding production areas and consist simply of benches on which records are kept relating to the items being manufactured in a given area. Expedi- tors' and dispatchers' function is to maintain records, fill production employees' requests for materials from stockrooms, and to take whatever action they can to facilitate the movement of products through the particular production stage they are in. Since ex- peditors and dispatchers perform clerical tasks asso- ciated with the production process and,work on the plant floor, we find them to be plant clericals and accordingly shall include them in the unit.18 Coordinator of Test Instrumentation and Instrument Coordinator Employees in these classifications are administra- tively part of the instrument resources section, manu- facturing engineering department, Product Support Division. Two employees are classified as coordina- tors of test instrumentation, one of whom works in an instrument depot area at the Deer Park plant and the other of whom divides his time between instru- ment,depot areas at Farmingdale and Melville. In- strument coordinators are assigned to each of the just-mentioned depot areas. The instrument re- sources depot at Deer Park is located in a building adjacent to the plant floor; a variety of employees in the unit also work in the building. The depots at Farmingdale and Melville are both in the shop areas. The function of coordinators of test instrumenta- tion and instrument coordinators is to disburse test instruments to and transfer them between various 18 Sperry Piedmont Company, supra, 859: Container Research Corporation. supra, 587. 208 DECISIONS OF NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD unit employees who need them, and to record the location of all instruments. Since employees in the classifications in question work in the same areas as production employees, handle test equipment used by unit employees in evaluating the performance of the Employer's products, and come into frequent contact with unit employees, we find that they are plant clerical employees who share a community of interest with production and maintenance employees sufficient to require their inclusion in the unit. Semiconductor Fabricator Development, Leader, A, B, and C Employees in this classification work in the Cen- tral Research Group, which is located at the Melville plant. Although this group is administratively not a part of the Employer's manufacturing operations-as noted earlier, the Central Research Group manager reports to the Employer's vice president for plans and business development, not to the vice president for operations-it is engaged in manufacturing. The product it manufactures is a highly sophisticated semiconductor which in turn is incorporated in a var- iety of the Employer's products. Semiconductor fab- ricators, along with such unit employees as engineer- ing associates and development and mechanical technicians, carry out the manufacturing process. Since semiconductor fabricators work with unit members and are actually engaged in production work, we shall include them in the unit. Plant Clericals Clericals in the classifications of clerk, intermedi- ate clerk, senior clerk, clerk-typist, technical clerk, and blueprint control clerk work on the plant floor in the three Long Island plants in such areas as material control, central dispatch, receiving inspection, pack- aging and shipping, and blueprint control station number five, and also work in plant areas where pro- duction personnel, such as superintendents or super- visors of shops, test, special repair activity, printed circuit assembly, manufacturing, or instrument re- sources, have their desks. Clericals in the just-men- tioned classifications also assist unit employees working in project planning, methods, and field oper- ations. As these clericals all work either in produc- tion areas or with unit employees in production-relat- ed areas, we find that they share a substantial com- munity of interest with unit employees requiring their inclusion in the unit. On the basis of the foregoing, the parties' stipula- tions, and the entire record, we find that the follow- ing employees of the Employer constitute a unit ap- propriate for the purposes of collective bargaining within the meaning of Section 9(b) of the Act. All hourly and weekly rated production, maintenance, plant clerical and technical em- ployees of the Employer (including those listed on Attachments A and B) at the Employer's plants located at Deer Park, Melville, and Farm- ingdale, Long Island, New York, but excluding all currently represented employees, all office clerical, professional, managerial, or sales em- ployees (including all weekly and monthly rated employees listed on Attachment C), all other employees, and all supervisors and guards as de- fined in the National Labor Relations Act. Although the unit we thus find appropriate differs from that sought by the Petitioner, we shall not dis- miss the petition inasmuch' as the Petitioner has not specifically disclaimed interest in such unit and the Petitioner has an adequate showing of interest in the larger unit. If the Petitioner does not now desire to participate in an election in the unit found appropri- ate herein, we shall permit it to withdraw its petition without prejudice upon written notice to the Region- al Director within 10 days from the date of this Deci- sion.
