On October 17, 2013, the Board authorized pursuing an injunction against Merit House, LLC (Employer) for refusing to recognize and bargain with Service Employees International Union District 1199 (Union), which represented approximately 25 predecessor employees who were hired by the Employer. The Region was directed to seek a cease and desist order and an interim bargaining order.
On February 6, 2014, after the injunction petition was filed, the Regional Director approved a bilateral settlement agreement, whereby the Employer agreed to recognize and bargain with the Union.
