Practice question
Three related production plants can readily support joint union administration. Their covered employees do the same work on the same pay structure and share a history and stake in bargaining. An objection identifies only different cities, not practical difficulty or conflicting interests. Which analysis follows San Miguel?
- Different cities alone need not defeat a combined appropriate unit
- A city boundary automatically invalidates the unit
- Shared bargaining leverage must be ignored
- Every worksite must have one employee union
- The employer’s map is conclusive
