Rhino Northwest, LLC v. National Labor Relations Board

Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit

Decided August 11, 2017No. 16-1089 Consolidated with 16-1115PublishedCited by 2 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtSrinivasan, Circuit Judge

Rhino Northwest, LLC, helps assemble equipment for concerts, festivals, and other events throughout the Pacific Northwest. A group of its employees called “riggers” sought to form a separate collective-bargaining unit. The National Labor Relations Board certified the proposed unit, and Rhino now challenges the Board’s certification. According to Rhino, the company’s other employees are so similar-to its riggers that a bargaining unit cannot consist solely of the latter. Because a legitimate basis exists for excluding non-riggers from the bargaining unit, we sustain the Board’s order.
