Excluded: All other employees, including managerial employees, confidential employees, guards, and supervisors as defined by the National Labor Relations Act, as amended. Others Permitted to Vote: The parties have agreed that Alberto Alaniz Perez, Carlos Lopez, Carlos Reyes, and Ana Puente may vote in the election, but their ballots will be challenged since their eligibility has not been resolved. No decision has been made regarding whether they are included in, or excluded from, the bargaining unit. The eligibility or inclusion of these individuals will be resolved, if necessary, following the election.

Unit Sought: Response to Item 5a: The Demand for Recognition (Exhibit B) lists the following “Included” and “Excluded” classifications: Employees Included: All full time and part time Chief Engineers, Assistant Chief Engineers, Stationary Engineers and Utility Engineers. Employees Excluded: All other classifications, including but not limited to guards, managers, confidential employees and supervisors as defined by the Act. Excluded: Despite the above, the RM Petitioner, Jones Lang LaSalle (the “Employer”), does not have job classifications that correspond to the listed titles of “Chief Engineers, Assistant Chief Engineers, Stationary Engineers and Utility Engineers.” The Employer believes the International Union of Operating Engineers, Local 39 (the “Union”) has filed a deficient RC Petition that must necessarily be withdrawn. Subject to, and notwithstanding the above, to the extent the Union’s RC Petition refers to Maintenance Managers, the Employer contends that all Maintenance Managers must be excluded from the unit, because they are supervisors pursuant to Section 2(11) of the National Labor Relations Act (the “Act”). 29 U.S.C. §§ 152(11). There are 21 Maintenance Managers who lead and supervise a team of Facilities Technicians and oversee the maintenance and repair activities for a campus of buildings. The Maintenance Managers are the Facilities Technicians’ direct managers who manage and supervise the Facilities Technicians and assign daily work orders and workloads to them. In addition to managing their day-to-day work, the Maintenance Managers manage the performance, hiring and firing, and perform other managerial duties over the Facilities Technicians. They also mentor Facilities Technicians, providing guidance, training, and support to enhance their performance and career growth. The Employer also contends that all other employees, including, but not limited to, guards, managers, confidential employees, and supervisors as defined by the Act must be excluded.
