Court Rejects Appeal by GE On Rate Study
The Supreme Court declined to review a National Labor Relations Board finding that General Electric Co illegally refused to allow a union representative into a plant to make its own time study of work production standards and wage rates at the Hickory North Carolina plant. The dispute with Local 182 of the International Association of Electrial Workers centered on production standards and the motion time study used to set time values for job movements. The NLRB and an appeals court ruled GE’s refusal illegal, while GE sought Supreme Court review.
