NLRB Hearing On Butte Operators Seeks Supervisor Status
The five member NLRB in Washington will receive a 100000 word transcript from the Butte Telephone Operators strike against Mountain States Telephone. The issue is whether certain employees labeled supervisors belong to management or the union bargaining unit. Briefs are due Sept. 12, and the board faces a heavy caseload before issuing a decision. Picketing at the MST office continues while injunction action is considered. The hearing, led by Melton Boyd, opened Friday and closed Saturday with testimony from witnesses for the utility and one union witness.
