Section R4-2-212. Intervention by a Subsequent Labor Organiza- tion

A.       An ALJ may allow a subsequent labor organization to inter- vene only at the initial session of the pre-election hearing on a

petition filed by the first labor organization and may place the subsequent labor organization on an election ballot only if the ALJ finds:

1.        The subsequent labor organization filed with the Board a petition for certification election together with a suffi- cient number of signed authorizations to meet the 30 per- cent showing of interest required to establish a question of representation under R4-2-210, and

2.        The subsequent labor organization filed its petition and authorizations not later than seven days before the sched- uled start of the initial session of the pre-election hearing.

B.       In determining the validity of an authorization filed by a sub- sequent labor organization, the Board shall use the same authorization period as that of the original petitioner.

C.       In determining the showing of interest for a subsequent labor organization, the Board shall use the same eligibility period as that of the original petitioner.
