New York and Presbyterian Hospital v. National Labor Relations Board, No. 10-1278 (D.C. Cir. 2011)
Annotate this CaseNew York Presbyterian Hospital ("Hospital") petitioned for review of a decision and order by the National Labor Relations Board ("Board") finding the Hospital in violation of section 8(a)(5) of the National Labor Relations Act ("Act"), 29 U.S.C. 158(a)(5), for failing to produce information requested by the labor union with which the Hospital had a collective bargaining agreement, the New York State Nurses Association ("NYSNA" or "Union"). The Hospital asserted that NYSNA failed to demonstrate the relevance of its request for information, attacked the evidentiary foundation of the Board's decision and order, and raised a number of additional arguments. The court held that NYSNA adequately demonstrated the relevance of its request for information where the nub of NYSNA's request for information was the Union's concern that non-Union NPs, licensed nurses, were performing bargaining unit work in the Hospital. The court also held that the Board's order that the Hospital be required to furnish information about shifts worked by bargaining unit NPs was supported by substantial evidence. The court rejected or declined to reach the Hospital's remaining arguments. Accordingly, the petition for review was denied and the court granted the Board's cross-application for enforcement.
